The design maven wore a dark gray T-shirt with ruffle sleeves, cropped mid-rise blue jeans, sandals, and a baseball cap in a recent Instagram Reel. It doesn’t get more basic than jeans and a tee, but Gaines made a few subtly smart decisions with her styling to upgrade the look in this case. The ruffles add movement and personality, while the slimmer fit of the top is more flattering and easier to loosely tuck at the front like she did.
We’ve already given you pointers onpicking out cool jeansthat look like hers, so we’re here to focus on that unfussy ruffle-sleeve top Gaines wore. There are countless variations at Amazon, but here are a few that remind us of hers and can be styled the same way.

This $20 tee looks a lot like the one Gaines wore on Instagram, with the major difference being the neckline. This one has a looser V-neck instead of a tighter crew neck, but the color and vibe are spot on, especially if you tuck the front and let the back hang out. The wider neck just means it will look great with your favorite necklace. If you don’t like the dark gray option, it comes in 30 other colors and patterns (thewhite oneis only $15).
If you like the crew neck and slimmer fit of Gaines’ top, you might like this light gray option. Its hemline hits just below the waist, and it should work with the partial tuck theFixer Upperstar used. The sleeves have three layers of ruffles for even more movement. “Very flattering and such beautiful colors,”wrote one reviewerwho has it in three shades. “The sleeves help balance my shape.”

This option is slightly more dressy than what Gaines wore because of its lace fabric and the nice pom pom detailing on the sleeves and body. It’s got built-in lining, the fabric is smocked at the neckline and chest, and there’s a keyhole opening on the back under the adjustable tie closure. More than 2,700 Amazon shoppers have given it a five-star rating, withone buyer calling it“super comfortable” and saying it’s “one of [their] favorite go-to tops.”
