The Persistent Fashion Trend Ainsley Earhardt of Fox News Continues to Embrace

Ainsley Earhardt loves boxy boucle jackets

The boxy boucle jacket seems to be a staple of Ainsley Earhardt’s work wardrobe. She wore a black version of the cropped jacket on April 3, 2024 when speaking with fashion designer Leah McSweeney on Fox & Friends. The jacket featured bright threading throughout and silver buttons, with the traditional scooped neckline that’s signature to the garment. Earhardt frequently opts for this style. On Instagram on January 10, 2025, Earhardt wore the same shapeless, tweed jacket but this time in a dusty pink while speaking with Melania Trump. The unflattering jacket aged the TV host, and the pale pastel pink washed her out.

Earhardt wore a similar style only a few weeks later. On January 23, 2025, Earhardt shared another photo to her social media, where she wore a hot pink version of the boucle jacket, choosing to keep it open over a white top and white slacks. The neon pink tone made the jacket stand out even more. Boucle jackets do have their charm, and we can understand why the Fox & Friends co-host continually reaches for them. However, these jackets, at least the versions she chooses, are often in sombre tones that look drab on Earhardt. On top of that, the cropped, wide cut of the jacket makes her look shapeless. It’s an unflattering choice for the otherwise stylish TV personality.
