My Weekends Are Back On—Here Are All The Outfits I Can't Wait to Wear

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.

Coming up: I'm a Fashion Editor, and These 9 Items Get the Most Cost Per Wear

Fashion Market Editor

Indya Brown is a fashion editor, stylist, and writer living in Los Angeles. While going to school at Columbia University in New York City, she got her feet wet in the fashion industry interning at Elle magazine, Harper's Bazaar, and New York magazine's The Cut. After graduating in 2016, she joined The Cut as a fashion assistant, eventually working her way up to fashion editor. There, she worked on a multitude of projects, including styling inbook feature stories for New York magazine's print issue, writing and pitching market stories for The Cut, and serving as fashion lead for The Cut's branded content. While New York has been her home for over 10 years, she moved to Los Angeles in the midst of the pandemic in 2020 for a new chapter. Now she is a fashion market editor for Who What Wear, focusing on emerging designers, rising trends on and off the internet, interior design, and BIPOC creatives and brands. Aside from her duties as a fashion market editor, Brown is also a freelance stylist and writer, working on national print and video commercial campaigns for Sephora, The Independent, and Cadillac. Her bylines also include Harper's Bazaar, Vox, and The New York Times. But once the computer goes down and the emails turn off, she's likely eating her way through Koreatown, hunting down vintage furniture, scoping out new outrageous nail designs to try, or taking a hot cycling class.
