25 Best Sweatpant Outfits for Women for Total Comfort

Look, sweatpants used to mean you basically gave up trying to look good. But thats not the case anymore. Now you can actually wear them and still look damn good, which is awesome.

You can wear sweatpants just about anywhere now. Running to the store? Sweatpants. Running errands? Sweatpants. Having brunch with your girlfriends at Starbucks? Sweatpants. 

And you know what’s the best part? You can still stay comfy as hell. You can feel like you’re lounging around in pajamas all day, but still throw an outfit together that doesn’t scream “I quit.” It’s honestly the best of both worlds. So we’re going to show you how to wear sweatpants and look like you actually tried.

Grey Sweatshirt with Matching Sweatpants

Nothing says, “I woke up like this” better than rocking a matching grey sweatsuit. Monochromatic outfits are perfect for when you want to go that extra mile to look athletic but still keep it minimal and let your accessories pop.

Grey sweatshirt and grey joggers pair together so well and create such a clean silhouette on your body. Everything being the same color allows your eye to glide up and down your body seamlessly which creates a taller look. What we love about this look is how the outfit is styled. The white sneakers really bring out the athleticism and keep it casual. But that pop of red on the purse breaks up the outfit enough that you don’t look like you just got out of bed.

Pro tip: Try to find sweatshirt sets that have some sort of detailing like ribbed cuffs, tapered legs, or even having a more fitted cut. Little details like that take your sweat set from gym wear to streetwear.

Oversized Denim Jacket with Turtleneck and Navy Sweatpants

Wide-leg sweatpants are great because they look a little more chic than your typical sweatpants. They almost give off the illusion that they’re actual pants. But they’re still as comfy as ever! The shape flows so well with the oversized hoodie and jacket and is super flattering on all body types.

Whether you’re going out to brunch with your girlfriends, wearing it as your casual Friday work outfit if you work a super casual workplace, or even wearing it for a coffee date. This outfit works because the denim jacket takes it from lazy-day outfit to somewhere you don’t mind being seen. It’s basically telling everyone you didn’t just sleepwalk into your day.

Another pro tip when wearing wide-leg sweatpants is making sure they’re the correct length. They should graze the top of your sneakers. If they’re too long, you’ll look sloppy. And if they’re too short you’ll ruin the flowy chic look we’re going for. If you’re petite like us, wearing an undercrop white hoodie will help ALOT. It shows more of your waist and creates the illusion of length.

Oversized Chocolate Hoodie with Matching Sweatpants

You can wear this entire outfit to literally any situation. Running to Target on a Saturday? You got it. Meeting up with friends for coffee? Sure. Wearing this to school on a casual dress day? Absolutely. Having all your clothes be one color really elevates your sweatpants game and makes it look more put together. And pairing the all black sneakers really finishes the outfit.

Styling Tip: When wearing an oversized hoodie, keep your accessories minimal. You can still add some flair with a small gold necklace or hoop earrings.

Pro styling move: While you want to go up a hoodie or two with your hoodie for that oversized look, wear your sweatpants true to your size. If your oversized on top and bottom, it will look shapeless and like you didn’t try at all. By keeping your sweatpants your true size, it will give the illusion that you’re being effortlessly lazy.

Striped Sweater with Burgundy Sweatpants

This look is seriously right on that fine line between lazy and put together. Burgundy sweatpants are such a nice change up from typical black sweatpants and just make the whole outfit feel so luxe. And I love how casual this outfit feels. The low-key sneakers and baseball cap really grounds this outfit and keeps it in the “streetwear” vibe.

Quick styling tip that will actually make a difference: When wearing loose-fitting pants, pair with a fitted top or tuck it in. You don’t want to look like a potato. The nice thing about this striped sweater is it has some sort of structure, that’s why this whole outfit doesn’t look sloppy.

Oversized Cargo Jacket with Graphic Tee and Black Sweatpants

Black sweatpants don’t always have to mean you’re going to spend the day binge-watching Netflix. You can actually dress them up quite a bit by adding layers and investing in sweatpants that have more structure to them.

Adding that tan overshirt- whether it be a chore jacket or those utility button-ups- is enough to elevate the whole outfit and take it up a few notches past your typical athleisure. It’s perfect for running errands, grabbing coffee with your friends, or even shopping at the farmer’s market on Saturday when you want to look good but not try too hard.

Throwing a graphic tee underneath keeps the whole look relaxed and allows you to show off your personal style (band shirts, vintage shirts, or plain logo tees would look great). And finishing off the look with some black boots really elevates the whole outfit than if you opted for sneakers. They also come in handy when the weather is crazy and you don’t want to wear closed-toes but don’t want something too heavy either.

