From Work to Weekend: 5 Knit Jersey Outfit Inspiration

From Work to Weekend: 5 Knit Jersey Outfit Inspiration

A knit jersey is one of the most versatile wardrobe staples, offering the perfect blend of comfort, style, and practicality. Known for its soft texture, stretchability, and lightweight feel, a knit jersey is ideal for layering and adapting to New Zealand’s ever-changing weather. Whether you need a polished office look, a relaxed weekend outfit, or something stylish for an evening out, a well-styled knit jersey ensures effortless elegance.

From smart tailoring to casual layering, here are five outfit ideas to take your knit jersey from work to the weekend with ease.


Casual Weekend Look

Keep it effortlessly chic and relaxed by pairing a knit jersey with jeans. Wear it over a simple tank top for a layered look or on its own for a clean, minimalist style. Choose a lightweight wool jersey in neutral or pastel tones for a timeless appeal, and roll up the sleeves slightly for an easygoing, stylish touch.  0012B1|DUSKY ROSE

Outdoor Adventures

If you're heading out for an adventure or traveling, a knit jersey is the perfect go-to top! It keeps you comfortable—never too hot or too cold. Layer it under a puffer vest or trench coat, and pair it with leggings or straight-leg jeans and comfy boots. Whether you're on a crisp morning walk, grabbing coffee, or exploring a new city, this outfit keeps you stylish and ready for anything.

Effortless Evening Look

  Elevate your plain knit jersey by pairing it with a long skirt and chic heels or boots for a sophisticated evening look. Statement jewelry and a stylish bag add the perfect finishing touch for a refined, polished outfit. Opt for a fitted jersey and avoid chunky knits to keep the look elegant and dinner-ready rather than overly casual.  0012B1|BURNT ORANGE
