With all this time at home, I fall back on a classic, comfortable style of Jeans, a T-shirt, and a Cardigan. With the stretch in jeans nowadays, they are as comfortable as my workout pants. A t-shirt is easy to launder and with a cardigan, I have an extra layer at night or when the fog rolls in here in San Francisco.
This is basically my uniform these days. It feels pulled together and comfortable! You don’t need to buy anything new…you probably have these already in your closet.
And the good news is we have…
Six Bloggers Show Us How To Style Jeans
Their links are at the end of the post.
Here’s how I style my jeans three ways:
Cuffed Blue Jeans, Long Cardigan, Van’s Slip-Ons
This is super comfortable to throw on to work from home or take Chief on a walk. I don’t always wear jewelry (that’s for you guys 🙂 but I do put on a little makeup as it makes me feel better.
Banana Republic blue jeans great price now • leopard print t-shirt similar • lightweight duster cardigan with pockets • Van’s reasonably priced leather slip-on

Wide Leg Faded Levi Button Fly Jeans, Madewell T-Shirt
I’m not going to lie, these jeans were baggier on me before COVID. But they are still comfortable. My son said, “Mom, you are so stylish!” Little does he know I wore some like these twenty-five years ago. They are back!
T-shirt similar • Belt • Levi Jeans with raw hem • Wood Bead Bracelets from Target • Cole Haan Sandals
Black Jeans, Cardigan, Gap T-Shirt, Leopard Belt
Cardigan • Favorite Basic Gap t-shirt • leopard belt • Paige skinny black jeans (these still look good after a year or more…I wash on cold, inside out and don’t put them in the dryer) • disposable mask $5 for 50 (the price has really come down–I tuck one in my purse, car, jacket)
J. Crew New Jackie Fitted Cardigans
I got the black cotton crepe cardigan (above and below) on sale and I love it. I’d like it in every color. The material feels like it will stay new looking longer than the old cotton Jackie cardigan.
And that’s my Classic Jeans, T-shirt, and Cardigan comfortable combo.

Gail says
Well, I agree, there is nothing better than a great pair of comfortable jeans. And now that they have stretch in them, they’re my favorite thing to wear. I love how you styled your jeans, and Tommy’s right, you, my dear, are tres chic! I think one thing that really make a causal outfit like the ones you’ve shared have that special edge, is a few pieces of great jewelry. My favorite right now that it’s so warm, are my jean shorts and skirts. I really enjoyed all the bloggers posts, you all did a wonderful job at giving us inspiration on wearing our jeans.
Mary Ann Pickett says
Wow, Gail…so great you are wearing shorts…you’ve got that cute little figure.
Kelley says

Hi Mary Ann,
You do have a stylish, classic look! I love it. This is my uniform most days, too! So much nicer than sweatpants and I agree just as comfortable. I love my stretchy jeans! With fog in the morning and cool evenings I never go anywhere without a sweater or lightweight jean jacket, even on my back deck!
Hope you are doing fine up there in the city!
XO Heidi
