Dianne 5 Elegant Black Turtleneck Outfits to Look Expensive
When asked to choose one piece of clothing that is essential to creating a lux, classic, elegant look for the fall and winter months, hands down it is the black turtleneck. Inspired by this question, I decided to create this post about how to look lux in a black turtleneck sweater.
I love everything about the look, comfort, style, and versatility of this sweater. I own several, and I find myself reaching for them all fall and winter long.
Buying a high-quality black turtleneck sweater will serve you well. I recommend always purchasing clothing made of natural materials. Although they may cost a bit more, they are worth the additional spend. They tend to be more comfortable, keep their shape and wear beautifully. I would recommend a cashmere or merino wool sweater. Both are fabulous natural materials that drape beautifully and look stylish and elegant for many years. However, a cotton blend is a good choice also. While a quality black turtleneck sweater exudes elegance all by itself, to really dial in the lux-factor, consider adding a signature accessory to your look.

1. Monochrome Magic
Wearing a black-on-black monochrome outfit always looks elegant. However, when adding the texture of a black leather biker jacket and the shine of a beautiful silver mesh bracelet, with this simple black turtleneck the look goes from good to amazing.
2. Edgy & Fun
Another elegant black turtleneck outfit, this time with a camel moto jacket. Pair with some medium wash skinny jeans and black leather ankle boots, and complete the look with a gold pendant necklace and you are ready to go. This is a youthful look for that hot date or concert or other upcoming casual event.
3. Smart & Sassy
A leopard skirt is another fabulous piece to wear with a black turtleneck sweater. It’s a perfect complementary capsule wardrobe piece to ground the busyness of an animal print. Styled with nude pumps, and a gold pendant necklace, the finished outfit is polished, and chic.
4. Effortlessly Chic
Add a stylish brooch for a fabulous casual outfit with a black turtleneck sweater – timeless and a lux look, indeed. Elevate it another notch with a pair of knee high black leather pointed toe boots with a pair of comfortable medium wash skinny jeans. Again, effortlessly chic.
5. Signature Style
Style your black turtleneck sweater with a couple signature wardrobe pieces, such as a black leather biker jacket, and a black & white skirt and all kinds of personality shines through.
