If you’re heading to London for the weekend, then we’re here with some style tips so you know what to wear and when!
From how to stay comfy and look great to dressing for different areas of London, we’ve got it covered, so you can make the packing process much easier and enjoy your time in this incredible city.
The first style tip for your time in London is to layer! Throughout the year, but especially in the summer, the weather can change at the drop of a hat. One hour it could be really hot and sunny, then the clouds can come over, it’ll feel colder and it’ll start raining. The weather absolutely shouldn’t put you off visiting London because it won’t ruin anything as long as you’re prepared!
Wearing light layers is a great way to stay comfortable all day long, as you can easily take a layer off or add one on without carrying anything big and bulky. With an umbrella and layers to throw on, you’ll be good to go for any weather conditions!
Something else you need to do is consider your shoes. Of course, you want to look stylish, but walking around London is so wonderful and so you don’t want to miss out. So, we’d recommend taking a comfy pair of walking shoes like trainers or boots, so you can explore the city on foot and enjoy every little street corner there is.
Then, to feel dressier in the evening, take smarter shoes or some heeled boots so you can take your outfit to another level! You can get away with wearing heels all over London, so you can get dressed up if you fancy.
Londoners love accessories, so don’t be afraid to go bold and show who you are with accessories in the city. Whether you layer up your dainty gold bracelets for a statement look to match your gold earrings, go really bold with a bright pink headband and matching bag, or go with your designer nude accessories and jewellery, it just transforms your outfit.
Everyone in London isn’t afraid to be bold with their style, so if there’s ever a time for you to show off your sense of style, now is the perfect time!
It’s also key that you dress for the different areas of London. In the daytime, going casual in most areas unless you’re going to a fancy restaurant is good, including if you’re sightseeing.
However, the different areas of London are quite different in the evenings, so if you’re heading out then knowing what style to go with is key. In Mayfair and the surrounding areas you need to go dressy, whereas in places like Clapham, you can go more casual. Make sure to do a bit of research to find out the areas you want to go out in and the best style to choose!
