Pink jackets are making a splash in the fashion world. Modern and youthful, they can add a touch of whimsy to any outfit you decide to wear them with. But with so many ways to style them, how can you choose just one? Don’t worry—we’ve got your back. We’ve put together plenty of ideas to help you nail your look for both casual and dressy occasions.
Steps
-
This combo makes for an easy outfit option. Since your pink jacket is already a statement piece, you can easily make outfits by throwing it on with neutral colors. All black, all white, or all tan looks go great with pink jackets, and you can keep your jacket on or take it off throughout the day. [1] X Research source
- This is a more subtle way to style your jacket.
-
It’s the outfit that never fails! Go with dark wash jeans, a plain T-shirt, and some ballet flats for a cute, simple look. Throw on your pink denim jacket or blazer to tie your look together and seem a little more polished. [2] X Research source
- Instead of skinny jeans, you could put on a pair of high waisted mom jeans.
- Or, you could spice up your outfit with a graphic or band T-shirt.
- Try carrying your wallet and keys in a small handbag you can throw over your shoulder to complete this outfit.
-
This is a great way to keep things cool and casual. If you’re heading out to lunch with a friend and you don’t want to look too dressed up, wear a skirt, blouse, and a pink denim jacket on top. Pair it with minimal jewelry and a small backpack to keep your stuff in for the ultimate laid back outfit. [3] X Research source
- Try pairing your outfit with a pair of Doc Martens or lace-up boots.
- You could try wearing a navy blue tennis skirt, a white blouse, and black shoes underneath your denim jacket.
- Or, go for a black denim skirt, a band T-shirt, and black low top sneakers.
-
This is the perfect look for summer. If you’re going out in shorts, grab your pink denim jacket or motorcycle jacket and throw it on whenever you get cold. It will look great with a pair of distressed denim shorts and a loose T-shirt. [4] X Research source
- Dress your outfit up with a thick studded belt, or keep it simple with a thin chain in your belt loops.
- Finish off this outfit with a pair of high top sneakers.
-
This pairing makes for a great streetwear outfit. Pick out a pair of jeans or shorts that are roughly the same color as your jacket (bonus points if you’re wearing a denim jacket). Wear a plain white T-shirt underneath to look cool and casual in a monochromatic look. [5] X Research source
- Finish off your look with a pair of low top sneakers and a fanny pack to hold your wallet in.
- You could even throw on a pink beanie to be pink from head to toe.
- This is a pretty bold look, but in the best way!
-
You wouldn’t take this look to the office, but you could take it to the beach. Throw on a pair of navy blue or tan khaki shorts with a thick belt. Add a plain white T-shirt underneath and finish off your look with low top sneakers in brown or black. [6] X Research source
- Throw on a pair of simple shades, and grab a large handbag or briefcase to finish off this outfit.
-
This outfit will definitely have you turning heads. Grab your pink jacket and try to color match it as you pick out a midi-length skirt, a pair of kitten heels, a soft blouse, and a scarf. Accessorize with matching pink jewelry and a subtle pink handbag to look radiant and glowing. [7] X Research source
- It’s okay if your pinks don’t all match up perfectly. Try to stick to one tone, though: blush pink, hot pink, and light pink are all very different.
- If you have a darker skin tone, neon pink will really pop against your skin. [8]

Black and pink go super well together. Plus, wearing all black underneath your jacket will make it stand out even more. Put on a pair of black jeans, black shoes, and a black T-shirt, then throw your pink jacket on top. Complete your outfit with some silver jewelry and a pair of sunglasses to keep it simple. [10] X Research source
- This outfit is super versatile, so it works well with any kind of pink jacket.
-
There’s no need to dig out your sandals or heels. If you want to keep your jacket more laid back, go for some low-top sneakers or a pair of running shoes instead. Black sneakers always look great with pink, but you could also go for white, silver, or even gold. [11] X Research source
- Nude sneakers always look great with blush pink jackets.
-
You might not want to dress up too much for a simple outing. Grab simple, neutral accessories like a black backpack, some black sunglasses, or a black beanie to throw on with your pink jacket and make your outfit laid back and cool. [12] X Research source
- Black accessories always look good, so you can pair them with almost any outfit you have on underneath your jacket. White or beige look great, too!

This is a great way to turn heads. After all, pink and black look great together! Try going for silver, gold, or copper tones to play up the pink in your look (especially blush pink). [13] X Research source
- You could even incorporate some jewel tones, like teal and ruby.
-
This is an easy way to keep things chic. Instead of going with jeans and sneakers, try wearing a black midi skirt, a black blouse, and black heels. Throw on a long pink jacket (think trench coat style) and pair your outfit with a black handbag to make your jacket pop. [14] X Research source
- In the summer, pair this outfit with sandals instead of heels to wear it to the beach or a backyard BBQ.
- You could also go with a white handbag instead to add a bit of contrast.
-
This is a great option if you’re going out on the town for a night. You can even put on your cutest mini dress and heels! Wear your jacket over your dress and take it off when you get to your destination for the big reveal.
- This outfit works best if your jacket hits at or just above the length of your dress.
- You could go with an all black dress and heels, a floral dress and black heels, or a pastel dress and white heels.
- Match your handbag to your dress to make this outfit cohesive.
-
Wearing lace is an instant way to dress up an outfit. Put on a blush pink lace romper and some cream wedges, wear a pair of lace shorts and some high heeled sandals, or put on a lace blouse and trousers with booties. Then, finish off your outfit with a ruffled pink jacket to tie it all together. [15] X Research source
- Finish off your outfit with a silver clutch and a pair of white sunglasses.
- This is the perfect outfit to take to brunch or a friend’s party.

- To make this outfit a little more modern, put on some capri-length trousers with low top socks or slim heels.
- Pair this outfit with a black briefcase or handbag.
- Bonus points if your suit has a slight bit of plaid in it!
-
If you like simplicity, this one’s for you. Throw on a pair of white trousers, a white dress, or a white skirt and blouse, then tie it all together with a pink jacket. Go with a pink motorcycle jacket for a more masculine look, or keep it feminine with a ruffled jacket. [17] X Research source
- Finish this look off with a pair of beige shoes or heels, and grab a matching handbag, if that’s your thing.
-
You can’t go wrong with neutral tones. Hats, purses, and scarves all complement a pink jacket, and keeping them neutral will make your outfit pop. When you pick out your accessories, keep them in the beige range of the color spectrum so that your pink jacket is the star of the show. [18] X Research source
- Black accessories also go well with pink, but beige ones tend to look a little fancier.
-
Since pink is such an eye-catcher, you don’t need to go all out with your shoe color, too. Pick out black, white, or beige shoes to complete your outfit. You’ll still turn heads, but your jacket will be the real star! [19] X Research source
- If you’re wearing dress shoes, light brown complements pink, too.
