19 Casual Brunch Outfit Ideas That Are Effortlessly Cute
So what actually makes an outfit brunch worthy? If you are wondering what to wear to brunch then you have come to the right place.
Brunch is that magical time of day where breakfast and mimosas come together effortlessly.
Brunch is later than breakfast, but earlier than lunch, and quite frankly, my favorite time to enjoy a meal.
Makeup and clothes are still fresh from the morning and the day is still young.
Going out to brunch for whichever celebration (or lack there of) is a wonderful way to spend the later morning.
Dressing up for brunch is also just as delightful.
Whatever the weather, you can find something inspiring to wear to brunch and delight the day in.
Back to the age old question, of what makes a brunch outfit brunchy? It all comes down to one thing. And that is, effortlessness.
Brunch isn't necessarily a structured meal time, like breakfast, or lunch.
Brunch fits into both, hence the name.
Brunch means both breakfast and lunch combined.
Brunch outfits are both seamlessly and effortless. So therefore, dress the part. But how and wear what?
Pastels, florals and whimsically cheery outfits fall into brunch style.
Also, casual looks like jeans and a pretty blouse can feel brunch worthy. Wear your hair naturally, and let your inner sparkle shine.

What Should You Avoid Wearing to Brunch?
While brunch is all about relaxed vibes, some outfit choices might leave you feeling uncomfortable or out of place. Here are a few things to reconsider:
-
Overly tight or restrictive outfits – you want to enjoy that stack of pancakes, not feel squeezed in your outfit!
-
Super high heels – unless it’s a fancy brunch, like a bridal party for example, go for something more comfortable
-
Too much layering in summer – lightweight outfits are your best friend when it’s warm
-
Pajamas or gym wear – In rare cases, athleisure can work, but make sure it’s intentional and stylish
- Ripped Jeans- Skip the ripped jeans if the restaurant or brunch event you are heading to is formal vibes
The Golden Brunch Rule
Whatever the season or brunch occasion you may be attending, just remember to keep things comfy, chic and effortless.
Don't be afraid to play around with wearing fun colors or adding a playful accessory like a headband or hair ribbon.
After all, brunch is literally the perfect excuse to dress up, just because!
