Good weekend plans involve brunch. Others might say that the best thing about Saturday and Sunday is being able to sleep in, or making it on time to your workout class. We think that the best part of these two days of rest is having time to do more than grab a pastry and coffee. The best brunch looks don’t need to be a chore.
This weekend, comfort is key. So it’s important to choose wardrobe staples that will transform your basic basics into a style. An oversized blazer can instantly dress up your favorite sports bra with leggings after a workout. Fluid pinstripe trousers can elevate an old hoodie that you’ve been sleeping in. Even the simplest of pieces can add a lot to a lazy outfit.
We’ve collected 20 street-style looks that we love to use for brunch inspiration throughout the year.
