Need some outfit inspiration for this Long Weekend?
When it comes to long weekends, the countdown for it's arrival usually starts well in advance but with any event as exciting as an extra day to play, we know it's easy to leave the two key main factors until the very last minute: how you'll be spending the long weekend and more importantly, what you'll be wearing!
We've checked the weather forecast and it's going to be glorious sunshine all weekend 'round, reaching up to 30 degrees in some states! So with this in mind, we created a special edit for you with 3 outfits for 3 different occasion and matched them up with everything fun that is happening in your City over the long weekend.
Brunch
All good weekends should start with a delicious breakfast and a great outfit - and these two outfits are the epitome of smart-casual with the perfect balance between looking sharp and feeling relaxed.
This one is also the perfect ensemble to take from day to night if you've double booked your Saturday plans and need to go from Brunch by the Beach in the morning to Afternoon Drinks on a Rooftop Bar in the City. We kept the accessories super simple with a pair of slides, sunglasses and a backpack so don't forget to pick up some fresh flowers, a cronut or a coffee at your local markets to complete your weekend and your look.
Our Favourite Brunch Hot Spots are:
Sydney - The Grounds of Alexandria, Rubys Diner, Porch and Parlour and The Paramount Coffee Project.
Melbourne - Seven Seeds, Archies All Day, Top Paddock, Smiths and Daughters and Combi.
Brisbane - Kettle & Tin, Pablo and Hop, Scotch and Beans.
Date Night or Dancing
In a dancing mood this weekend? Then this Backstage Dress is the one for you! Team this striped little number with a pair of killer Sol Sana heels and you've got yourself your Saturday Night outfit to dance the night away in.
Date night? This outfit is perfect for a movie and dinner at Golden Age Cinema - we spy some Quentin Tarentino Films and a Studio Gihbli classic from 1988 playing on Saturday Night. Oh and did we mention they serve Messina? You're welcome!
Our Date Night and Saturday Night Party Hot Spots are:
Sydney: Date Night at Golden Age Cinema or head to YOURS at Beach Road Hotel's upstairs section 'The Vallley' and dance the night away to Devola.
Festival Fun
Sunshine, music and long weekends are three of our favourite things and with two great Music Festivals on this weekend - how could you not? This matching Staple two piece is perfect for festive season with it's crochet detailing and and high levels of comfort, making it oh so easy to get from stage to stage so you don't miss out on your favourite bands!
For the guys - we couldn't think of anything better to wear to a music festival than this Stussy tee with the Beastie Boys on the front.
Our Festival Picks are:
Sydney: Check out Yours and Owls Weekender in Wollongong with The Rubens, The Preatures and Gang of Youths to name a few or Listen Out for Childish Gambino, Alison Wonderland, Hayden James and more in Sydney and Brisbane.