Faux Fur Cropped Jacket with White Crop Top and Ripped Sweatpants

Love how this ripped detail on these black sweatpants gives the outfit some edge but isn’t overpowering. It also creates a nice focal point and breaks up the whole look.

Throwing a fuzzy faux fur jacket on top of a basic white crop top is honestly that perfect balance of being able to feel like you’re lounging around but also look like you put some effort into what you’re wearing. It’s those kinds of outfits we love for weekend brunch or running errands when you don’t feel like wearing real pants.

Also, because these sweatpants are wide-leg, you can get away with wearing chunkier sneakers!

Pink Long-Sleeve Tee with Hijab and Grey Sweatpants

Grey sweatpants are seriously the best base for this whole look. A lot of people tend to think modest athletic wear is boring and basic but look at this outfit. Prove them wrong. Keeping your pants grey really helps tone down the outfit so your pretty pink hijab and blouse can shine.

Perfect for running to the gym in the morning, meeting up for coffee, or even running errands when you don’t want to feel like you crawled out of bed. Comfortable and STILL looks like you put some thought into your outfit.

Mocha Zip-Up Hoodie with Hijab and Black Sweatpants

Who knew embracing basics could be so stylish. This look proves athleisure doesn’t have to be logo-filled or neon colored to be chic—silhouettes have all the power! These neutral colored zip-up hoodie and sweatpants combo keep things effortless (but not too much) and those wider-leg sweatpants really elevate your lazy-day joggers.

I love how many different occasions you could wear this too. Run to grab coffee in the morning? Sure. Lazy work-from-home day? Double sure. Meet up with friends and not want to compromise comfort? Absolutely. Those wide-leg sweatpants have more structure than your average joggers which I think gives this whole look more intention rather than lazy-day loungewear. Slip on a pair of white sneakers to keep that sporty look going.

Sweatshirt with Hijab and Burgundy Sweatpants

These burgundy sweatpants are far more chic than your average gray joggers. Throw on an oversized graphic tee and you’re gracing that I-made-effort-but-not-too-much mood.

Speaking of making effort, I love how the pieces play off each other. That oversized sweatshirt looks so chic paired with those form-fitting sweatpants, you’re not looking like a walking blob. And that structured bag? Girl knows how to tell everyone that this is an outfit, she didn’t just sleep in these jeans.

Creamy Knit Cardigan with Crop Top and Grey Sweatpants

Break out of the “stay at home mom” sweatpants and take your comfy clothes game to hang out-friendly attire with this look. Whether you’re going to brunch with girlfriends, grabbing coffee or running errands when you don’t feel like dressing up but need to look somewhat cute, this getup has got you.

I love how monochromatic everything is. Pairing those sweatpants with that cropped tank top in grey helps everything look so intentional rather than just throwing on whatever. That cream colored cardigan not only adds some texture (and warmth if it’s one of those in-between weather days) but it also breaks up the solid colors.

Pro tip: crop that tank top so you show off some waist. You don’t want to look too heavy on the bottom or like you have no shape at all.

Those creamy colors also help your skin look glowing so it’s a win-win. Another fun styling tip? Roll up that sleeve a little. Nobody likes someone who matches too much, it also lets you show off any watches or bracelets you decide to wear.

New York Team Polo Sweatshirt with Matching White Sweatpants

When in doubt, match your top and bottom. Not only does this ivory and ivory combo make you look like you put in some effort, but those wide-leg sweatpants are far more flattering than your typical gray sweatpants. Passing up on sweatpants with those teeny tiny ankles that roll down says you put in effort. The half-zip aspect of this sweatshirt is also great because it breaks up that white, so you’re not just a giant beige rectangle walking down the street.

Honestly, this whole athleisure look can be worn anywhere that isn’t an office. Need to run to Starbucks? You got it. Lunch date with friends? Work. Going to the store? Yup still you. Those ivory colored sweatpants are so much better than your usual gray because white/grey sweatpants just scream “I gave up today.” Throw on that pink bucket hat for a pop of color so you don’t look like a ghost.

Pro tip: when buying a sweatshirt like this, make sure it’s mid weight fleece. You don’t want anything too thin because that looks cheap when it’s all one color. And you don’t want anything too thick because then you’ll look bulky. The half-zip is also way more versatile than a traditional sweatshirt because you can zip it up different ways to change how the neckline looks or to show off a necklace.

Navy New York Hoodie with Grey Sweatpants

Speaking of grey sweatpants, go ahead and step up your loungewear game with heather gray sweatpants. They’re not as boring as your typical sweatpants. When they’re slightly oversized and hang rather than being skin tight, it looks more intentional.

