Yes, Your Hoodie Can Be Chic—Here Are 15 Options to Prove It

Consider this the unsung hero of your wardrobe.

By Grace Hunter

Hoodies get a bad rep. They’re the items in your wardrobe that tend to be the least of your concerns and—let’s be honest—aren’t the first pieces that come to mind when you think of fashion-forward staples. But what if a hoodie could actually be your closet’s secret weapon? The one you turn to when you are searching for an added layer to create an unexpected, casually cool cold-weather ensemble? These have the ability to transform your outfit into something effortless because, yes—your hoodie can do more than just take you to and from your workout class.

Maybe it’s time to retire your old college hoodies for something more elevated—or, at the very least, not tattered from wear. Paired with trousers or your beloved jeans, a fresh hooded sweatshirt can instantly change your whole look. Want to dress it up even more? Finish your outfits with a chic pair of kitten heels. This closet staple doesn’t have to be the item that hides in the back of your closet. Instead, let it be the stylish addition you’ve been searching for. Below, find 15 of the chicest hoodies you can shop right now.
