Despite its often unpredictable weather, there’s nothing I love more than a summer spent in London. The streets are abuzz with people, as are the parks, and any given outing becomes a chance to showcase your style and a great outfit. As someone who lived in the capital for a decade before moving to Scotland, I implore you, do not take a London summer for granted—there are dresses I haven’t been able to wear since I relocated (it really is that much cooler here!).
This year, however, I’ve spend more time in London again, and to make my outfit choices more succinct and carry-on-suitcase-friendly, I decided to take a closer look a what those in capital are currently wearing. Cue a London summer capsule wardrobe.
I’ve consulted the feeds of some of the city’s most stylish inhabitants to determine what to wear when I’m next in town and, unwittingly, I’ve assembled a simple nine-piece, London-inspired edit in the process. So, whether you’re visiting as I am or you’re fortunate enough to reside there, below you’ll find a capsule wardrobe to see you through the next couple of months in London.
