10 Outfit Ideas Ranging From Casual To Fancy To Sort Your Brunch 'Fits

The first pick on the list is my personal favourite way of styling, because it’s the easiest to ace. And with more and more people inclining towards minimal and comfy fits, this is undeniably a great brunch outfit idea, especially for days when you feel brunch has a full-on possibility to turn into a drunch.

Style a white shirt (preferably oversized) with your favourite trousers and accessorise with a shoulder bag or a maxi tote to make it feel more brunch-y. Also, add a pair of tiny gold hoops to make the fit look more polished. You can also switch up with a striped shirt instead of a plain one and wear a pair of denims if that seems more like your vibe

Some trends are just too pretty to let go of, and I feel that's what has happened with cottagecore. Farm-girl-inspired outfits with feminine silhouettes and simplistic prints sounds like something that would stay evergreen. Think puff sleeves, ruffles, milkmaid necklines, and countryside-inspired prints like florals or checks–perfect for a sunny brunch day when you want to look effortless.

The checklist for this look: a simple floral-print midi dress styled with a basket bag, and a pair of tan-coloured flats.

After all, who doesn’t like wearing sweatpants to brunch? Being comfortable while overeating seems like a pre-requisite for those of us with no self control, and chilly days call for being at ease and channeling your inner model off-duty. 

Bring out your comfy loungewear set (don’t colour block, you still want to look put together and not like you just got out of bed) and your emotional support oversized checkered shirt to layer on. For footwear, a pair of classic white sneakers would do the trick here.

If there is one thing to love about summer, it is the well-styled, elegant, tastefully OTT looks that look straight out of a fashion magazine, or New York on a day sun decided to show. For the joy of dressing up and imagining fake scenarios like gorging on a croissant in Cafe De Flore in Paris, soft-feminine is the look to go for. Because life is simply too short to wait for a vacation to bring out your beachy florals.

The key to this look is getting your hands on a dress that fits you like a glove (may or may not have florals) paired with a mini bag and a pair of cute wedges or stilettos if you don’t have to walk much.

The world has become obsessed with co-ords for all the right reasons. They look chic and elevated, and earn you compliments for being an ace and put-together dresser (and someone who plans their outfits). Also, with so many fabrics, prints, patterns, designs and silhouettes available, your wardrobe will be sorted for all occasions from day to night, including impromptu brunch plans.

We love a checkered co-ord which can be worn at brunch meetings for making a statement. Pair it with a handheld bag and comfy mules that won’t get in the way of your important day.

Winters are the best time to step out for brunch, not only because the weather’s perfect for soaking sun while enjoying your meal but also because you get the chance to wear your collection of oversized sweaters and sweatshirts somewhere other than your living room. For picnic brunches with the fam, bring your Pinterest-inspired cosy outfits to life and don't forget your fluffy socks before you step out.

Upgrade your basic knit pullover look with a shacket that will add layers to the overall look and will also protect you from the cold. Leggings are your best friend during winter when you want to be comfy but want to ditch loose-fitted bottoms and complete the look with a sling bag to carry all your essentials.

Black for brunch might sound odd and morbid to everyone except Wednesday Addams, but quite honestly it is the one colour that never disappoints! It requires minimum effort to put together a fail proof all-black outfit. No kidding, you can wear your everyday basics like a black tank top and joggers and still look chic. How to style it for brunch? Just make sure that your accessories are in a different colour to add more depth and contrast to your outfit. 

My picks for an all-black look for brunch would be a black blouse or top that fits well paired with a midi skirt or a pair of chino trousers. To add some oomph, I would style it with an embellished or metallic-coloured bag and a pair of vinyl heels.

Denim is that one fabric that never goes out of fashion! A simple denim-on-denim always gives casual smart and makes your look more elevated. One thing to be kept in mind is to choose similar washes of denim for separates, even though choosing different shades might tempt you, it doesn't look as flattering. Also, wearing the same colour creates an unbroken look, elongating your silhouette. 

Foray into the world of denim co-ords and team it with a white bandeau top to break the monotony. We found you denim this pair of really cute denim platform heels and statement sunglasses to ace the 'casual but no so casual' brunch look.

In my opinion, jumpsuits are the most versatile piece of clothing. Hear us out, they're fuss-free because all you need to sort is just that one piece of clothing, no critical thinking required. They can be styled for all kinds of occasions. Wear them as is for a casual look, and a bit of push in the accessories department can have you ready for a full-on party. And the best part is that the wide-leg pants of the jumpsuits can be styled with heels to make you appear taller.

I would suggest going for a neutral colour like white that looks chic and evergreen from day to night and go for the clean-girl aesthetic with matching sandals and chunky gold earrings for a laidback brunch look.

Corsets aren't leaving our Instagram feeds anytime soon. Fashion enthusiasts around the world can't seem to get over the form-fitting silhouette that cinches your torso and is always a safe choice when you want to look fab. For a brunch party where you want to make heads turn, a corset is a safe choice. Choose your bottoms depending on the occasion and keep the accessories simple to keep the focus on the outfit.

In case you haven't given in to the corset frenzy yet, get your hands on a strapless corset and pair it with straight-fit trousers if the occasion's formal or parachute pants if the brunch memo is flirty casual. For accessories, any simple earrings that aren't too jazzy would work, or get your hands on a pair of ear cuffs for an edgy look.