Pair it with a New York hoodie to step into your inner streetwear style. This fits into that “I’m cool, I’m comfy” vibe rather than “yah, I just quit today.”

This entire outfit could really be worn for anything. Need to run to get coffee? Do it. Errands? Yup coffee. Traveling? Sure. Working from home but have to look somewhat decent for Zoom meetings (you know you’ve been there)? Yes please and thank you. The outfit as a whole is very chic and put together so you won’t look sloppy running to the store.

Navy Track Jacket with Matching Sweatpants

I love how those white side stripes give it an athletic edge, but it’s still cute enough to wear running errands or even grabbing coffee with friends. Also, going with a darker wash denim rather than something really light helps you avoid stains and helps you look skinny as heck.

Those white sneakers are what really takes this outfit from waking up like this to actually waking up and putting this on. Pairing a structured tote with your casual track jacket and sweatpants really helps you look more put together rather than just slobbing around.

Places I’d recommend wearing this to: Since this whole look is great for active situations I’d say any busy weekends where you might go to the gym and then want to meet up with friends for lunch without changing. It’s also great for traveling or really long car rides when you want to be comfortable but not look like a dumpster.

Oversized Grey Sweatshirt with Matching Sweatpants 

Take your gym clothes to the next level by grabbing some oversized grey sweatpants that slightly poof at your ankles and pairing it with an equally oversized grey cropped sweatshirt.

I love how intentional this look looks. It doesn’t give off any “boy I just got off of the gym” vibes at all. Pro tip: crop that sweatshirt to show off your waist. It helps define where your waist is instead of you looking like you lost all your shape or like you have 2 big blobs on top and bottom.

Black Logo Sweatpants with Crop Top

Whether it’s a Saturday morning farmers market, run to Starbucks when it’s finally warm outside or even grabbing brunch with friends when you want to look cute but not like you tried too hard, this look has got you covered. That crop top is perfect when you’re feeling good about yourself and it’s actually warm out. But maybe throw on a cropped hoodie or denim jacket in your bag if you get chilly later.

Pro tip: when picking out your sports bra you don’t have to go with plain jane white. Try something fun! A cool print or bright color will look amazing when you layer a jacket on top later.

Nike Beige Matching Sweatshirt and Sweatpants

Plain ol’ sweatpants are so boring and give off such a I-rolled-out-of-bed kind of vibe, but not these babies. Those wide-leg sweatpants make you look so much taller and put together than your average joggers. Pair with an oversized sweatshirt and you’ve got yourself that effortless look everyone is going for.

The best part about this whole outfit? You can literally wear this wherever. Brunch with the girls? Yes. Running to Starbucks to grab coffee? You bet. Working from home but have a zoom meeting? Don’t worry about it because you’ll still look like you made an effort without actually having to wear anything restrictive.

Black Puffer Jacket with Crop Top and White Sweatpants

White sweatpants don’t always have to give you that I-quit-Today vibe. Style them right and they can look incredibly chic. Pair your white sweatpants that are high waisted and fit loosely through your legs with a cropped black hoodie so you don’t look like you’re just lounging around your house.

Throw on that glossy black puffer jacket and you have yourself a look for getting coffee, running errands or even meeting up with friends on the weekend.

Places to wear: anywhere really that’s city-like or trendy. Sunday Funday at the farmers market? Perfect. That brunch spot in that hip area of town. Casual art gallery opening. The puffer jacket also helps you wear in multiple seasons.

Styling tip: I wish someone told me this earlier but light colored sweatpants are ten times better than dark when you’re first starting to build your wardrobe. They look better in pictures and don’t show wrinkles as badly. When looking for white sweatpants, opt for a pair that have more structure rather than those that are super cheap and just stick to your hips.

Beige Zip-Up Hoodie Jacket with Matching Sweatpants

Say goodbye to your rugged looking sweats and hello to these chic, matching sets. High waisted sweatpants open up your legs making them appear longer than they are. Pair that with a cropped hoodie so you don’t look boxy or awkward. Pro tip: The color beige is literally the best because it flatters every skin tone and can really be dressed up (think brunch or casual workplace) or down.

Style tip: keep your hair pulled back and looking neat with this outfit. It’ll make your whole outfit look more put together.

Black and White Colorblock Hoodie with Black Sweatpants

Who says sweatpants are just for lounging around? Sweatpants are technically streetwear now. Pair those wide-leg pants with a cropped hoodie, and you’ve got yourself some major high-low action goin on. Throw some color-blocking into the mi,x and you’ve got yourself a modern, fresh look. Try pairing navy and cream or gray and burgundy. But my favorite? Black sweatpants. They look 10x more chic than those sweatpants with tight ankles.

