Three Different Ways to Style a Utility Jacket for Fall

A utility jacket is a classic wardrobe staple. It can be worn in (almost) all seasons, depending where you live. I own a green one, which seems to be pretty classic, but they come in all sorts of great colors (I’m loving the burnt orange one from target!). I wear mine in spring, summer & fall & it is so versatile. I bought my jacket years ago, when I was still in college, from Old Navy. It has held up well for me and I will be linking similar options. Old Navy has a bunch of different green jackets in different styles including cropped, long, hooded, soft twill, & more utility-like materials. They also come in all sorts of colors & make me want to buy a new one in pink or gray! Ha!

I am styling my jacket three different ways. I hope that this will give you some inspiration for styling any style or color utility jacket you own! (I apologize in advance for my dusty mirror, I didn’t realize until after how absolutely dusty it was!)

  1. With stripes
    I feel like this is the most classic of all. Who doesn’t love a good army green color with stripes?! I paired it with my power straight jeans and my brown mules.

2. With a dress or a skirt
I loveeee a jacket with a skirt or dress. It gives it more casual vibes and keeps you warm. This skirt is new from Old Navy and I am in love with the print! I thought the green and the rust color of this skirt paired nicely together.

3. With leggings & a graphic tee
The most casual outfit of them all, but so very cute! You could also switch out regular leggings for a faux pair with booties just to step it up a bit. This casual graphic tee is the perfect color for fall & says “Talk Pumpkin Spice to me”.
My sneakers are sold out, unfortunately, but I will link some similar options.

1 Chunky Knit Cardigan Styled 3 Ways

I know, I know, it’s only the first day of September and I’m already talking about cardigans, fall & boots, BUT I live in northern NY, and it’s felt like fall here for over a week now. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure we’ll have another warm-up and I’ll be back in a swimsuit by next week, but if it feels like fall, I am DRESSING FOR FALL. Because honestly, fall is the best season to dress for (in my opinion ;)) and it doesn’t last long enough!

The cardigan I am styling is an oversized bobble sleeve cardigan from chicwish. I am wearing the xs/small and it fits large, but it is so cozy and well-made. It’s a heavy knit & is perfect for fall and winter if you live in a cold climate like I do!

All the links for my outfits will be at the bottom of this post.

I paired the cardigan with this boho blouse I recently got at target. I am obsessed with this blouse & will be wearing it constantly. I’m wearing my Just Black denim from my latest FlipFit box (more on that in my instagram highlights under Flipfit, if you’re interested!) and they are so good. I haven’t been able to find a link for them, but I will link a similar Target pair. My mules are also old, but I’m linking a great pair on sale for $30 from Nordstrom Rack.

Spoiler alert: this is my favorite outfit of this styling session. I love a dress with a cardigan and booties. I also love pairing black with brown to give it a warm feel! So cozy. Dress is old from Old Navy, but it’s such a classic Old Navy silhouette and I was able to find a similar one to link! Sock boots are also old, but I linked similar since they are everywhere right now too.

Final look is skinny jeans, perforated booties, and a gray tank with a lace neckline detail. I don’t wear skinny jeans that often right now (I find straight leg more comfortable) but I DO love skinnies with a chunky cardigan so I had to style this outfit!

Tell me your favorite outfit in the comments or over on my Instagram!
