So I was scrolling through my camera roll this morning and found like… six different brunch pics from the past month. Same coffee, different outfits. And honestly? Each one was kind of a whole vibe.
There’s just something about fall brunch that makes you want to put in a little extra effort. Maybe it’s a good excuse to wear boots and oversized sunglasses indoors, but whatever it is, your fall brunch outfit deserves as much attention as your latte art.
These fall brunch outfits should make you feel cute, confident, and camera-ready (because yes, we’re obviously getting the latte pic first). If you’re staring at your closet thinking you’ve got nothing to wear, don’t stress! I’ve got 10 chic fall brunch outfit ideas that’ll solve that real quick. The only hard part? Picking just one.
9 Chic Fall Brunch Outfits Ideas
1. Soft knit sweater + Midi skirt + Knee-high boots
This one’s such an easy go-to for fall. Such a simple classic… when I dash out for breakfast in a cozy little café, this is one of my favorite outfits to wear. A soft knit, midi skirt, and knee-high boots never fails, it always works!
I just throw on my slouchy sweater with either satin or a pleated midi and it feels comfy yet somehow put together. The knee-high boots add a touch of elegance, keeping me warm and making my legs look longer (great!).
2. Oversized Blazer + Straight jeans + Loafers
The truth is that this is the outfit I wear when I want people to think I have my life together while secretly I am running late and running on low caffeine. My favorite oversized blazer goes on, then comes a plain tee, and I wear it with straight jeans that I am convinced I have worn too many times (but lovably so).
Loafers or ankle booties, that’s all it takes, and I am ready to go-looking just as put together as can be and comfy. This has now become a foolproof brunch look for days that require low effort to appear its best.
3. Turtleneck Dress + Belt + Tall leather boots
This one’s for the days when I want to look like I made an effort, but really didn’t. This turtleneck dress is a life savior for me. As a one-piece garment, it keeps me warm and instantly makes me look put-together.
I typically just don one and then belt it to shape it up a bit, before putting on a tall boot. It is incredibly easy, so sophisticated, and perfect when I want to upgrade my look to a little more classy brunch or what I’m pretending is a full day afterward.
4. Silky skirt + Chunky sweater
You know that feeling when you roll out of bed, it’s a little chilly, and the group chat is blowing up “Brunch?” This is my go-to. A flowy midi feels like a little dressed up, but when you pair it with a cozy sweater, it balances out so well.
I’ll do sneakers if I’m lazy, or boots if I’m feeling myself and act like I’ve got some fancy plans (when really it’s just brunch and a group selfie!), but in any other case, it’s cozy, super comfy, and never lets me down. Zero effort required.
5. Trench coat + Tailored trousers + Ballet flats
This one is Parisian-inspired, but make it fall, basically the outfit version of a croissant. You know those days when you want to look like you’ve got it all together, but still be super comfy? Then, this outfit is a good idea!
The trench pulls everything together without trying too hard, the trousers feel a little more elevated than jeans, and the ballet flats? So easy, so cute, and no blisters (we love that). Toss your hair in a low bun, grab a tote bag, and you’re good to go.
6. A-Line tweed skirt or Wool minis + Opaque tights
This one’s a fall classic. Can’t go wrong with a tweed skirt or wool minis. It gives that clean, old money vibe without looking like you’re trying too hard. Just pair it with a simple knit on top and you’re set. More polished and old-money approved.
Throw on some opaque tights to stay warm, black or charcoal always does the trick (no sheer stuff here). Loafers make it feel super classic, and if you’ve got pearl studs lying around? Toss ’em on. Easy, preppy, and totally fall-ready.
7. Leather jacket + Sweater dress + Boots
This one’s for those mornings when it’s chilly outside and you want to feel like that girl, the one who orders oat milk lattes, knows where the good lighting is, and somehow always looks effortlessly cool.
Grab a cozy sweater dress, it’s basically feels like wearing a blanket, but cuter, though. Toss on your go-to leather jacket to give it a little edge. And the chunky boots? Pull it all together always! That’s it. Done. So easy, way more cute, and just the right amount of badass.
8. Plaid coat + Basic tee + High-waist denim
Tee and jeans kinda morning? No problem! But throw on a plaid coat and suddenly it looks like you actually tried. It’s one of my go-tos when I have no clue what to wear but still want to look cute.
It’s easy, it’s comfy, and somehow still gets compliments like “Cute coat!” while I’m just sitting there mid-latte, not even trying. I usually throw on sneakers or boot. And just like that, you’re out the door in five!
9. Wrap coat + Monochrome base layer + Statement bag
This one’s giving rich-auntie-going-to-brunch energy. I just start with a matching top and bottom in the same color, something simple like cream or black, then throw a wrap coat on top. Instantly feels a little fancier.
Finish with a statement bag that pops a bit, and that was it, quiet luxury, but make it easy. It’s super comfy, looks expensive, and honestly takes like two minutes to put together.
Quick Tips for Elevating Any Brunch Look
Wanna make any brunch outfit feel more put together? Just add a few easy things. Gold hoops or a silk scarf instantly make you look like you tried. Swap that giant tote for a cute bag that actually matches your vibe.
For hair, go with a low bun, soft waves, or a chill claw clip, whatever feels easy but cute. Keep your nails clean with neutral shades or a moody wine color (very fall, very chic).
And sunglasses? Always. Even if it’s cloudy. It’s a vibe.
Brunch = The Runway (Obviously)
For real, brunch isn’t just about the food and the coffee. It’s the vibe, the outfit, the photo opp. Whether you’re there for the pancakes or just people watching, these looks are comfy enough to eat in and cute enough to be seen in.
So go ahead, save this post for those “I have nothing to wear” mornings, or send it to your group chat so everyone shows up serving.
