What to Wear on a Coffee Date by Season

To help you put together the perfect coffee date outfit, we've created 4 different outfit ideas based on the current season. Whether you're looking for something casual and comfortable or elegant and sophisticated, our outfit ideas will inspire you to create a look that perfectly reflects your personal style and pairs well with your favorite Gigi Pip hat. 

 

COFFEE DATE OUTFIT #1: AUTUMN

A black turtleneck sweater, gold earrings, plaid skirt, chunky boots, and the TY in off white as an autumn coffee date outfit idea.
 
The Ty Off-White felt hat is perfect for a cloudy day when you want to dress up + make a good first impression. Getting dressed in Autumn is one of the most exciting times of the year because you can pair warm-weather layers with cold, allowing you to wear all of your favorites from any season.
 

Incorporate your accessories into the mix. Gold earrings + chunky boots are definitely statement makers… but in a subtle way that will still definitely leave you turning heads.

  

 COFFEE DATE OUTFIT #2: WINTER

A tote bag, sweater set, booties, cozy socks, and the Tan Ezra as a winter coffee date outfit idea
 

 The Ezra keeps you looking put together while still being comfy as heck! The crown is fit for a cowgirl if that’s the look you’re going for - but don’t be afraid to pair your western-style hat with any kind of outfit you want. The cozy socks + sweater set will keep you warm on a cold winter day, while the booties add the perfect touch to complete the look.

Wintertime is the quintessential season for neutrals - from off-white felt hats to darker shades of tan. The muted hues in your wardrobe will pop against the dimness that winter brings - making your lighter outfits a great match for the season - + will camouflage your coffee spill.

 

 COFFEE DATE OUTFIT #3: SPRING

A linen set, slip on sandals, woven bag, gold earrings, and the Aiden in Natural as a springtime coffee date outfit idea.

The Aiden is easy, breezy + beachy. This linen set and straw hat are ready for a spring coffee date! Adding the woven bag and gold accessories finish off the look + complement the laid-back style.

 

 COFFEE DATE IDEA #4: SUMMER

A floral dress, statement earrings, lace up sandals, pearl purse, and the Bre in Natural as a summertime coffee date outfit idea
  

The Bre is ideal for the flower-picking, angelic, easy-going girl. The lightness of the straw allows for a cool head while the wide brim blocks the sun from your eyes, or if you have cute sunglasses for that, the brim sits just right to where there’s plenty of room. 
 
This ensemble is the definition of summer. The breezy dress and straw hat combo ensure that you're ready to hit the beach after you finish your iced coffee.
