Olive jacket is a closet staple in the fall. In this brand new 4 WAYS TO WEAR IT episode, I’m sharing 4 olive green jacket outfits that will give you some inspiration for your closet!

Olive green jacket outfits are perfect for fall

During the fall, one of my most worn pieces is an olive green jacket. They’re so versatile and can be worn with dresses and jeans. So today for 4 Ways To Wear It, I want to share 4 olive green jacket outfits.

Later this week I’ll be doing a huge roundup of olive green jackets, but in the meantime, here are a few really good ones. The one I’m wearing is from Old Navy three years ago (but THIS ONE is super similar)

Here are a few other olive green jacket outfits on other body types

Every week in my 4 WAYS TO WEAR IT series, I want to show you the item on other body types and ages, so you can see it on more than just me. Check out all these gorgeous women wearing olive green jacket outfits.

Check out these four outfit ideas with olive green jackets

#1. Wear your olive green jacket with stripes

This is a really classic and easy way to wear an olive jacket. It looks amazing with a striped dress or a striped top! The stripe and olive green jacket pair perfectly with white pants, black pants or leggings, and or blue jeans.

I tossed on a felt fedora hat just for a fun accessory, but you could also do a baseball cap or no hat at all.

#2. Wear your olive green jackets with some sophisticated layers

This look would be great for a casual friday at work, or for a slightly more mature woman who wants to add some sophistication to her olive green jacket outfit.

I wore a white button down shirt with a layered cashmere sweater and the olive green jacket over the top. With some classic dark wash jeans and a pair of leopard loafers, you have a really chic and classic, casual look.

#3. Wear your olive green jacket over a dress

Olive green jackets are often a military or utility style, which feels a bit masculine. I love pairing it with a dress to add a bit of femininity to the look.

I chose a spotted animal print-esque dress, but you could do this with a black dress, a floral dress, a striped dress, or really any other dress!

This dress is a swing shape, so I added a belt underneath to define my waist, and then paired it with slim black ankle boots.

#4. Try your olive green jacket with faux leather leggings

Olive green jackets are a fun addition to a monochromatic outfit. I actually did a similar outfit last week HERE!

You could do monochromatic white, or monochromatic tan, or blue, but I chose an all black look that was a bit more casual-edgy. The faux leather leggings are a fun addition for fall, and I love them paired with classic white sneakers and a graphic tee.

  2. […] everywhere agree that the olive “utility” jacket is a wardrobe must for any […]

      Working in a small room can be a real challenge, especially when the temperature starts to rise. Without proper ventilation, the air can become stagnant and uncomfortable, making it difficult to concentrate and stay productive. Unlike portable AC units that take up valuable floor space, a WALL AIR CONDITIONER can be wall-mounted to provide efficient cooling without taking up valuable floor space. With it, you can create a comfortable and productive workspace, no matter how small the room. So if you’re struggling to stay cool and focus on a cramped workspace, consider installing one and taking your productivity to the next level.

    This is a fantastic post! I love how you break down the olive green jacket into different outfit ideas. It’s a great reminder that a staple piece like this jacket can be so versatile.

    Look #3 with the dress is a great way to add some femininity to the olive green jacket. The animal print dress you chose is adorable, but like you said, this would work with so many different dress styles.

    Thanks for the inspiration! This post makes me want to go pull out my olive green jacket. One question though – do you think a bomber style olive green jacket would work with all these outfit ideas, or would a different style be better for some of them?

    I am impressed with the high quality and fit of the suit I ordered from America Jackets. Highly recommended! Next, I’ll be ordering Marty McFly jacket from them.
