Just because the temperature has changed, doesn’t mean our plans have. When it comes to winter brunch outfits, whether going for a classic late breakfast with a rich, smooth latte, or sipping vibrant cocktails at a bottomless brunch, you need to be prepared for the chill breeze outside and the cosy warmth within your favourite cafe or bar.
Below, we have listed our favourite choices for both casual winter brunch outfits, and bottomless brunch outfits for winter, that provide ample coverage while still leaving you shimmering with contagious confidence.
Casual Winter Brunch Outfits
For if your brunch is just that - a brunch. Eggs Benedict or French toast with coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice. A quiet, cosy catch up with your nearest and dearest.
Long Sleeve Tops
The base of every cold weather outfit is a long sleeve top. From soft knits to thick jerseys, high necklines to slouchy, off shoulder designs, long sleeve tops are the versatile, winter wardrobe staple that you are certain to reach for year after year.
Style a long sleeve top with failsafe denim or a pair of wide leg trousers for a relaxed, comfortable winter brunch outfit ideal for coffee catch ups that protect from the coldest days,
Denim
The pinnacle of casual brunch outfits: failsafe denim.
Whether slipping into a pair of wide leg jeans, a denim dress, or a skirt, denim is ideal for casual dressing. Style with a long sleeve jumper or cardigan for a brunch look, or with a blue for a day to night look to keep coming back to.
Cardigans
An extra layer of protection between your outfit and your thick winter coat, the cardigan is the ultimate, versatile layer for cold day plans.
With designs ranging from minimal and laidback, to statement maxi lengths, to embellished pieces with dazzling details, a cardigan provides not only an extra level of cosy comfort, but also allows you to inject more personality into your ensemble.
Bottomless Brunch Outfits for Winter
For when your brunch is anything but casual. Bubbling prosecco and vibrant cocktails are flowing, food arrives on steaming trays, and music is bumping. Your outfit, while offering some protection from the elements, must also be party appropriate.
Long Sleeve Dresses
Coverage where it matters, a long sleeve dress is the optimum option for a brunch outfit for winter. Style a long sleeve mini dress with thick tights and knee high boots, or a midi dress with tights and heeled ankle boots for a wintery occasion look that is casual enough for a brunch yet elevated enough for cocktails.

Jumpsuits
For a well considered layering moment, slip a long sleeve T-shirt or bodysuit under a strappy jumpsuit. Not only does this mean you can wear your favourite summery jumpsuit year-round, it also opens up a whole new world of styling options. A cropped knit jumper can be slipped over the top without exposing the midriff to the winter elements, or a T-shirt and cardigan combination can be added to create a winter brunch outfit that goes beyond your go-to denim jeans.
Statement Wide Leg Trousers
We all have our go-to blouses and shirts, but how can we style them to make our ensembles a little more interesting?
Have you considered a pair of wide leg trousers, especially those made in more unique fabrics? From sleek faux leather to dazzling sequins, add immediate intrigue to any look with a pair of unexpected trousers.
Style with a plain T-shirt or long sleeve jumper for a more casual approach, then with a blouse for looks that go from winter brunches to festive plans and parties.
