5 Ways to Wear Your Flannel Shirt

1. Love it with Leggings

An easy way to wear your flannel shirt is to pair it with a comfy pair of leggings. My SPANX faux leather leggings are my favorite leggings to wear in the Fall and Winter. And while they also look great with anything, they pair perfectly with my plaid flannel. (If you need help figuring out how to wear faux leather leggings, you can always check out my blog post here!)

This look could be worn as seen below, or you could switch out the loafers with a pair of cute sneakers. You could also dress the look up a bit by adding some black OTK boots (these are the ones I wear), and add a belt around the waist for some definition.

2. Darling in Denim

Another great option for wearing your flannel shirt is to style it with your favorite pair of jeans. Denim looks great with a flannel shirt. I paired it here untucked over a Target tank top, a pair of skinny jeans and my favorite black OTK boots.

You could switch out the shoes for some loafers or other flats for a more casual look. And you could even throw on your favorite pair of trendy sneakers this way too.

3. Dress it up in Boots

These boots were made for walking . . . into your closet and right up to your flannel shirt! Hahaha!

But seriously, boots of any kind look great with a flannel shirt. Tucking your shirt into a skirt and wearing with some OTK boots makes for a trendy, dressier look.

Booties look super cute with a flannel shirt too. You can wear with a skirt like I did below, or pair with jeans. Throw on a cardigan or puffer vest and your Fall look would be complete.

4. Define it with a Dress

I love pairing my flannel shirt with a T-shirt dress. This is a perfect outfit for transitioning into the Fall weather.

You can have the flannel tied around your waist, or wear open and untucked (or even knotted) if it gets chilly. Not only is this look cute, but it’s super comfy!

5. Layer It

If you decide to wear your flannel open or untucked, a tank top or short/long sleeve t-shirt is an easy and versatile option to pair with it. This is especially useful in the Fall when layering is often needed due to weather changes.

I like to pair my flannel with a tank when wearing comfy joggers for a casual look, or even tied around my waist with a tee.

If you wear your flannel over a long sleeve tee in the colder months, adding a jean jacket or puffer vest to top things off would be perfect too!
