4 Ways to add Life toyour Wardrobe with a Hoodie

Surprised? It may not be the first thing you would think of, but if you’ve been paying attention to fashion trends, you would know this secret. Hoodies are in, and they’re not just in. Fashion influencers and trendsetters are getting super creative with refreshing old styles and creating new styles with the help of a hoodie.

Hoodies are some of the best assets in your wardrobe. Here are some of the best ways you can dress and accessorize your hoodies.

Loungewear

Soft, warm, and durable, cotton is a great fabric, and a 100% cotton hoodie can provide you a whole lot of comfort. Even if all other fashion trends fall off the map, 100% cotton loungewear will never go out of fashion.

Loungewear is also here to stay because we’ll always need something comfortable to lounge around in and nothing is more comfortable than a hoodie and a pair sweatpants.

However, hoodies are not just for loungewear. They go further than that. They are a fashion item. This is why everyone is now pairing up sweatpants, a hoodie, or a sweater with much more polished pieces of fashion because of the unique effect created by the contrast.

Athleisure

Athleisure is the right balance between activewear and loungewear.

The versatility of athleisure is such that you can wear it at the gym but it is still comfortable enough to lounge around in. Since so many athletes train in cotton sweats, it just naturally adapts to the style.

Let’s look at “athleisure” as a fashion statement. Surely, you’ll have the perfect athleisure look if you wear cotton sweatpants and a hoodie at the gym. However, you can also cultivate the effectsimply for fashionable purposes.

Nothing cuts the athleisure look like a plain gray cotton hoodieand a pair of sweatpants, but if you want it to be fashionable, you can wear any color and still retain the athleisure look. Being able to change the color and the fit of the clothing allows you to mix and match it more easily with accessories.

Layering

Another really creative way you to dress up with a hoodie is by layering up.It gives you the freedom to break away from loungewear or athleisure but still keeps you comfortable.

For example, you can style a hoodie by wearing a longer jacket on top of it. This will add appeal and function to your outfit by keeping you warm and leveling off the display of your overall outfit.

You can wear a hoodie and dress it up with a leather jacket or a long coat. When you wear the jacket open, the hoodie will provide a sobering effect to the outfit and also add complexity.

You could wear a denim jacket over your favorite plain hoodie, jeans and sneakers for an urban, daring and dashing look. It will also keep you warm and layered.

A wool coat or a plaid jacket with your hoodie can give you a more polished look.

Formal

An increasing number of people are now pairing formal wear with hoodies. You may feel that formal attire that doesn’t seem to blend with the causal look of a hoodie. However, many people can now be seen pairing a hoodie with slacks and a blazer.

This look is very popular with patterned or textured fabrics, for example, tweed blends well with a plain hoodie. In addition, when a fully-formal look may seem “overdressed”, pairing your formals with a hoodie creates a toned-down effect to the entire ensemble while making a style statement.
