Question: Summer in London

By: yetmee

Hi,
I’m going to London end of August for vacation.
I would like to ask an opinion and maybe experience from emmagem and other fellow shopaholic friends what should I wear.

I want to look fashionable yet comfortable. It is summer in London, but I’m not sure would it be hot like Malaysia or still chilly. Would be still cold if I wear dresses or basic tops. Should I wear boots? Is it okay to wear leather jackets? where can i shop wedge boots here in malaysia?

Heya, Linda…wow lucky you! London in the summer will still get some cool breeze especially in the evenings. Always remember something for sudden showers in London…

I think leather jackets or boyfriend jackets with funky scarf just in case weather turns chilly with denim skirts or jeans is a safe bet. Basics like Tshirts and tank tops with denim skirt to mix and match…can’t go wrong , wear them with booties for an in trend look.

A pretty dress that doesn’t crinkle with floral and a cool cardigan (day to night) or a pretty smart LBD for an evening out or at the opera !! Boots are okay …but short booties would be more in trend…

Loads of accessories or just buy them there to jazz up an outfit…

Weather is abt 14 -22 degrees celcius and some showers…!

  1. Thank you Yetmee and Emmagem. That’s really help.

    Anyone who selling flat or wedge boots on their site (preferable ready stock) please drop your email or website here ya.

    Thanks again!

  2. Although is still summer end of August, I recommend you that, bring more sweater, jacket , a bit thicker clothes coz it will still be chilly and unexpected rain all the time, don’t forget to bring your umbrella as well!

  3. Heya..
    Eventhough it’s summer, london is pretty chilly. But nothing a jacket can’t take care of. And the biggest problem is it rains A LOT over there! So make sure u pack somewhat a croc shoes maybe (Coz anything else would be ruined). Plus everyone there dresses like a supermodel (i dunno why!) so make sure u look good. that’s all. Enjoy your trip!

  4. Hey,
    I just moved from London to Malaysia, so I totally know what you should wear! It’s pretty hot in London but can be a little chilly so it’s a great idea to bring along a fashionable jacket, like a double breasted jacket, or something like that. A tank top tucked into a high-waisted flowery skirt with a big belt is way hot, complete with gladiator sandals. If you don’t want to wear the skirt high waisted, then don’t tuck in the tank top. Alternatively, you could just go with cute skinny jeans and a slogan/fashion top.
    By the way, London girls DON’T dress like supermodels, they go for a more casual look when going out or shopping. Have a fab time!
