How To Style A Black Turtleneck This Fall

Fall, the season of orange-toned leaves and cool breezes, is almost here! As another season approaches, we begin to think about our wardrobe and outfits for this new period of the year. If you’re a lover of boots, long coats, and scarves like me, fall fashion will have you feeling your best self — I guarantee it.

When I think of fall style, one specific piece immediately comes to mind: the black turtleneck. An atemporal icon that is always classy and elegant; just as Emma Chamberlain puts it, “A closet staple”. This versatile piece frequently remind us of coffee shops and rainy days, while holding the power to make anyone look chic, intelligent, and sophisticated.

This piece is definitely a must for your fall wardrobe. Not only it is incredibly chic, elegant, and everything else I’ve said, but there are also infinite ways in which you can style it.

So, as I can’t write and infinite blog post (though wouldn’t that be something?), I brought a few ways, some the best I could think of, in which you can style a black turtleneck this fall. Enough talk now, grab your cup of coffee and let’s dive deep into the post!

1. With Dark Jeans

The first outfit combines the black turtleneck with one of the biggest trends for this fall: dark denim. It also makes very good use of black boots, a fall essential, and a long burgundy coat, a standout piece for the composition. The black tote bag and black belt serve as accessories that firmly enhance the full look.

2. With An All-Black Outfit

All-black outfits have always been a favorite of mine. I just love how this color has the power to express both mystery and sophistication at the same time. This outfit combines the black turtleneck with wide-leg black trousers and a black long trench coat, resulting in a great option for when you want to go business casual this fall. Plus, the black riding boots, bag, and sunglasses complete the outfit in a special way.

3. With The Adidas Samba

Undoubtedly one of the shoes of the year, the Adidas Samba couldn’t stay away from this list. Combining it with the black turtleneck, grey jeans, and a black asymmetric coat results in a very stylish and modern outfit. Plus, the plaid black and white bag and the sunglasses have the power to make it even cooler and more authentic.

4. With a Long Satin Skirt

This outfit is absolutely one of my favorites for this fall. Super chic and sophisticated, it looks to me like something Carrie Bradshaw would wear on an autumn day in New York. The black turtleneck sweater combines flawlessly with a black satin long skirt and a black scarf. You can wear a brown hair clip and boots and carry a black bag to make this outfit even more stylish.

My special tip: since satin is a very thin and delicate fabric, wear thermal tights beneath it if the day is too cold.

5. With Green Pieces

This one is for my Matcha girls. If you want to run away from the warm tones that dominate this season, wearing green can be a very good option. Besides being a cool color, green is also a part of the earth tones, which makes it a fit for fall. For this outfit, alongside the black turtleneck, I selected a matcha-green bag and trousers, a long black trench coat, and a pair of short black boots.

6. In The Preppy Style

This outfit is the cutest one on this list. Combine a black turtleneck with a short black skirt, black detailed pantyhose, and black loafers, and you’ll have the perfect preppy outfit. Plus, you can put on a black leather coat with a white fluffy interior (which looks very warm, indeed) and use a white bag and black ribbon as accessories.

7. With a Blazer and Cherry Red Accessories

Composed of a black turtleneck, black blazer, and dark jeans, this business casual outfit is perfect for the fall. Plus, the cherry red short boots and bag add a touch of sophistication to it, while the gold and silver watch makes the outfit even more chic.


The black turtleneck is an incredibly versatile piece that can adapt to any fall style. Whether you’re going for a chic, preppy, or modern look, this wardrobe staple has you covered. So, get creative, and let your black turtleneck elevate your fall fashion game!
