A turtleneck top is probably one of the most versatile items of clothing you’ll find in your closet. They are perfect for layering with other clothes or wearing on their own. You really can’t go wrong with a turtleneck top. If you’re ever wondering how to take your outfit to the next level, here are the best ways to style a turtleneck top!
Our first way to style a turtleneck top is fashionable, casual, and professional-looking at the same time, and it’s super simple to recreate. Pair your favorite turtleneck with a long neutral-colored coat and high-waisted jeans for a perfect fall or winter look. Throw on some combat boots, statement earrings, or gold jewelry for an even bolder look. This turtleneck look is great for anything from a coffee date with a friend to a casual day at the office, and is easily customizable for whatever suits your taste best!
One of the best things about turtleneck tops is that they are perfect for layering under other clothes! A great way to do this is with a button-down shirt, which will give a chic look to your turtleneck outfit. This look is also perfect for that brutal walk to work during those colder winter months, but doesn’t give off the impression that you’re wearing several layers. For added warmth, throw on another layer with a long coat and pair with skinny jeans and boots. Don’t forget to accessorize with some cool shades and a funky belt!
One of the issues I’ve always had with wearing sleeveless or summery jumpsuits is I never can find the right weather to wear them in. It’s either too cold to go sleeveless or too warm to wear long pants. But, this turtleneck-jumpsuit combination is an ideal way to wear your favorite jumpsuit in those cooler months while still feeling covered. Pick a neutral-colored turtleneck top to match any color jumpsuit! Accessorize with matching booties and a handbag to complete your stylish look!
As someone who tends to choose comfortable clothes over anything else, this next way to style a turtleneck top is a personal favorite. With this cardigan-turtleneck look, you’ll be cozy and cute at the same time. Choose any neutral colors to wear together or rock a brightly-colored turtleneck with a neutral fluffy cardigan. Pair with denim jeans or a skirt, and add some bling with gold or silver hoop earrings. Like with a few of the other styles, this look is perfect for those icy winter months when all you want to do is curl up with a blanket and go back to bed!
Everything about this next way to style a turtleneck top screams fall and couldn’t be more perfect for it. For those months when the days are getting shorter and the temperature is getting colder, you can count on your turtleneck to come to your rescue! Layer it under a skater dress, a maxi dress, or any type of dress for added color, texture, and warmth. Slip on some tights if you like, or wear with a taller pair of boots to keep your legs covered. If you have a neutral-colored turtleneck top, this looked could be styled with any shape and color of dress, so don’t be afraid to layer it up!
Styling this next turtleneck outfit is fairly easy; all you need is a cute skirt! The simplicity of this look emphasizes both the turtleneck and whatever skirt you choose, and it’s a great base to add accessories to. Mix and match the colors of your turtleneck and skirt, or go neutral and add some flair with a scarf or jewelry. Long and multi-strand necklaces were practically made for turtlenecks and add a pop of color that looks so chic. If you don’t have a multi-strand necklace, just layer more than one necklace on top of your turtleneck for a really pretty detail-oriented look.
You can’t really go wrong with most turtleneck top styles, and this is especially true for this next look. Though this look just consists of a thin turtleneck layered with an oversized t-shirt, it still deserves just as much attention as any other turtleneck look. This style draws all the attention to your accessories, so this is a great chance to wear that vibrant belt or huge hoop earrings. In my opinion, this style would look best with skinny jeans and sneakers, but it’s so simple and casual that you can’t really go wrong!
If you’re looking to stay trendy but professional-looking at the same time, I’ve got the perfect turtleneck style for you! This look is great for a day at work, lunch with friends, or anything in between. Choose your favorite black or white-colored turtleneck to match any color and pattern blazer that you have. Wear with blue or dark denim jeans to highlight the colors of your top, and add a belt for detail. Don’t forget to layer up those necklaces and be sure to add some fun, geometric earrings!
Stay with me on this one, because I know it’s technically not a top, but I couldn’t resist! A turtleneck sweater dress can be styled in so many ways, so I thought it was only fair that I included it. A neutral-colored dress can look simple at first glance, but it gives you the opportunity to jazz up your outfit with colorful accessories that you might not get the chance to wear otherwise! Break out those over-the-knee boots for when the weather is cooler and don’t forget a brightly colored handbag for that splash of color. You could also throw on a denim jacket or long coat for added color and texture.
Our final way to style a turtleneck top is another personal favorite, probably because I’m always cold and this outfit is sure to keep anyone warm. This long faux fur coat on top of a simple white turtleneck is not only charismatic, but it’ll also keep you nice and toasty when the snow is falling or on a cool fall day. It’s a pretty simple look altogether, but the contrast between the faux fur and the turtleneck will give that chic look that you’ll never want to take off. And no matter the color and texture, you’re sure to find a look similar to this one that’ll help you style your turtleneck top!
