Feeling thirsty for a refreshing drink of fashion? Look no further, London has arrived.
It's no secret that many trends begin in Europe, and slowly make their way West. Particularly, the British have a certain way with fashion, they own it. While there are plenty of trend-worshipers in the U.K., places like Bond Street, Sloane Street, Knightsbridge and Brompton Cross are great for people-watching and observing the latest street chic wear.
As with many fashion capitals around the world, London has its own definition of what fashion means. Similar to a place like New York City, people all around the world flock here for the shopping, people-watching, fashion shows, and culture. Why did we pick London for our "Steal It" segment? Because the street chic wear and designer influence on the citizens of London, inspires and motivates us to rediscover our inner diva.
So just how does one introduce the fabulous British way of dressing into their wardrobe? The items below are a great way to introduce the fresh way of the Brits into your life. Remember, the key with British fashion is to make it your own; use unexpected elements with a classic and clean outfit, and you're ready to stroll the streets of London!
Tip: Going to be in NYC before September 4th, 2006? If so, take a visit over to the MET Museum off 5th, and check out the "AngloMania: Tradition and Transgression in British Fashion" Exhibit, highlighting the history of British fashion from 1976 to 2006. Enjoy!
