What To Wear With Joggers & Sweatpants
1. Tank Tops
For a super casual jogger outfit, head over to the basics: a tank top, a pair of sporty joggers, and a pair of sneakers. This combo is a great base outfit that you can use to play around with other outerwear pieces like a denim jacket, a blazer, or even a trench coat.
You can wear this outfit as it is, or your can add more layers to dress it up. A tank top is a great way to show off your arms, waist, chest and shoulders especially when it’s warm – overall, it’s a great piece to wear.
Want to wear joggers on a casual date night? No problem. Simply swap out your sneakers with a pair of heels and accessorize with a chic designer handbag.
2. Crop Tops
A crop top is a great option if you want a top with a little bit more breathing room. You can choose any crop top there is, but if you want something with personality and edge, then we suggest opting for a cropped graphic t-shirt.
Crop tops are also one of the best clothing items to wear with joggers because they can easily be layered over them without being baggy or bulky at all, as they show off a bit of your waist.
If you don’t have any crop tops in your wardrobe then now is the time to invest in some new ones as soon as possible!
To complete your outfit, simply throw your hair up in a messy bun, add a sporty crossbody bag, a pair of sneakers, and you’re all set.
3. Bralettes & Bandeau Tops
Now that the weather is warming up, sometimes you just want to wear something that’s minimal but not lewd. The best option? A sporty bralette or a bandeau top!
Now this look is ultra sporty – in fact, you can even wear this to the gym if you really want to. And if you’re planning to wear this out in public but you’re worried about the amount of exposed skin, you can always layer this outfit with one of those plain button-down shirts you have in your wardrobe.
What a pretty stylish look with minimal effort!
4. Flannel Shirts
A flannel or a plaid shirt is another great option for layering. It’s a very casual piece and can be paired with joggers, jeans, or even shorts. Flannels are perfect in the fall because they’re warm and cozy but also allow you to layer up when it gets colder out.
Flannels are nice to have around because they come in different colors and patterns so you can find one that fits your personal style! A basic black or brown flannel is always a good choice when choosing an oversized layered look like this one.
5. Denim Jackets
While denim jackets are an essential part of any wardrobe, they can be worn in so many different ways. They can be worn over a t-shirt or blouse, with jeans, joggers or sweatpants, and even sneakers or heels.
This is also a super cute travel outfit to wear to the airport.
6. Turtlenecks
The turtleneck is a classic fall staple. It’s great for layering, and it looks super cute with a pair of joggers too! You can definitely pair this one with a trench coat or as bomber jacket for the colder season.
We recommend going for a turtleneck bodysuit so that you won’t have to worry about tucking in your top – plus, you won’t look bulky at all!
7. Teddy Jackets
A fuzzy teddy jacket is a great way to add a fun element to your outfit. It also works well in cold weather as it adds warmth and comfort.
It’s definitely dressier (and perhaps a little more feminine) than puffer jackets, so this one is a great option if you want to appear “softer”.
A tank top or a bodysuit would be an ideal top to wear underneath this jacket.
8. Cropped Sweaters & Sweatshirts
Want to wear a crop top but it’s too cold? Enter the cropped sweater. Cropped sweaters are the perfect garment to wear with sweatpants. They’re cozy and warm, but still look great on their own.
This is also a very comfortable option if you want to stay in at home, but also chic enough to wear outside. How versatile!
9. Matching Co-Ord Sets
Co-ords are a great way to style joggers, because they allow you to make a statement without trying too hard. Plus, co-ords and monochrome outfits are very trendy right now.
This also allows you to save so much time when dressing up since you won’t have to worry about pairing your top to your bottom. The best part is that this also doubles as a cute travel outfit, especially when you’re in for a long roadtrip or a long-haul flight!
10. Faux Leather Jackets
A leather jacket is a great option if you want to go for an alternative, rugged look. Faux leather can be worn with anything, from dresses to jeans to skirts.
Leather jackets are a classic, but they’re also edgy – a stark contrast from the comfortable look of jogger pants.
11. Blazers
Did you know that you can wear your sweatpants and joggers with a sleek blazer? Yes, you definitely can!
This is a super cute streetwear outfit that’s currently making rounds on the internet, and you should try it out if super-casual outfits are not for you. We recommend going for an oversized blazer for a truly effortlessly chic, streetwear-inspired look.
We don’t recommend wearing a fitted blazer as this can look awkward against the baggy silhouette of joggers.
12. Hoodie + Long Coat
If you’re dressed in a matching co-ord and feel like you look too casual to be meeting up with friends or to be running any errands, the easiest way to fix this is by layering your look with a long coat. This completely transforms your look!
Pair your favorite long coats with either sneakers for a casual look, or opt for something more elevated, like minimalist mules, for example. Combat boots work well too for a slightly more grunge-inspired look, as you can see from the example above!

Jogger pants work for a variety of occasions and you might be surprised at how much wear you can get from this comfy, athleisure garment.
