Brunch is the defining moment of the weekend – and if cocktails are involved, it is the best way to start or finish off a weekend.

Living in the New York City area, brunch is an institution. Bottomless mimosas are synonymous with weekend goers in New York City.

It is a social movement. It the perfect excuse to catch up with people- making it the perfect opportunity to catch up with friends after summer vacations. 

Fall Brunch Outfits

A fall brunch outing should be as weather-accommodating as it is stylish, consisting of an oversized blazer, straight leg jeans, and knee-high boots.

The combination doesn’t need to be bulky, it can be streamlined and chic for fall brunches. Whether you’re going to a casual Sunday brunch or hanging with the fashionable crowd, there are plenty of options for a weekend meal.

Scroll below for fall brunch outfits to wear for the fall season. 

Blazer + Skirt + Loafers

In early autumn, when the weather forecast calls for in-between temps, opt for a lightweight, flowy bottom and pair with an oversized blazer and chunky loafers that act as the perfect blend of flirtatious and edge.

For that Sunday morning brunch, swap out the blazer for an oversized denim jacket for a laid back vibe that is notorious with a relaxed brunch. 

Tee + Skirt + Slingbacks

A perfect T-shirt is the ultimate weekend standard and a great foundation for the perfect brunch outfit.

When a voluminous shirt is paired with a classic denim skirt, it is the perfect combination.

A mini skirt on the weekend feels more casual when paired with a classic white tee or a cozy sweater.  For a touch of femininity, opt for pointy sling backs in a fall-inspired color.

If the plan is to dine outdoors, dip into your outerwear closet and let the outerwear be the outfit.

Whether it’s a luxe leather trench or an animal print number, it’s sure to make a statement, especially with equally eye-popping animal print skirt.

Making the outerwear the highlight is perfect for outdoor dining or a rooftop brunch. Don’t forget knee-high or ankle boots to add a touch of sophistication.

Impress your fellow brunch-goers with a model off-duty look. Transform the denim floor-length skirt into an effortless weekend brunch look.

Pair the closet staple with a blazer or leather jacket and boots for a casual fall weather look. Don’t forget a statement bag to add extra elegance to the casual brunch look. 

Jacket + Dress + Loafers

Good brunch outfits have to be versatile. They should be able to go from brunch to a museum and maybe even a bar after that.

Even though the weather forecast is a bit chillier these days, that doesn’t mean you can’t mess around with a closet staple. Black dresses are the essential evergreen piece.

If it gets too brisk, well, that’s what layers are for. Throw on a varsity bomber jacket and a knee-high socks and loafer combination that is equal parts chic and trendy.

Dress + Boots

Sweater weather is here and there are some cozy staples that you will reach for year after year. A dress is the one-and-done fall brunch outfit that’s always a winner.

If you opt for something longer and more form-fitting, however, consider knee or thigh-high boots for a seamless look and an added layer of warmth.

Throw on statement earrings and a wide-brimmed hat to elevate a basic dress.

If you are in NYC, run to one of the best brunch restaurants in the city. For perfectly crispy bagels and an assortment of raw fishes, Sadelle’s in New York City is an institution – long line and all. 

Blazer + Shorts + Mary Janes

On a crisp autumn morning, why not go for fall on the top and summer on the bottom. Swap out a pair of blue jeans for denim shorts.

A pair of long, loose shorts with an oversized blazer is a timeless choice, and Mary Janes keep the outfit looking sweet.  

Regardless of personal style, the best brunch outfits are simplest in nature. They can really add depth to the laziest of outfits, and leave you feeling put together for what really matters: gossip shared over mimosas and ricotta pancakes.

Button Down + Jeans + Flats

Elevated basics are going to be everywhere this fall, making it easy to stand out with a fun print or an easy outfit. Wide leg jeans are now the reigning denim on the fashion scene. Days of skinny jeans are now in the past.

After all, who wants to eat their stack of pancakes while wearing restrictive waist-cinching jeans?

Whether or not you choose to adhere to the autumn season’s unofficial color palette is also up to you.  Add a touch of autumn with a rich brown tote bag.

Blazer + Jeans + Clogs

You cannot go wrong with this tried-and-true fall outfit. Your favorite pair of jeans and a blazer are a no-fail combination.

If brunch is a casual affair, opt for a pair of worn-in white sneakers and a ball cap. It is a quintessentially chic look.
