Sweater, jeans, boots, repeat. Come Fall, this outfit formula is as simple as it is reliable, but after a while, it can start to feel a little stale. Turtlenecks, blanket scarves, and fun textures like corduroy and velvet are always great ways to switch things up, but this year, we found the perfect versatile piece to make your cold-weather wardrobe feel brand new — and extremely cool. Enter an oversize, sherpa-lined denim jacket.

Casual, timeless, and easy to layer, it's no surprise denim jackets have been a staple in outerwear for years. This one's oversize fit serves a dual purpose: it gives the jacket that slouchy, relaxed, and slightly vintage feel, while also making it roomy enough to wear over sweaters and the like. For an added extratrendy bonus, the sherpa lining provides warmth and style, making it stand out from its more plain counterparts.

Best of all, there are endless ways to style a jacket like this. Whether you want to experiment with the "Canadian tuxedo" — aka denim-on-denim — or throw it on over your favorite dresses, jumpsuits, and sweaters, we've rounded up a handful of pieces your new favorite jacket will pair with perfectly.

What to Pair It With

Dresses are year-round wardrobes staples. Layer the Cami Floral Print Handkerchief Midi Dress ($70) over a turtleneck and under your jacket for a Winter outfit that feels feminine and casual-cool.

Layer this Puff Sleeve Sweater ($70) underneath the jacket for ultimate warmth. The neutral color palette gives you the freedom to accessorize till your heart's content.

That Print Midi Skirt ($60) you bought earlier this year? It can fit seamlessly into your cold-weather wardrobe when paired with sherpa and denim.

We don't know about you, but denim paired with a Utility Jumpsuit ($90) feels like a total match made in heaven. If you're going casual, complete the look with sneakers, or try heeled boots for an ensemble that's elevated, but still low-key.

Feeling adventurous enough to give head-to-toe denim a try? These High Rise Rip & Repair Cheeky Straight Jeans ($90) are the missing piece in your outfit.

For major French cool-girl vibes, slip into a Striped Ribbed Turtleneck Top ($40) and wear the jacket draped over your shoulders. You'll have that effortless-chic look mastered in no time.

If you're looking for a more obvious way to channel Parisian style, pair your jacket with a Wool-Blend Beret ($25). Not only will it totally complete your outfit, but it'll keep your head warm in the process.
