Is it just us or do you find dressing for brunch tricky?

Do you go casual, cute, or a little dressy? It’s a dilemma we have all faced, frantically pulling out the contents of our wardrobes on a Sunday morning.

With the Easter bank holiday fast approaching, and brunch dates growing, we hit some of our local Barnardo’s stores to find a style solution.

The Lace Dress

A cute little lace dress is perfect for an afternoon lunch date, whether it be with friends, parents or a special date. By keeping to a nude colour such as this little number from French Connection, you will find your outfit a lot easier to customise.

You could even team this style of dress with some white converse, a little leather jacket and Rayban style sunnies for a more off duty look.

Bon appetite!

The Playsuit

Who said playsuits were just for nights out?

With the warmer weather just around the corner this vibrant floral French connection playsuit is perfect for a spot of brunch with friends.

Simply add a pair of pumps or sandals to keep your look laid back, and finish the look with simple accessories.

We think it’s ideal for summer strolls or a few drinks in the sun. For only £15, it’s a brilliant bargain.

Your Hero Dress

Everyone needs a hero dress right?  Your go to dress for all occasions, whether it be work, dinner, a date or brunch – we all need that one dress that saves the day!

The shape of this dress is so floaty it will hide a multitude of sins such as that large cheese pizza you scoffed on Saturday night! Just me?

If you’re looking for a look that still has a playful quality to it, then this polka-dot dress may be the one for you. The pleated bottom half provides shape and flow, and the long sleeves will provide that extra bit of warmth.
