Last weekend, I went to brunch with one of my friends for the first time in almost a year. Finally having someplace to go other than to the grocery store and back was a weird sensation, but it was a welcome change nonetheless. Since there's hope that weekends will be popping again, might we suggest a few stylish outfits to celebrate? Getting dressed up for something formal, although not practical, is honestly kind of easy—you put on a nice dress, some fancy heels, and maybe a bag, and you're out the door—but attempting to toe the line between cool yet effortlessly laid-back (aka the perfect weekend outfit) is annoyingly tricky. The goal is to be comfy, cute, and, most of all, hassle-free.
The women ahead seem to somehow have it all figured out: Their top-notch weekend outfit choices always leave me rushing to click save in my bookmarks folder. Whether you're looking for an interesting way to style your favorite jeans, the perfect inspo for how to wear sneakers, or classic outfit combos you can always rely on, the looks ahead have you covered.
