Who doesn’t love popping out for lunch with friends or family. I know it’s one of my fave things to do! Lunch outings are the perfect opportunity to showcase your personal style while enjoying good food and company.
Whether you’re meeting fellow mum friends for a casual catch-up or attending a bottomless brunch that you and the girls have had in the diary for months and you have so far spent hours doom scrolling trying to find the perfect lunch outfit, then I feel this post is for you…
By choosing outfits for lunch that reflect your personal style and the occasion’s vibe, you will feel confident and comfortable while making a stylish statement. So next time you’re planning a luncheon, use these lunch outfit ideas as inspiration to create a look that’s effortless and perfect for the occasion.
What To Wear To Lunch With Friends
For a casual lunch with friends (maybe fellow first time mums- sleep deprived in need of an easy comfortable outfit that says I have rolled out of bed thrown this on and have my life together)
Comfort is key without sacrificing style. I’d go for a trendy yet laid-back look with a pair of black jeans paired with a cosy knit jumper or a graphic tee. Complete the outfit with comfy trainers or ankle boots for a casual-chic vibe. Accessorise with adding maybe a belt or a necklace and some sunnies to add personality to your look and you are good to go!
What To Wear To Sunday Lunch
A Sunday pub lunch with the family (my favourite kind of Sunday) calls for a balance of comfort and casual elegance. Choose a versatile outfit like dark-wash jeans paired with a classic shirt or a cosy chunky knit. Layering is essential for adjusting to indoor and outdoor temperatures, so consider adding a stylish jacket or cardi. Complete the look with comfortable shoes like loafers or ankle boots. I always love to wear a longer top to hide the top of my jeans so post roast for ultimate bloat comfort I can pop open a button of my jeans and no one will know! Life hack!
What To Wear To Bottomless Brunch
Bottomless brunch with the girls is always a big one- it’s all style dependant and really is that day of the month you have been waiting for to let your hair down, so the perfect outfit is essential in making you feel your best- let’s be honest there is always that dreaded question that’s pops up in the group chat “what’s everyone wearing this weekend?” and what an amazing feeling to text back instantly knowing you have a killer outfit and not thinking “crap!” 30 minutes before you are due to leave. Literally throwing everything out of your wardrobe and yet again finding you have NOTHING to wear! Whether you’re a jeans and a nice top kind of girl or a full glitz and glam kind – I’ve got you covered, keep reading…
Option 1- You’re a casual kind of gal
For a laid-back yet stylish vibe, rock casual jeans and a nice top look that exudes effortless cool. Pair high-waisted denim jeans with a breezy blouse or off-the-shoulder top for a flirty touch. Complete your look with comfy trainers or embellished sandals for a relaxed yet chic feel. Accessorise with a crossbody bag and oversized sunglasses or a statement necklace for that added bit of glam.
Option 2- The sun’s out and you want to enjoy every 5 seconds of it
Channel your inner brunch goddess with a flirty sundress that screams summer vibes. Choose a flowy midi or maxi dress in a vibrant print or bold colour to stand out from the crowd. Complete your look with espadrille wedges or block heels for a touch of sophistication. Add a denim jacket or lightweight cardigan for when the sun goes down.
Option 3- Going all out glam
Make a statement at bottomless brunch with a beautiful bodycon midi dress that effortlessly transitions from day to night. Begin the night with comfort in mind and style your dress with embellished sandals then pop some heels in your bag to sling out later. Pair it with some statement earrings and strappy heels to elevate your look from day to night. Layer on a denim or leather jacket for a trendy twist that keeps you warm during those chilly brunch hours.
Cheers to brunching in style!
