4 Tips to Styling Your Wardrobe’s Secret Weapon

It sits in your sweater drawer, dark and unassuming. You might reach for it on an off day when you’re chilling in your sweats, but a black sweatshirt is more versatile than almost any piece you own.

Not sure how to style this perfect basic? We’re breaking down 4 easy looks to elevate your inky sweatshirt to a high fashion level.

Athleisure Forever

Athleisure has officially entered the dictionary, so it’s time to cement it into your fashion lexicon. Attaining the look is as easy as it is comfortable—start with a pair of fashion-forward gray or navy sweatpants with a tapered ankle, add a black sweatshirt with a designer logo, and finish it off with a beanie and luxury kicks. This too-cool-for-school look is ideal for a day of shopping in a chic neighborhood, but it’s just as good for lounging on the couch.

Girly Grunge

If ‘90s fashion and girly pleasures are your jam, have fun with your femininity in a look that’s equal parts soft and tough. Your black sweatshirt, thrown over a floral minidress with thigh-high socks and combat boots, makes a sexy-sweet combination that’s perfect for a rock concert or a movie date. Top with a pin-plastered denim jacket to complete the look.

Punk Rock

Black is the signature color of punk rockers the world over, communicating all things cool and counter-culture. The punk look isn’t so hard to achieve—just pile on black, black and more black. Be sure to mix up textures by donning your black sweatshirt atop a patterned dark button down with inky wet-look leggings, tough biker boots and a moto or faux-fur jacket.

Polished Prep

Preppy style isn’t about looking hoity-toity or precious—it’s about classic, all-American style that has stood the test of time. The simplicity of a black sweatshirt pairs naturally with timeless preppy pieces like an Oxford shirt in crisp white and tailored khaki chinos. Leather loafers and a waxed jacket keep you ready for a walk along the shore, no matter the weather.

You’d be hard-pressed to find a piece that’s more functional, flattering and easy to style than a black sweatshirt. Try these outfit ideas out and then get started whipping up your own combinations.

This all-star piece can do just about anything.
