How to Style a Flannel Casually

January 8, 2021

I’m continuing my no buy January (read more here) with probably my all time favorite closet staple – a flannel shirt! I have this shirt in both this white color and the red and literally wear them non-stop in the fall and winter. Today I thought I would share some an idea for how to style a flannel casually. I love wearing it as an outer layer with leggings. The trending “shacket” is really fun, but I haven’t wanted to buy one myself. To me styling a flannel this way looks really similar without spending any money.

Ever wondered how to style a flannel casually? This post is for you with one easy look plus eight more for inspiration.

Flannel Shirt Details

I am actually wearing a small tall here. I have both the regular length and the tall length in this shirt because I wear it that much (last seen here dressed up for family Christmas photos). What can I say…. I love the tall length to wear with leggings like this. I tied my plain white t-shirt underneath and paired it with my all time favorite regular leggings that I gushed about here and Golden Goose sneakers. I reviewed my sneakers here after buying them, and I maintain they are worth it because I literally wear them all the time.

I have styled it previously like this with my red flannel, leather leggings, and boots once here and once here with my leather jacket. I like this version for an even more casual take.

Flannel Styled EIGHT TIMES Previously Here

I could hardly believe it when I was rounding up how many times I have shared this flannel in both the red and white versions that I has made the blog eight times over the years. That means I have truly worn it SOOOOO many times in real life. I’d love to hear in the comments which look is your favorite.

    I love how you’ve styled the flannel as an outer layer here—it’s such a versatile piece! I’ve been eyeing a similar one on ASOS but always get nervous about fabric quality when shopping online. By the way, if you’re ever curious about how reliable are reviews on ASOS for clothing quality?, that consumer site actually helped me figure out which items tend to hold up after washing. It’s been a game-changer for avoiding disappointment with online buys! Thanks for the styling inspiration—definitely trying this look with my favorite leggings this weekend.
