Every woman should have jeans and a white t-shirt in her closet. Jeans and a tee are the basis for an infinite number of casual outfits. It’s so easy to add scarves, cute bags, simple cardigans or accessories to make a look. Plus throw on some trendy slip-on sneakers or unique glittery lace-ups, like these from Keds and Kate Spade, and you’ve got casual comfortable on-trend style! Easy peasy!
Plus Size Casual Outfits with Jeans and A White T-Shirt
These outfits include my favorite plus sized t-shirts! I love love love t-shirts from Yours Clothing! I just have to talk about these plus sized tees for a minute. Last summer I was on the hunt for the best t-shirt because I was sick of tees that cling to me in all the wrong places, shrink even when washed cold and hung to dry, and/or fall apart after their first wash!
Tip: T-shirts that are 100% cotton will cling less, wear longer, and feel cooler. So check your labels!
The Yours Clothing plus size tees are very reasonably priced, 100% cotton (although they may have some versions with other fibers, so check before you order), excellent quality, and come in a ton of varieties and colors! They come in sizes 14 – 34. I recently bought 6 of these 3/4-length sleeved tees in various colors and love them! They ship from the UK, but arrive faster than most clothes I get from US stores, I swear. You should try them!
Plus Size Causal Outfit Idea:
Aqua Scarf and Leopard Sneakers {+ Jeans and a Tee}
If you read my post on color theory, you’d know that blue-green colors, like aqua and turquoise, go well with red-orange colors, such as tan or most leopard print. The plus size outfit idea below incorporates this complementary color pairing. Remember to reference a color wheel and this post if you are looking for tips on color combinations.

Plus Size Causal Outfit Idea:
Chambray Shirt and Pale Pink Necklace
{+ Jeans and a Tee}
I like chambray on denim, rather than denim on denim. A chambray shirt is a staple as it is so versatile. You can wear one open as a light layer. Wear it tucked into a skirt for a casual chic look that you can still take to the office. Or tie it in the front, cropped, with shorts in warmer months.

My biggest concern is having something fall out. If I pull my tops down enough to keep the belly covered, then the girls are going to pop out! So I move, tug, move, tuck…repeat.

I’m having a hard time finding trendy shirts/t-shirts that the sleeves are too short and shows my flabby arm fat. Any suggestions where I can buy stylish shirts that the sleeves come little longer? I wear a XL in most shirts and love the look of Calvin Klein .
Hi Shari. I too am always looking for elbow length and 3/4 length sleeves! The tees I mention above are available in 3/4 length: http://www.yoursclothing.com/white-scoop-neckline-basic-t-shirt-with-34-sleeves-p I love them!

I’ve been searching for a white tee that isn’t too thin. Everything I find requires a tank or cami worn underneath. Is this tee see-through?
Yes, in my opinion, you can get away with a nude t-shirt bra under these. My #1 pick and #2 pick. I am still doing research to find my best pick. It used to be those from Yours, but the shipping cost went way up.
