Sunday Style: The Weekend Brunch Outfit You Want

Image used with permission by copyright holder

You’ve made it through the work week, you’ve powered through a night out with friends and now, you desperately need some brunch. Don’t go dashing — or trudging slowly — out the door wearing just any old ensemble, though. No, our guide to what to wear to weekend brunch emphasizes a nice mix of style, comfort, and versatility. We’re taking a short-sleeve shirt paired with tailored dress shoes and we’re throwing in a few other brands you might recognize — all in the name of making sure you look great at brunch, no matter how late you were out the night before.

Filson Feather Cloth Short-Sleeve Shirt – $68

A tailored, short-sleeve shirt made from premium fabric is one way to stay cool and still look polished — it’ll lend itself nicely to a bit of easygoing, casual style at Sunday brunch, and it looks great when worn under a denim jacket or a lightweight navy blazer (an underrated styling trick, if you ask us).

OLIVERS Passage Pants – $158

Nod toward tailored style with well-fitting pants that move with you, not against you. The Passage Stretch Weave fabric is mobile, breathable and surprisingly versatile thanks to the deep navy color. We like them for spring and summer especially — any time you need to look great when heading to brunch in the heat.

Thursday Boots Statesman Shoes in Cognac Suede – $180

Classic suede dress shoes — worn with a cuffed pair of linen trousers — serve a dual purpose. They offer tailored, sharp style and act like an upgrade over white canvas sneakers. They can also be worn into the office on Monday. Sounds like a perfect Sunday brunch style move to us.

Arvin Goods No-show Socks – $8

For under $10, you’re getting that most essential summer style weapon: A pair of comfortable no-show socks that are going to protect your shoes, your feet, and the sleek style of this look. It’s a European-inspired move to pair a dress shoe with no-show socks and tailored trousers and we think it’ll work just perfectly for your Sunday brunch.

WP Standard Officer’s Leather Belt – $78

The WP Standard Officer’s Leather Belt could be the last leather belt you need — that means you should wear it as much as you can, Sunday brunch included. We love the rich leather and the fact that it contrasts nicely with the deep brown suede.

With understated, sleek-yet-simple style, the Timex Waterbury could soon become an everyday staple in your watch rotation. It’s a downright steal for under $100 and it’ll fit right in with this casual, clean Sunday brunch ensemble.

Randolph Engineering Concorde Sunglasses – $219

Particularly if you’re knocking back a Bloody Mary on a patio somewhere, stylish sunglasses are a must. Classic Aviator sunglasses are also a must, at least according to us — there’s no place you can’t wear them, even to Sunday brunch.

So, you’ve got a big interview coming up and have no idea what to wear. Trust me, I get it — trying to plan an outfit that’s in line with your personal style while also being keyed into your potential work place’s vibe is hard. You want to read professional, but relatable; relaxed, but confident. It’s a tightrope walk if ever there were one, but thankfully there are some strategies you can employ (wink wink) to land on the perfect look.

Below, I’ve outlined a few of my favorite tips for coordinating the ideal interview outfit. This isn’t a product round-up per say, but rather a guide to how to think about picking the pieces that are going to be 100% right for you.
Do Research
Before you even think about digging through your closet or buying a new outfit, you need to do some research.

Hublot Big Bang in Glacier Blue

The newest addition to the Hublot MP-11 collection is a formidable presence, measuring a whopping 45mm in diameter and 14.4mm in thickness, so you'll need some major confidence if you want to sport this beast on your wrist. The inaugural Sapphire Big Bang was introduced in 2016 and since then the brand has delighted fans with an array of color iterations, from other sapphire colors to purple and orange. Now, Glacier Blue has been introduced, just in time to keep you cool this summer (in attitude, not temperature, unfortunately.)
Hublot: The Big Bang MP-11 in Glacier Blue

This Big Bang MP-11 features a 14-day power reserve, which is achieved through seven series-coupled barrels arranged in a horizontal configuration, and all of that can be viewed by the wearer. The truly vibrant Glacier Blue (seriously, the blue is so bright you'll feel like you're about to start seeing your breath) is made with a fresh chemical composition but still shares the same properties as sapphire: luminous, and able to withstand scratches.
Technical specifications
This Hublot watch will leave you completely mesmerized for several hours before you even think about the technical specifications, though there are some exceptional details to go over. Inside this MP-11 is the HUB9011 Manufacture manual-winding skeleton power reserve movement. As we mentioned above, there are seven series-coupled barrels, but they've been arranged in a coaxial and vertical configuration so the watch is able to maintain a super slim profile of just 10.9mm. All tied together like a bow on top is the blue transparent structured rubber strap with a titanium deployant buckle clasp.

Patek Philippe on wrist

The watch world is rich with history. With brands like Rolex, Omega, and Tudor coming out of Switzerland, it is easy to forget that they all owe a little part of their success to the father brand of all wristwatches, Patek Philippe. Since they created the first Swiss wristwatch for Countess Koscowicz of Hungary in 1868, they have innovated and led the way to create a massive watch industry that chronophiles love.

This year, at Watches and Wonders, they showed again that they are the best in the business by providing a whole slate of timepieces for us to ogle for the coming year. Here are all the watches Patek Philippe dropped in Geneva that you need to know about.
