Lookbook: London Streetstyle


As I mentioned before, I recently traveled to London, England to celebrate my birthday. I few of my friends joined me on this trip and lets just say the turn up was real! I'll save those stories for another day lol!

To start off my recap of my London trip, I'll be sharing a few lookbook's on the various styles I rocked while in London town. London is a city big on fashion, so I definitely tried to wear looks that fell in line with London style....

Location, Location, Location!
For this lookbook, I knew I wanted to do a London streetstyle shoot. Here I'm showcasing my take on London edgy streetstyle mixed with my personal style. Therefore, I went with a more urban hipster look.

There is such beautiful architecture throughout the city, therefore is was not hard to find a nice background location to shoot. Luckily, I found these stunning building on a small street right behind my hotel.

In this look, I rocked a simple long sleeve dress and added a plaid shirt tied around my waist. I toped this off with a wide brimmed hat and lace up flats. The shirt tied around the waist provide a more urban vibe to the look and my wide brimmed hat give be a bit of that hipster element.

Dress: H & M

Sunglasses: Forever 21 / Choker: Designs by Yaa
Within London, there is a huge African presence and influence within their urban culture, which I love! So, I decided to add some Afrocentric pieces to my look by accessorizing with a cute Kente print choker and Kente print drawstring cloth bag. To finish the look off, of course I added some cool aviator shades.

Hat: Forever 21 / Shoes: Walmart
Shirt: Joe Fresh
Bag: Ghana / Watch: Citizen
Just had to get a shot with a double decker bus lol!
