LONG WEEKEND STYLE:
Staycation
If your ideal agenda is the one gathering dust back at the office, it’s safe to say we have the outfit formula for those who plan on having no plan at all. A weekend spent indoors passing the hours getting plenty of rest is an idyllic sojourn many of us pine for.

About town
Soften into relaxed shapes and elegant lines with this off-duty outfit formula building on timeless pieces you likely already have on hand. We’ve kept it on the lighter side, leaning into creams, champagnes, and oaky hues for an overall look that’s as contemporary as it is chic. To top off this ensemble, add a luxury timepiece… and perhaps a mimosa?
Camilla and Marc ‘Bristol’ trench coat in White Oak, $1,020. Caitlin Crisp ‘Loveline’ top, $295. Loewe Anagram appliquéd jeans, $1,542 from Net-a-porter. Isabel Marant ‘Oksan Moon’ suede bag in Camel, $1,098 from Workshop. Rolex ‘Datejust 31’ watch, POA. Deadly Ponies Rider Boot in Coconut, $699.
LONG WEEKEND STYLE:
Country retreat
We’re entering our equestrian-chic era. Embrace heritage-inspired checks, plaids, and herringbone for an outfit formula that’s bound for cross country escapes. Trade in your loafers for some knee-high riding boots and your button down shirts for a roll neck sweater and feel the confines of your corporate 9-5 fade into the distance. Perfect for promenading through the township, navigating grapes at the vineyard, and joining friends and family around an open fireplace.
Kowtow quilted jacket, $429. Christian Dior fedora, $2,694 from Net-a-porter. R.M. Williams ‘Eden’ sweater, $380. COS herringbone wool-blend skirt, $175. Deadly Ponies ‘Mr Cinch Mini’ in Lilypad, $579. ESSĒN Riding Boot, $1,200 from Maggie Marilyn.
