I’m a huge fan of leather jackets—they instantly elevate almost any outfit. But styling them in winter can feel tricky, since leather isn’t usually the first material that comes to mind for cold weather. The key? Layer thoughtfully so you stay warm while keeping your look effortlessly cool.
When putting together a winter leather jacket outfit, the focus should be on the layers and accessories that keep you cozy. For this cold weekend look, I paired my black leather jacket with a soft cashmere scarf, a chic wide-brim hat to protect my head from the chill, and a reliable pair of tan suede booties to keep my feet warm.
Once the cozy elements were in place, adding the leather jacket felt seamless. This outfit is a great example of how to wear a scarf with a leather jacket without feeling restricted—it’s warm, comfortable, and stylish all at once.
