What to Wear for Weekend Brunch

by DRESS FOR THE DAY 

It’s undeniably our favorite meal of the week: brunch!

After a long week at work, there’s nothing like burning off some steam with lots of mimosas, carbs and your best pals. Plans are set but your outfit’s not? No need to fret! We’ve rounded up our favorite key pieces to keep you looking even more delicious than those eggs benedict you’re about to crush. Happy brunch styling!

GUYS:

We know you’ve been dying to get out of those work slacks and into your favorite jeans so start with a classic pair of denim in a slim fit like these.

GALS:

Just like the fellas, we can’t wait to get into our favorite pair of jeans – but to keep things comfy and chic, throw on a pair of distressed boyfriend jeans that we promise you’ll be living in year round. Add a faux-fur vest – the trend we just can’t get enough of, and wear a simple black long-sleeved tee underneath. Keep the accessories on the simple yet edgy side with some triangle stud earrings. Leave the stilettos and flats at home and instead grab some playful ankle booties  to complete the look. Last but not least, a taupe lip color will keep you polished without having to re-apply after each brunch, sip or who knows, even kiss!
