Over 40 Ways to Wear Hoodies for Comfort & Warmth

I’m normally not a hoodie person, but lately it has been so cold. A friend thoughtfully provided some hoodies to my husband and I before we went out one morning to rally for a local cause. We enjoyed these so much for their comfort and warmth! I then began looking for more ways to wear my hoodies:  this new one and the other three I already had. So now I have over 40 outfit ideas to share with you. Age doesn’t matter, as you will see.

Besides ways to wear pullover hoodies, zip-front hoodies and hoodie cardigans, I’m starting right off with a style tip.

TIP:  Try double hoodies. Wear two open-front hoodies over a graphic or solid t-shirt, camisole, thermal or top of your choice.

If  you try this style tip, you will probably be the only one in the room with this unique outfit! I was surprised that I couldn’t find a photo of this at all on the internet.

Ways to Wear Hoodies for Comfort & Warmth

A hoodie is generally paired with fleece pants, shorts, skorts, short jean skirts, track pants, jeans, joggers, sweatpants or matching bottoms if it came in a set. Cargo pants, twill pants, chinos, corduroys, faux leather pants, knit pants, leggings, yoga pants, lounge pants, midis or maxis and even gray flannel trousers are also good pairings. Geez, sounds like you can wear it with anything, right?! Top it all off with a classic wool coat or puffer when you go out in the cold. Common accessories are beanies, caps and sneakers.

Outfit Ideas Using Pullover Hoodies for Comfort & Warmth

1. Layer a biker jacket over a longer-length hoodie and black skinny or straight-leg jeans.
2. Layer a jacket or blazer over a short-sleeve hoodie over a long-sleeve t-shirt (even better if the sleeves have embroidered cuffs.) Wear with slim bottoms to offset any bulk. Or in place of the tee, just add arm warmers to the short-sleeve hoodie.
3. Top a hoodie, short-sleeve or long, with a jean jacket. A gray hoodie looks great with denim. Wear track pants or anything you like on the bottom.

   

4. Pair a hoodie with a skirt.
5. Wear a hoodie over a sequin maxi skirt. Add sneakers.
6. Warm up a dress by topping it with a hoodie. Add tights + sneakers or boots.
7. Layer a knit/sweatshirt blazer over a hoodie. Add your choice of bottoms.

   

8. Pair a short fitted hoodie with trousers & sneakers.
9. Layer a fleece vest over a hoodie. Add slim bottoms to avoid bulk.
10. A longer-length hoodie + leggings that match the color of your boots (such as Uggs.)

    

11. When you go out of the house, top your hoodie and jeans with a trenchcoat. Ballet flats keep it comfortable yet classy.
12. Top a classic black hoodie and midi skirt with a sleeveless blazer tied to give it shape. You might like to add leggings under the skirt & Mary Jane shoes for extra polish.
13. I love a gray hoodie under a jacket, especially a moto jacket!

Outfit Ideas Using Open-Front Hoodies (Zip-Front Hoodie or Hooded Cardigan) for Comfort & Warmth

Trucker jackets most commonly come in denim or leather. You can wear either a zip-front or pullover hoodie under one and dress it up or down.

1. Top a hoodie with a trucker jacket. Finish with bottoms of your choice.
2. Black faux leather pants and heels go well with a black hoodie or jacket.
3. Start with a black zip-front hoodie & black knit pants. Add a bright blue top & blue printed scarf (or other bright color.) You might like to finish with comfy sneakers.
4. Wear a hooded cardigan over a solid or graphic t-shirt & twill pants.

Zip-Front Hoodies or Hooded Cardigans With Jeans

1. A hoodie + a striped or graphic or solid tee + any color jeans.
2. A white tee + blue jeans +  a colored hoodie cardigan, such as green, with the front open as a jacket. Add accessories such as:  a studded belt, red handwarmers and a colorful silk scarf tied European style.
3. An ivory hoodie cardigan over an ivory lacy tee + blue jeans.

   

4. A hoodie + a crew-neck top + blue jeans. Add flats + dangle earrings, with hair up.
5. Zip up a hoodie and wear it as a top over blue jeans.
6. Combine earth tones, like a green hoodie cardigan + a brown camisole + blue jeans belted in brown.

   

7. Top a hoodie & jeans with a tweed jacket.
8. Wear a hoodie over jeans and a tee. Add a matching scarf.

Zip-Front Hoodies or Hooded Cardigans With Skirts & Dresses

1. Zip up a hoodie to wear as a top. Then tuck it into a long jean skirt. Top this with a long cardigan. Finish with boots.
2. Leave a hoodie open to wear as a jacket over a layering top & a crinkle skirt. Choose sneakers in the same color or tone as the hoodie.
3. Wear a hoodie over a tank or cami & a black maxi skirt. Finish with Converse or other sneakers.
4. Layer a hoodie and motorcycle jacket over a graphic tee & a maxi skirt. Finish with sneakers. You might like to carry a crossbody bag.
5. Belt a hooded cardigan in tan & brass-edged leather over a cream t-shirt and a short brown skirt. Add brown boots or brown woolly tights & moccasins.

More Ways to Wear a Zip-Front Hoodie

1. Layer a zip-front hoodie over an oversized shirt over a tank or tee with drawstring pants.
2. A hooded cardigan over a wrap top & lounge pants.
3. Layer a tweed jacket or blazer over a hoodie cardigan with bottoms of your choice.
4. Layer a hoodie over a lace-hem tee or top extender over leggings or yoga pants.
5. Wear a hoodie with any top under it + neutral-color pants, such as gray.
