I like the length of your trench, it looks elegant. Your post reminded me of the only time I visited London, which was in June. At the last minute I threw my old half-trench coat into my suitcase, thinking I was mad because it was a UK Summer after all. There were only a few days when I wasn't wearing it and I was so thankful to have it. I hope you had a wonderful time in London.

Your outfit looks great. I do think gear worn outside a sports setting is more common in the US than other places - but here it is more common than it used to be. And yes sneakers are wonderful somewhere like London with so much walking on uneven streets!! rachylou on "London Street Style" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/london-street-style#post-2283313 Wed, 28 Sep 2022 03:56:51 +0000 rachylou 2283313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Very cute!

You look just right in yours. Interesting about all the sneakers, but, as you say, it makes perfect sense.

Your silver locks are very pretty! Glad you had a fab time :)  You absolutely see it ALL in London! You also see a LOT of tourists in London so it can be hard to see what the locals are wearing. Some in Amsterdam, Rome and Paris. But fun people watching all the same.  CarolS on "London Street Style" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/london-street-style#post-2283174 Tue, 27 Sep 2022 14:12:09 +0000 CarolS 2283174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow -- what an exciting time to have been in London. Your streetwear style looks fabulous. I really like your trench and the length seems great to me. Have been keeping an eye out for something similar for myself for seemingly forever... Despite being a bit tired of your options by the end of the trip, it sounds like you had exactly the right pieces along in terms of both outerwear and footwear, so well done! I personally don't mind over-wearing the same piece on vacation if it means I don't have to haul extra stuff with me.  kellygirl on "London Street Style" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/london-street-style#post-2283169 Tue, 27 Sep 2022 13:51:45 +0000 kellygirl 2283169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What a fun trip and you look tres chic! Love your hair btw. Trench looks great at this length but I don't even own one so...   RobinF on "London Street Style" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/london-street-style#post-2283161 Tue, 27 Sep 2022 13:17:05 +0000 RobinF 2283161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi all - hubby and I just spent 9 days in London and loved it! We went with another couple and it was a first visit for us all. We had amazing weather, chilly but no rain. Did lots of walking, tube-riding and people watching and this is what I observed. Sneakers, sneakers, sneakers everywhere. I estimate 80% of people I saw were in sneakers of all types and styles. Quite understandable with all the walking you do in a large city like this. Also chunky boots, often with skirts and sheer tights and socks showing.  My friend and I talked about how it seems that anything goes with style (as Angie has reported) and that was definitely the case in my experience. Nothing really stood out as being "in" and what everyone was wearing. I did notice quite a few women wearing a striped sweater that I now want.  I didn't see nearly as much gear as I see here the US. I did see the occasional leggings but much more likely pants and jeans and skirts. The jeans weren't shredded as I still see around here but did often have the unfinished hem (which personally I like as it is much easier to hem them for myself).  Attached is my own street style, worn most days. I brought two pairs of sneakers and bought some sneaker-style boots early in the trip. I am not generally a trench coat person but found this rain coat before our trip and thought it would be perfect for rainy days - well it came in handy for chilly days too :) Still debating whether I should hem it a bit shorter but I kind of liked it long. I wore it or a poncho every day and was very sick of both by the time I got home. In retrospect I would have focused more on outer wear and packed a bit more variety. Lesson learned.
