Whole day London outfit

33 replies

I'm off to London next week.

Cocktails in a swanky bar (no sportswear)

Beyonce concert in the evening

Walking round London during the day.

Not going home in between.

No desire to carry a large bag all day with a change of outfits.

Had it not been no sportswear, I'd have worn smart trainers with a blazer and jeans, as that's my happy place.

Inspiration for what to wear very welcome. Budget is not big.

I have never been in a London bar that actually stops women from wearing trainers if the rest of their outfit is not a tracksuit… clean trainers with nice jeans and a blazer will be absolutely fine!

Dress, sandals you can walk in, jacket style of choice (also based on weather).

I have timberland sandals which are really comfortable for sightseeing but pass muster in the evening too

Which Timberland sandals @gogohmm ? I'm looking and tempted...

Hmmm I’m not sure I have any shoes comfortable enough to walk all day in that I’d feel ok about wearing in the kind of bar that says “no trainers”. It’s going to be warm next week… have you got a black midi dress and chunky sandals ?

IhearyouClemFandango · 25/05/2023 20:06

What about some flat sling backs like Palmairas or similar?

RoseAdage · 25/05/2023 20:09

I’d pick a different bar.

If you wear a disco ball cowboy hat, surely no one will notice will notice what’s on your feet Grin.

I’d be quite tempted to wear some version of Docs in this scenario. Or at least some flat sandals with a decent sole.

The obvious solution is to wear trainers, jeans and a blazer as you said, and just carry alternative footwear for the bar you're going to.

Enjoy Beyoncé - it's meant to be next level!!
