Sweatshirts are the coziest wardrobe staple that even Blair Waldorf approves of (proof- season 5 episode 14; can never forget her I love NY sweatshirt as I was desperately wanting to see her dress down). They are relaxed, cool and masculine but when paired appropriately, sweatshirts can be as chic as a pleated skirt. Plus, you can wear them to the office, parties, and night outs too.
Tips for dressing up a Sweatshirt
To Work-
- Wear it over a button-down tailored shirt with dark denim/formal pants like I did in look #2. Roll your sleeves if your sweatshirt comes with an elastic cuff and opt for solid or formal patterned sweatshirts like stripes/checks.
- Wear it over a pencil skirt with a fitted blazer and stilettos.
- Wear it under a sweater vest as a basic layer in winter with a blazer/winter coat and ankle boots.
Out with friends or party-
- Wear it over a flare or baby doll dress to give a skirt impression with oxfords for a polished look like I did in look#1 or with sneakers for a casual look.
- Wear it with a metallic dress or skirt with leather jacket and stilettos for a night out.
- Wear it with a printed or lace skirt with blazer vest or trench and tall boots.
Here are the 2 chic ways I paired my sweatshirts- I paired one solid and one printed sweatshirt to give you options!

![[AD] I am back with another amazing holiday gift idea for kids! If your little one is as obsessed with monster trucks as mine, you’ve got to check out the Monster Jam RC Mega Spider-Man truck, available at @target! V loves how fast it is—it even jumps over small obstacles and ramps. The all-terrain wheels make it cruise smoothly over grass, pebbles, and more, making it super fun and realistic. Best of all, it’s so easy to charge with the USB cable, so it’s always ready for playtime!
Shop this awesome truck at @target through the link in my LTK shop, 'dreamin.loud'

I love sweatshirts! I like wearing them like you do, particularly with jeans, leggings and very short skirts.
I only have some problem when it comes to coats! I have very long hairs and the hood creates a weird “hunchback” effect… so I solve the matter with a ponytail… that makes me look even younger 😉
I loved how you have styled these sweaters – they are my favourite and soooo comfy!
How fun. You make experimenting mix and match of clothing fun. These days, I am all about comfort. It must be a sign of getting old lol.
I love how you styled the hoodies! Especially for the first outfit. I definitely enjoy wearing hoodies, they’re so comfortable to wear.
I loved how you have styled these sweaters. I love the photographs and i enjoyed the post.

I love that you brought up Blair Waldorf. I myself am also a Gossip Girl fan. Good stuff!
Like your styling ideas here for wearing the sweatshirt in imaginative ways. They are such a staple in everyones wardrobe and its good to see that they are versatile too.
Hoodies are so versatile for layering and I especially love how you have layered it in the first photos underneath the mustard jacket. Great styling as always x
Love the different ways you styled your hoodie .. I wouldn’t have thought of them. I especially liked the casual look with jeans and the super cute yellow flats!
You are the sweetest! Great style tips. 🙂
I love the jacket and dress. Perfect for a nice spring day.
i love the yellow jacket on you
Great ways to wear hoodies! They look dressy the way that you have styled them!
Super cute – such a unique look!
Such great looks, these! I confess I know nothing of fashion, but these pictures are very inspiring!
This looks so good on you. I need to use your style suggestions when I shop for clothes again.
This is super cute and a good way to style, layer, and stay warm when you the days are all over the place.
Love how you paired it with that mustard jacket, so cute!

I love that first look with the sweater over the gingham dress! It’s super cute, and the colors go together so well!
I love how you mix and match your clothes! Simply add or remove a jacket, you get a new look every time. How amazing! I love the mustard colored jacket and/or sweatshirt over the dress idea.
I like your outfit. They are so me. Those shoes look so comfort.
Wow you look very cute in those outfits. I love it! I will definitely make it as my fashion inspirations.
This is so cute! I wish I liked the way that hoodies feel…they’re always too tight around my throat. Weird, I know. These are such fun ways to wear a hoodie, though!