And that turquoise bag? Brilliant. That, my friends, is what took this whole outfit from basic to FUCK I WANT THAT.

Graphic Printed White Sweatpants with Crop Top

These aren’t your typical sweatpants. Sure, they’re comfy, but those big graphic designs on the side make them a statement piece. I love those abstract lines running down the sides of the pants; it makes the whole outfit look so much more interesting than plain Jane gym clothes. Pair that bottom statement maker with a simple nude colored bandeau, and you’re letting those pants do all the talking but keeping your outfit balanced.

The great thing about this combo is that you can wear it to so many different occasions. Weekend brunch with your girlfriends? Got it. Casual art gallery? Yes. Those days when you have to run errands but still want to look like you made an effort. White sneakers are great because they keep your whole outfit sporting and casual but also look crisp and clean.

Styling tip: if you’re not feeling too sexy showing that much skin with a bandeau, then throw on an oversized denim jacket or bomber on top. Keep your top simple, so all the attention is on those crazy sweatpants.

Purple Embroidered Matching Sweatshirt and Sweatpants

Say goodbye to boring old sweatpants and hello to this mauve set. Not only will you look stylish, but you’ll also remain super comfy. Match that purple hoodie with those embroidered joggers, and you have yourself a coffee run, lunch with friends, or errand-running kind of day.

Teal Tie-Dye Matching Hoodie and Sweatpants

My favorite thing about this tie-dy? Set is that it actually looks like you made an effort this morning instead of just waking up and throwing this on. I love when your top and bottom match, it makes you feel like you’re wearing an actual outfit instead of just sweatpants.

Another reason I love this combo? Aqua tie-dye is just different than other colors. It’s not overdone but it gives off so much of a put together vibe without trying too hard. Tie-dye always keeps an outfit interesting but not like “I’m a walking rainbow” interested. And matching outfits are also so oddly flattering because everything flows.

Houndstooth Cropped Sweater with Emerald Sweatpants

The edgy combination of emerald sweatpants and a basic black and white houndstooth pattern is so fabulous. They say opposites attract and these two are proof! I love how chic sweatpants can look when you’re willing to step out of your comfort zone. Those wide-leg pants give off so many vintage vibes and are way more dressier than your typical sweatpants.

What’s really making this outfit is that cropped sweater. It shows you have a waist and balances out those flared pants. Love how the black and white checks make this whole outfit look so put together, but that emerald really pops without being overbearing.

Baby Blue Sweatpants with Graphic Fashion Tee

Pastel blue sweatpants take this lazy-day chic mood to the next level. Throw on a graphic white tee and you’ve got yourself that chic off-duty model look. And by that I mean EXTRA casual but not sloppy.

White sneakers finish this whole look off. It flows so nicely from top to bottom and just looks dang good together. I can see my self wearing this for weekend mornings running to Starbucks, lunch dates with friends or even when I just have to run to the store but still wanna look somewhat decent.

Quick style tip: Try tucking your graphic tee in only at the front. It creates some shape for you and shows off that waist band of your sweatpants which for some reason makes it look more dressy. If your sweatpants have a draw string, leave it loose as oppossed to tying it in a knot. It looks way more stylish that way. 

Pink Hoodie Jacket with White Tank and Matching Sweatpants

Yep you guessed it, matching sweatsuits are in and this pink numero is why. When you wear that pink hoodie with those matching joggers, you look like you made an effort this morning rather than just jumping out of bed (we both know you stayed in your pants).

Seeing that white tank top peeking out under that hoodie is such a cute and smart move. It breaks up the solid pink you’d be wearing if you didn’t have a tank on.

Another reason I love this soft pink color? It honestly looks athletic but also very chic. Grab coffee? Yup you can. Lunch with friends? Double yup. Run to Target? Yep you still look cute. Those white ankle boots are also what really took this look from I’m just comfy to I’m comfy and a freaking fashionable queen.

Hot Pink Cropped Sweatshirt with Matching Sweatpants

Because your bottom half is doing all the heavy lifting with brightness you dont have to fret too much about your accessories. A gold chain necklace or hoop earrings are great when you’re feeling chic, but honestly your outfit is cool as is.

If you’re shopping for an ensemble similar to Kens keep an eye out for cotton-poly blends. The material will hold it’s shape without losing softness.

Pro tip: Pairing your cropped top with a white or black fitted tank top that peaks out about an inch below the crop top. This way you have more coverage but still maintain that effortless cute vibe. As for your shoes keep them white and simple. Either go for chunkier shoes like slides for an athleisure look or low-cut sneakers for a streetwear-inspired outfit.
