Precisely executed, fancy Sunday brunch outfits got a playful update with a thin knit top this season. Completely reimagined in black and translated into event-friendly options, it is high time to reach for knits.

Obv it’s not your fault, but at the end of the day, you will see there is nothing you can do. Authorities won’t protect you. In my experience, the safest bet is a baggy, oversized silhouette.

Chanel some old-fashioned romance in a boatneck sweater. There is something unfailingly elegant in a boatneck paired with mini skirt and black patent leather pumps, which suggests a confident approach to style. As a bonus, they are also more practical as we step into a colder season.
As September bathes Ljubljana in a warm, golden glow, we step out onto the charming streets in outfit that effortlessly combines elegance and a hint of Parisian chic. The white boat neck sweater drapes over my shoulders, providing comfort and style in equal measure. Paired with a trendy black low waist mini skirt, I feel a sense of confident allure with each step.
My black babies with multiple straps (some of the top 3 most fashionable shoes of the season), resplendent in patent leather, complete the look with a dash of cutesy. They clasp my feet with multiple straps, adding a touch of playful charm to my outfit as I head towards the Kavarna Union, a delightful café in the heart of the city.
The café exudes an inviting warmth, with sunlight streaming through the large windows, radiating a gentle, dappled pattern on the fishbone floor. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the soft hum of conversation create a soothing backdrop.

As the omelette arrives, it tantalizes my senses; I savour each bite, even though it’s not as perfect as the one I make by myself at home. But the athmospere adds to the flavour. And the flavors burst on my palate.
I also have one freshly baked croissant. Pov, I should have had a soup instead (it’s almost noon) but the layers of buttery pastry transport me back home to Paris. Its layers are delicate and crisp, giving way to a tender, melt-in-your-mouth interior. The buttery richness is a sheer delight, and I savor every morsel.

9 RED SKIRT SET WITH SLINGBACKS
A cute co-ord set is my top choice for brunch with mother in law or anyone pretentious, but I decided to bring the short red pleated skirt and a ruffled silk blouse into the mix this time.
A delectable addition to any brunch outfit, a red silk blouse (preferably with cute ruffles) is candied goodness you almost want to take a bite from. And it makes mother in law so friendly, too. Wear it as a charming counterpoint to a short red skirt, but it works equally well paired with an off-duty light blue denim look
