The short answer
Here is how to style joggers women love for every plan: balance the relaxed leg with a fitted or tucked top, then add one structured layer, like a blazer or a cropped jacket. Choose shoes for the plan: clean sneakers for weekends, pointed ankle boots for work, heels for nights out. Faux leather joggers dress up most easily.
Joggers started at the gym, but they no longer have to stay there. The trick is the fabric. A cotton sweatpant always reads casual, however you style it. A faux leather jogger keeps the same easy fit, with an elastic waist and gathered cuffs, yet it looks polished enough for the office or a dinner date. Its smooth sheen does the dressing up for you, so the rest of the outfit can stay simple. Color matters too. Black is the most flexible shade and pairs with cream, navy and prints. Caramel and rose gold feel warmer and suit fall neutrals, like latte, camel and ivory. Fit is the last piece. A high waist lets you tuck a top in neatly, and a tapered leg keeps the shape clean above your shoes. Every look below uses pieces from our Fall Collection, so you can copy an outfit as it is or swap in what you already own.
How to style joggers women love: what you need
1. Choose a faux leather jogger
Start with the pair. Our On My Way Jogger Pants are high-waisted vegan faux leather with a soft sheen, in rose gold or caramel. The Thinking Out Loud Paper-bag Jogger Pants are black, with a high-rise paperbag waist and a tapered leg. A paperbag waist is a gathered top edge that cinches you in. Black is the easiest pair to dress up.
2. Keep the top fitted or tucked
Joggers are relaxed through the hip, so the top should stay close to the body or be tucked in. A bodysuit stays tucked all day. Our After Hours Bodysuit is navy faux leather with ruffle shoulders. For a warm latte shade, try the Run the World Split Neck Faux Leather Top, with its split neckline and puffed short sleeves.
Tip: Leather on leather works: match the shades, or pair latte with caramel.
3. Add a structured layer
A layer with sharp lines turns joggers from relaxed to polished. A blazer is the classic choice for work. Our Make It Happen Blazer is cream tweed, double-breasted, with a classic lapel collar. Wear it open over a bodysuit and black joggers, so the cream stands out.
Tip: On cold days, the leopard sherpa jacket below adds plush warmth.
4. Pick shoes for where you are going
Shoes set the mood more than anything else. The elastic cuffs on joggers leave the ankle on show, so the shoe gets noticed. Wear clean white sneakers for errands and brunch. Choose pointed-toe ankle boots for the office, since they look neat under a tapered leg. For dinner or drinks, add heeled boots, mules or pumps. A pointed toe makes the leg look longer.
Tip: Cropped pairs like On My Way show off ankle boots best.
Jogger outfits for work, weekends and nights
Use these three formulas as a starting point. Work: pair the black Thinking Out Loud joggers with the navy After Hours Bodysuit, the cream Make It Happen Blazer and pointed ankle boots. Add a gold cuff and a structured bag. Weekend: wear the caramel On My Way joggers with a fitted knit or a white tee, white sneakers and the Going Wild Leopard Faux Sherpa Zip Up Jacket. The print is loud, so keep everything under it simple. Night out: try the On My Way joggers in rose gold with a smooth fitted top, heeled boots and the Wild Night Sequin Bomber Jacket. The sequins catch the light, so skip extra sparkle in your jewelry. Winter: every formula still works. Add a chunky knit or turtleneck under the jacket, swap sneakers for boots, and keep the leg tapered so the outfit never looks bulky.
Care and keeping
Faux leather lasts longer with gentle care. Follow the care label on each piece before you wash it, and keep it away from bleach and high heat.
Frequently asked questions
How do you style joggers for work?
Choose a faux leather or tailored jogger in black or a neutral shade. Tuck in a fitted bodysuit or neat top, then add a blazer for structure. Finish with pointed-toe ankle boots or flats and a structured bag. Skip sneakers and hoodies, which read as weekend wear.
What should women wear with joggers in winter?
Layer warmth on top and keep the leg tapered. Wear a chunky knit or turtleneck, then add a tweed blazer, a sherpa jacket or a long coat. Swap sneakers for ankle boots. Choose deeper shades, like black or caramel, for an easy seasonal look.
What goes with black jogger pants?
Almost everything. Black joggers pair with cream, navy, latte and bold prints alike. For a sleek look, go all black with a fitted top and heeled boots. For contrast, add a cream blazer or a leopard jacket. White sneakers keep it casual; pointed boots or heels dress it up.
