August 19, 2025 5 Ways to Style: A Men’s Cardigan

A men’s cardigan is one of those fashion pieces that can effortlessly balance comfort with style. Turn to one when dressing for a casual coffee run or heading out to a dinner date; it can be styled in endless ways to fit the moment. Here are 5 easy ways to style them this fall.

1. Classic & Clean

Pair your cardigan with a crisp white t-shirt, slim-fit jeans, and sneakers for a no-fuss everyday outfit. This combination is simple, modern, and highlights the cardigan as the perfect lightweight layer.

2. Office Ready

Swap out your blazer for a cardigan layered over a button-up shirt and tie. Add tailored trousers and dress shoes, and you’ve got a polished work-ready look that feels approachable but still professional.

3. Weekend Casual

Heading out for brunch or errands? Layer a cardigan under a bomber and pair with light wash denim. Finish with boots or slip-on sneakers for an outfit that’s equal parts comfortable and stylish.

4. Elevated Layers

On chillier days, layer your cardigan under a long coat. This adds both warmth and depth to your outfit, especially when paired with dark denim and Chelsea boots. It’s an easy way to take your layering game up a notch.

5. Street Style Edge

A men’s cardigan doesn’t have to feel traditional. Wear it with a graphic tee, joggers, and statement sneakers for a modern, streetwear-inspired twist. Top it off with a beanie or crossbody bag to complete the look.
