The classic combination of jeans and a t-shirt is undeniably reliable, especially considering how easy it is to put your own spin on the look. Add edge with a moto jacket, a hint of playfulness with a vintage cardigan, or a polished vibe in the form of a well-tailored blazer and pumps. But if you're desperate to find a fresh way to style jeans and a t-shirt, look no further than Kendall Jenner's latest outfit.

The 23-year-old model was photographed on the streets of Paris on March 13 wearing a classic outfit formula. The model sported straight-leg, mid-rise denim in a retro-inspired light wash that she paired with a form-fitting white t-shirt. Although Jenner surely could have dressed down the look with the addition of sneakers and an oversized sweatshirt, she opted for a few sophisticated finishing touches instead.

The ultimate celebrity-approved wardrobe staple, Jenner layered with a longline, black blazer that featured strong shoulders, a single-button closure, and a cinched waist. She accessorized with crisp, white booties by Balenciaga for a sleek finishing touch. The model kept it casual by donning her natural waves, minimal makeup, and a pair of black sunglasses.

While Jenner's status as a well-known supermodel often gains her access to intricate designer items, one-of-a-kind ensembles, and runway-worthy looks, her simple outfits are the most relatable. She's no stranger to the concept of dressing up a pair of jeans, whether she adds an elegant blazer or a daring leather trench. That's not to say she doesn't enjoy a more comfortable look, like her recent experimentation with zebra-print trousers, a black puffer, and athletic sneakers.

The expected combination of jeans and a t-shirt doesn't have to be boring. In fact, taking notes from Jenner's latest look can bring new life to the pieces you've had in your closet for ages. Style your favorite vintage denim with a basic white t-shirt, a luxe-looking blazer, and patent booties. Work beach spray through your hair and finish it with a lightweight, tinted moisturizer à la Jenner, or take the look to the next level with a voluminous ponytail, smoky eyeshadow, glossy lips, and layered necklaces.

Since the market can seem saturated with an overwhelming amount of options when it comes to basics, The Zoe Report went ahead and rounded up the must-have jeans, t-shirts, and blazers for spring. Shop them all, ahead.
