7 Chic Outfit Ideas You'll Want to Wear This Weekend

Ever find that from Monday to Friday you're a sartorial wizard, planning outfits the night before (hey, even two days before, if you're really organised), but come the weekend, it all goes to pot, especially when you've got a chic Sunday brunch in the works? Funny enough, you're not alone in this. We regularly come to the conclusion that we have nothing to wear on Saturday morning, resorting to rooting through the entirety of our wardrobe before giving up and turning to wine. 

Outfit #1: Checked blazer + jeans + flats

Style Notes: The easiest way to be on trend and look chic during the weekend is to wear a checked blazer. They're everywhere right now but also available all over the high street.

Mango Prince of Wales Wool-Blend Blazer 

This one will last you for autumn and beyond. 

Outfit #2: Vinyl trousers + sneakers + sweatshirt

Pinterest

Style Notes: Another major trend this season is vinyl trousers. Instead of going for the predictable black, opt for a more unusual colour. Pair with sneakers, a box bag, and a sweatshirt.

Acne Studios Tugi Vinyl Slim-Leg Pants 

This Acne pair just shot straight to the top of our shopping list. 

Outfit #3: Cosy cardigan + boyfriend jeans + sandals

Pinterest

Style Notes: Cardigans are back, people. And Emma Thatcher of A Style Album knows this too. On slightly warmer autumnal days, pair your jeans and sandals (hey, if it's sunny outside, why not), with a cosy knit.

Style Notes: The trench coat will always be a staple of an autumn wardrobe. But what about all those pieces you wore throughout the summer? Should you just get rid of them? Take a leaf out of The Frugality's style book, and wear your gingham skirt into the colder months with Vans, a sweater and a trench.

Simone Rocha Asymmetric Gathered Gingham Cotton-Poplin Midi Skirt 

Outfit #5: Shearling coat + frayed jeans + black slingbacks

Style Notes: The easiest way to stay warm this autumn is to invest in the shearling coat. That means when you're still keen to wear your slingbacks, you'll still feel toastie.

Mango Faux Shearling Coat 

This is such a bargain. 

Outfit #6: Polka-dot blouse + vinyl trousers + pink stilettos

Style Notes: We've been following Ada Oguntodu for some time now, and we always go back for style inspo. Her use of colour is always bold, but somehow she dresses in the most accessible ways. This whole look is ideal for a night out or a fancy brunch on a Sunday.

Dodo Bar Or Lace-Up Metallic Fil Coupé Georgette Blouse 

Everyone needs a polka-dot blouse in their wardrobe. 

Outfit #7: Biker jacket + skirt + socks + platform shoes

Style Notes: Platform shoes are so fun that it's nice to bring them out at the weekend. But if you don't like the idea of cold toes, fear not—just grab a pair of socks, and wear them underneath for maximum fashion points.
