Looks For Your Life: Here’s How You Can Look Chic Even On Weekends

April 4, 2019

Brought to you by:
Here's How You Can Look Chic Even On Weekends


Think “weekend dressing” and most of the time, you’ll think about wearing a pair of shorts and slippers. And while it may be functional, it doesn’t always look presentable, especially when you’ve got plans to meet up with your friends over coffee at that new-and-hip cafe. With that in mind, we’re here to show you how you can dress stylishly and effortlessly for the weekend, with the help of Marks & Spencer’s SS’19 range.

Featuring a large selection of lightweight fabrics — including breathable denim and linen — you’ll find great pieces to suit your style and mood. Whether you prefer neutral colours or you love a pop of colour, they’ve got looks that deliver style and comfort. Plus, Marks & Spencer’s newly-revised prices will make you fall in love with their designs without having to burst your shopping budget.

To show you how you can wear these looks in style, we gave Pei Jun a makeover. Pei Jun tells us that she wants to improve her weekend outfits, and find some inspiration to dress up when she’s not at the office. She also mentions that she likes pieces that are presentable and effortlessly chic. Take a look at the video above to see her transformation!

Whether you’re headed out to brunch with your friends or you’re going on a date this weekend, use these pieces to make sure you always look stylish and presentable.

1. Stay cool in a denim dress
image

Dressing up is fun, but having to dress to beat the Singaporean heat may sometimes take the joy out of it. This is why we are loving this denim dress for the weekend.

A hero fabric of their SS’19 collection, Marks & Spencer’s denim is made from very lightweight Tencel cotton, which helps to keep this dress comfortable and well-ventilated. This means that you can stroll around without ever having to worry about feeling sticky or showing sweat spots on your dress.

On Pei Jun: Triple Glitter Flowers Necklace, $52.90. Denim Dress, $94.90. Faux Leather Hip Belt, $21.90. Striped Tote Bag, $65.90. Block Heel Multi Strap Sandals, $65.90.

2. Embrace weekend tailoring

Think of tailoring and you automatically think of office clothes, but did you know that you can wear tailored pieces over the weekend as well?

The key is in the cut, the material and the colour. Featuring a more relaxed fit, Marks & Spencer’s latte-coloured suit gives you plenty of room to move easily, whilst keeping you looking sharp. Subtle pinstripes play to elevate your overall appearance, and the use of lightweight linen adds a certain laidback charm to the final outfit.

On Pei Jun: Linen Pinstripe Blazer, $209.90. Round Neck Short Sleeve Relaxed Fit T-shirt, $17.90. Linen Pinstripe Shorts, $94.90. Circle Cross Body Bag, $104.90. Suede Mule Shoes, $94.90.

3. Freshen up in a printed linen shirt

Where weekdays are for sober suits in navy and black, weekends are about having fun and breaking out your colourful pieces to wear.

And there’s plenty of that in Marks & Spencer’s collection of linen shirts.

Featuring a myriad of colours — from exuberant floral prints to sweet pastels — these linen shirts make perfect pairing with a pair of white jeans. Plus, you can always count on the lightweight linen to keep you feeling cool, even as the temperature rises. Comfortable and versatile, get a few linen shirts in a variety of shades and patterns for a fast and fuss-free weekend style fix.

On Pei Jun: Petal Cluster Necklace, $59.90. Floral Print Long Sleeve Shirt, $74.90. Pure Cotton Wide Leg Ankle Grazer Trousers, $65.90. Wedge Heel Mule Shoes, $52.90.

4. Dress, $65.90
image

Strike a pretty pose in a comfortable blue linen dress. Pair this dress with strappy gold sandals for a chic and presentable weekend look.

5. Shorts, $65.90
image

Here’s a tip: to look slimmer and get the illusion of longer legs, put on a pair of high-waisted shorts! These linen shorts feature a cute bow tie around the waistband, which helps to create definition around the waist.

6. Dress, $129.90
image

Turn heads as you walk into a café with this punchy orange-coloured shirt dress, which features details such as a tailored collar and front pockets to keep you looking smart.

7. Swimsuit, $79.90
image

With the school holidays just around the corner, it’s time to get your swimsuit game sorted. Marks & Spencer has a fabulous range of swimwear to suit your style, and we are especially loving this striped one-piece. Pro tip: Wear this with a pair of denim shorts if you want a look that takes you to a poolside brunch.

8. Espadrilles, $52.90
image

A quick and easy way to keep yourself looking presentable is in choosing the right footwear. Rather than wearing your usual slippers, step up your style with a pair of espadrilles. They are just as comfortable, and they look good no matter what you pair them with.

9. Blazer, $129.90; and Shorts, $74.90
image

If a pinstriped shorts suit still looks too dressed up, then consider a linen suit in a gorgeous shade of burnt sienna. Not only can you wear this everywhere, you can always dress this up with statement accessories and a cute bag.

10. Per Una Dress, $119.90
image

In need of a quick way to dress up for the weekend? Then this maxi dress is here to help. The mixed patterns are a great way of subtly adding some visual excitement to your weekend #OOTD, and the dark colour ensures its versatility.

11. Shoes, $65.90
image

For the ladies who need that extra boost of height, consider this pair of block-heeled sandals. Whether you wear them with a pair of dark denim jeans or with a romantic white dress, you’re always going to look stylish without having to deal with aching feet.

12. Autograph Dress, $179.90
image

Make vertical stripes your new BFF because they will be your secret weapon to looking slimmer. Team this striped maxi dress with a pair of gladiator sandals for a super on-trend summer look.

13. Per Una Top, $119.90; and Per Una Pants, $104.90
image

Whether it’s for a wedding or a dinner date, some weekends call for a look that’s a little bit more dressed up than your usual shorts-and-a-tee look. For those occasions, rely on a twin-set to keep you looking chic. This wrap-front top and matching pair of trousers are a great way to glam up effortlessly.
