Chic Blouse & Tailored Trousers

If you want to look polished without going overboard, a chic blouse with tailored trousers is your best combo. Opt for a stand-out piece with a bit of structure or fancy details like puffed sleeves and pair it with tailored trousers to give your figure a sharp yet relaxed look. Go for trousers in a neutral colour like black, grey, or beige, and add loafers or sleek ankle boots. Finish off the look with a simple crossbody bag, and you’re good to go.

Luxe Knit & Jeans

A casual yet smart choice for those slightly chillier brunches. One of our knit pieces tucked into a pair of scallop jeans is the perfect balance between comfort and style. Whether it's a neutral toned jumper that draws attention to the intricate details of the outfit, or a super soft cardi with one of our iconic prints, our knitwear pieces always add a splash of NFD to your outfit!

Suede Skirt & A Nice Top

While suede could be seen as a slightly fancier fabric we think that it is the perfect edition to a smart casual outfit. With a midi skirt, you can easily elevate your brunch outfit while still feeling relaxed. Keep it simple by styling our suede wrap midi skirt with a simple, fitted t-shirt or a turtle-neck knit. Alternatively, you pair it with one of our best selling miley shirts and tone it down with some sneakers. And don’t forget to bring a light cardigan with you in case it’s a bit chilly.

Maxi Dress & Denim

If you thinking of wearing a dress but don't want to be too overdressed for the occasion we find that adding a touch of denim makes the outfit more casual. Our wrap dresses are perfect for multi-styling! Leave the dress open and add some scallop jeans for an easy but elevated look. Add some sneakers to dial it down even more or pair with some heels for a fancier event.

Satin & A Simple Cardi

This is another safe choice and totally brunch-appropriate. Adding a satin element to your look can easily elevate your brunch outfit while still feeling relaxed. 

Opt for a satin midi dress with a classic oversized shirt. Or throw a simple cardigan over the top.The vibe is similar, but a bit more smart casual.

Finish off your look with some sneakers or dare to slip on some low heels for a more feminine allure.

A Quick Co-Ord

Do you want another classy smart casual outfit for your Sunday brunch? Then a co-ord set is your go-to. This option strikes the perfect balance between a feminine, chic and easy-going ensemble. You can go for a knit, cosy match for extra comfort (jumper and skirt) or opt for a bolder option (strapless top and trousers) to spice things up a bit. Co-ords create well-put-together looks but with the right combinations, you can tone
them down to more smart casual outfits for brunch. For instance, skip heels and hop into sneakers. Swap your structured coat and wear a puffy long jacket. You get the picture, don’t you?

Co-ordinated Leather

Vegan leather may not be the first thing that comes to your mind when dressing for a casual Sunday brunch, right? But, the key to not going overboard is by styling it with the basics.

Pairing with Her ere is how: Whether you pick a faux vegan leather skirt or trousers you must keep your top and rest of clothing plain and simple. A stand-out piece is enough for the morning. So, wear your trousers or mini-midi skirt, with a relaxed monochrome shirt. Throw a soft jumper over your shoulders, slip on your laced sneakers and you’re
ready to go.

A Mini & Knee High Boots

Cowboy boots are so on trend right now! If you're unsure of how to style them, add a cute mini dress to dress them down or pair with a midi dress for a subtle peak of the boots. If the weather’s still quite dreary, layering a trench coat or wool cardigan over the top will keep you warm without sacrificing style. It’s an easy, put-together outfit that’s perfect for a laid-back brunch date.
