11 Essential Weekend Pieces For Every Occasion

Ah, the sweet, sweet weekend. We work all week long, anxiously looking forward to the most important occasions for every girl — including (but not limited to): going to brunch, yoga class, mini road trips, and, well, whatever else we want to do. The weekend is full of endless possibilities and, with that, the opportunity to dress differently (and beautifully) for every occasion. Here are 11 pieces that every weekend-loving gal needs.

by Olivia Muenter

Going To Brunch

Brunch is the classiest meal of the day, obviously. It’s girly, delicious and indulgent — so why not wear a dress to match?

Weekend Getaway

For those mini weekend road trips, you need to be the perfect balance of casual and chic. And nothing says stylish quite like an oversized fedora.

Going Out

Because what else are Friday and Saturday nights for?

Day At The Park

I mean, spring is (supposed to be) right around the corner, right?

Casual Dinner

For those dinners that aren’t quite that fancy, but you’d still like to dress up for because, hey, why not?

Structured Skater Dress In Stripe, $103.50, asos.com

Grabbing Coffee

Because what are weekends for, if not for wearing cool jeans and getting a delicious latte (and Instagramming it, too)?

One Teaspoon Trinity Boyfriend Jeans, $142, nastygal.com

Going To The Movies

I love going to the movies on weekends. Nothing better than throwing on a cozy sweater, buying about $20 worth of overpriced snacks, and relaxing.

Date Night

Whether you have something planned with a special someone, or just a group of friends, having a go-to date night look is a necessity.

Night In

Because, sometimes, the best option is just to get cozy and watch reality TV marathons in bed on a Sunday afternoon.

Shopping Trip

Shopping is hard to dress for; you want to look stylish, but still comfortable as to reach your highest stores-visited-per-hour rate. This dress is the perfect solution.

Yoga

Yoga is exercise for people who are too high-fashion to sweat excessively. Might as well look good while being active and chic.
