Hoodies are a blessing of God. Perfect for any occasion as long as it is not hot outside. The comfort that hoodies bring is incomparable. The temperature is dropping and every day seems like a good opportunity to rock a hoodie.
But, that does not mean you wear a repetitive style, it gets boring for the eye. Instead, here are 30 unique as well as simple ways to style your hoodies. Even the simplest ones can look brilliant if worn in creative ways. A hoodie is a sweatshirt with a hood. The word ‘hood’ is derived from the Anglo-Saxon word ‘hōd’, which is also the root of the English word ‘hat’. Medieval monks started wearing hooded tunics and robes. I bet they had no idea that these would become a fashionable and staple piece of garment in people’s wardrobe centuries later.
How To Wear Hoodies Like A Pro
Styling Tips
- For a sharp look, you can always opt for a well-fitted hoodie.
- Experiment with different layering options, especially a leather jacket over your hoodie since it looks totally swag.
- If you don’t like the idea of a fitted hoodie, you can instead pair it with a tailored trouser.
- To add some personality to your favorite old hoodie, try layering it with a flannel shirt and you’ll love the new look it gets.

Not all styles of hoodies will suit you if you’re short or fuller around the middle. Hoodie dresses, for example, would be complicated options for such body shapes. Loosely fitted and oversized hoodies are also a no-no because with a petite figure, you sort of get lost in them, instead, you should go for well-fitted ones. When it comes to necklines, hoodies with V-necks should be preferred as they make you look taller.

Your clothes can speak out loud and you will not even need to open your mouth. Hoodies are a perfect way to convey what you stand for to the world. Many come with an inspirational or funny message that makes your outfit more fun. But, be careful before buying. If there is a negative, controversial or offending text on a hoodie do not buy it. And if it really crosses the limit you should raise your voice against the brand through social media (or another hoodie, perhaps?) You can customize your hoodies to say what you want it to. But be sure to spread love, not hate.
Your hoodie can shut stupid or annoying people off without you having to tell them. Or if a friend has an annoying habit that you wish they would quit but you do not tell them how without hurting their feelings, give subtle messages through your outfit. Like this one that says, “Sorry, I can’t my bed needs me” it’s perfect to cancel plans and letting them know that you prefer your sleepover hanging out with people, ew.
