Breakfast dates go beyond a mere frivolity in the Morby household. We like to think of breakfast dates as a crucial part of the weekend experience. In fact, we'd go so far as to say that Saturday is America's official day of breakfast feasts AND that brinner is a perfectly acceptable dinner 4 of the 7 days of the week.
If you disagree, well, you're wrong. And that's all there is to it. That being said, and for lack of a better segue, here's what I wore to our last breakfast date. See? Suuuper lame segue.
dress as a skirt: ModCloth // sweater: GAP (from yeeeears ago!) // tights: forever21 // boots: Earl c/o Blowfish // bag: Monocled Lop // cat scarf: gifted from Caroline! // glasses: Warby ParkerAnd oooooh this scarf. I have this incredible blog friend named Caroline who recently turned into a local friend, and she found this for me whilst thrifting one day. I'm mildly and/or WILDLY obsessed with it, so THANK YOU, Caroline! I keep it on my purse always.
See the Morbys here in their natural habitats, snacking on the food that evolutionary magic has told them to love.
Do you love breakfast as much as I do? I bet you don't.





























































We totally agree and have been known to frequent our breakfast joint so much they say things like "welcome home" when we walk in.
I'm 100% in agreement. Brinner and breakfast dates are monumental!
I love that outfit!
Breakfast is one of my most favorite things...but after moving away from Vermont I've had a tough time finding really awesome little joints to indulge in...maybe that's for the best! Love your outfit...those cats..love it!
-Lo
I love this outfit It looks so relaxed! I never know how to put oufits together its is a good example for me! Thanks Amy
Not only is breakfast (and brinner) a must in my world of food, but eating breakfast (and brinner) out is the ultimate in foodie heaven! I have an ongoing breakfast date with a dear friend of mine; it's been going on for over 5 years now - every Monday morning at the same diner. Life seems wrong when that Monday breakfast date gets canceled. But then I rectify it by going out for breakfast/brinner another day of the week.
Ah, breakfast outings, you make life complete.
Also? I am crazy-cat-lady in love with that scarf!
Hehehe, I love this post! I, too, am a breakfast fiend...I inherited the trait from my father who thinks pancakes are the best dinner a person could possibly have and I can't disagree. You have the perfect out-to-breakfast outfit here (love the kitty scarf!!!)...it looks oh so cozy and makes me want to put on something similar and head out to our local cajun place for a NoLA brunch tomorrow morning: mimosas, beignets, eggs florentine, and what have you. Oh. Yum.
PS: Happy friiiiday! I'm getting my cat today which means I am unreasonably excited. Pictures to come.
Eek! Kristin!!!! I can't WAIT to see your new kitty! Best of luck with everything--making the adjustment can be hard for them, but they warm right up!
im a breakfast junkie. i grew up at the beach where brunch is a big deal on the weekends. i cant quite get my bf into indulging on the weekends, which is a shame bc there are some awesome places to dine in our hood. the worst was san francisco- brunch there is at like 9 or 10 am. crazy, i know. here in nyc, brunch doesnt start until 1.
I am obsessed with breakfast and brunch, but I needed to comment to tell you how amazingly adorable your outfit is. You look like a total peach!
I am beyond jealous of that scarf! I love, love, looooove it.
Breakfast is hands down my favorite meal. What is your favorite local breakfast place? We love Park Cafe
Me too, Erica! We love Market Street's brunch a lot, but we also love Over the Counter for our greasy, diner breakfast fix. We'll have to try Park Cafe!
That scarf is AMAZING.
Going for breakfast is one of life's greatest pleasures if you ask me!
you're so freakin cute. can we meet and be best friends? k thanks
Maria, YES and YES. We can most definitely meet and be best friends. I'm pretty sure it was meant to be. Someday!
The bf and I brunch almost every weekend and try to hit up a new place each time. This week I'm hosting a huge brunch at my house. One of my favorite parts of the week
Breakfast is my favorite too, and french toast will always be my true love! LOVE the scarf! Have a good weekend and enjoy your brunch!
You look SO cozy! Loving the sweater and dress, the two fabrics are awesome together. Cat scarf = puuuuurfect. Hoping you enjoy more wee breakfast outings this month!
SO excited to have found your blog! Hello from your newest follower
I love your style, and the title is super cute. Also... if that cat scarf goes missing, don't worry, it will show up on my blog and you can look at it from time to time. Ok?
Hi Megan!! Thank you so so much for finding me and reading! I'm so happy you're here, and I hope you'll stay.
Happy Friday!
Love that sweater! It just looks so cozy
I couldn't agree with you more, brinner is one of the best meals ever!
And really, that scarf?! That is too perfect! I need to find one immediately!
I DO!!! I effing LOVE breakfast. I can eat nothing but breakfast food 24/7 and be a happy girl. Luckily Jen will whip us up a gigantic breakfast at least once a week. /nom
Also, your outfit is probably one of my most favorite outfits ever of all time!
P.S. We didn't get to go look at Modern Display! *sadface* But Gardner was awesome. Did you know they're closing down the Wild West shop?! I am so upset!!!
awww girrl, you look super slouchy and cute. feels like it would be the most snuggly breakfast date ever.
i own that dress! Or actually one similer to it.l Its navy with tan cats on it. I got it from h&m!
Breakfast dates are by far superior to conventional evening dates- the day is your oyster (and so is the pastry shelf)!! In fact, we've pretty much given up on evening dates, in favor of having more breakfast dates... life is good.
Boy oh boy do I love a fellow cat lady.

Oh my gosh I LOVE breakfast! I could eat it for every meal. You look beautiful as always.
breakfast is the greatest meal of the entire day. we try and go out to breakfast once if we can and if we can't then we have gotten good at making it at home. breakfast dates though are my favorite!
xo,

Oh my goodness! That scarf is amazing!!
