The Weekday Pieces Your Wardrobe Actually Needs

The Weekday Pieces Your Wardrobe Actually Needs

This is an SB Verified post.

If your wardrobe is in need of a refresh and your bank account is not exactly cheering about it, let us introduce you (or reintroduce you) to Weekday. The Swedish brand has been quietly nailing the student wardrobe brief for years: great denim, genuinely wearable basics, and enough personality to make getting dressed feel like a personality trait rather than a chore.

Whether you're deep into your baggy jeans era, looking for the perfect summer dress, or just want a few pieces you'll actually wear more than once, Weekday consistently delivers. And with our Weekday student discount, you can build out your wardrobe without the post-purchase guilt.

Why we love Weekday

Student life asks a lot of your wardrobe. You need pieces that work from 9am to 3am, that can be dressed up or down without a full outfit change, and that don't fall apart after a term of washing. Weekday is built for exactly that.

Here's why it earns a place in the student wardrobe:

  • The denim is genuinely some of the best on the high street right now: well-fitting, loads of washes, made from organic and recycled cotton.

  • The basics are brilliant. Simple, well-cut, affordable. The kind of pieces that make every outfit better.

  • The brand's Zeitgeist tee series drops a new print every week, pulling from pop culture and current events.

  • Everything is designed to be lived in, not just looked at.

  • With your Weekday student discount via Student Beans, you're getting more for your money on pieces that last more than one season.

The Weekday pieces we're loving right now

When we headed down to the Weekday store we tried on some pieces and here's exactly what we're loving for summer right now.

Deep Halterneck Top – Black — £17.99

We can't get enough of versatile basics. The halterneck does what very few pieces can: it works for a day out, a night out, and everything in between. Under £18, made from soft lyocell, and available in more colours than you'd expect so you can grab one for every day of the week.

Pair it with wide-leg jeans for the going-out look, cargo shorts for summer, or striped trousers for something a bit more put-together.

Wide-Leg Pull-On Lyocell Trousers – Black & Grey Stripes — £32

The trouser that makes getting dressed feel solved. An elasticated waistband and soft lyocell jersey mean these pull on in seconds and feel better than sweatpants, but the wide-leg silhouette and stripe print mean you look like you actually tried. Wear them with a fitted top for balance, or lean into the relaxed energy and go for something oversized on top.

Sheer Cotton Knit Maxi Skirt – White — £26.99

Lightweight 100% cotton knit with a softly textured hand feel means this one moves with you rather than against you — floaty without being flimsy, and sheer enough to look intentional rather than plain. It's the kind of piece that works as hard in summer as it does layered over tights in autumn, which at under £27 is a very good return on investment.

Wear it with a simple fitted top to let the fabric do the talking, or pair it with the deep halterneck if you want to make more of a moment of it. Either way, it's a skirt you'll reach for constantly without really knowing why — which is usually the sign of a good one.

Layered Frill Mini Skirt – White — £32.99

The mini skirt for when you want something that moves. Layers of delicate frills finished with pin hems give this one a softer, more textured feel than a standard mini, and the white is perfect for summer. Worn with a white crop tee it's a full look. Worn with the black halterneck it's a different full look entirely. One skirt, multiple directions. Under £33.

Cropped Boxy Zip Hoodie – Washed Blue — £49.99

The hoodie that makes the outfit rather than hiding it. The washed blue colour is the kind of faded, vintage-feeling tone that works over everything from a printed tee to a tank without looking like an afterthought. Cropped and boxy, so it sits properly over low-rise jeans without swamping you. It's one of those pieces that makes what you're wearing underneath look intentional. Also available in grey melange if blue isn't your thing.

Ruched Tube Mini Dress – Black — £27

£27 for a black dress this wearable is an objectively good deal. The ruched tube mini is one of those pieces that handles itself — the ruching adds texture and forgives everything, while the strapless silhouette makes it look intentionally dressed up without needing accessories to back it up. Wear it alone, belt it, throw a jacket over it, or layer something underneath. A going-out staple and a birthday-dinner staple, simultaneously.

Slim Square Neck Ribbed Tank Top — £9.99

A tenner for a tank top you'll wear constantly. The slim square neck ribbed tank is one of those basics that quietly makes every other piece in your wardrobe easier — tucked into high-waisted jeans, layered under an open shirt, or worn on its own with a maxi skirt. It fits close to the body without being tight, has a squared neckline that looks deliberately stylish, and comes in black, white, grey melange, and burgundy.

Buy at least two. You won't regret it.
