\"London<\/p>\n

The sentence above, by fashion designer Todd Lynn<\/a>, shows one of the most eye-catching\u00a0aspects of this city.\u00a0Surely\u00a0every visitor will have noticed the varied street f<\/strong>ashion styles<\/strong> in London, which range from posh frocks and the trendiest outfits\u00a0to the most personal styles which seem to be saying `this is just me, like it or not\u00b4.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The\u00a0London Fashion Week ended a few days ago. It showcased the clothes that we might or not see in\u00a0London\u00b4s shops.\u00a0Thing is, do we actually need to wear all that we see? People do not seem to care that much unless they are in the fashion industry, enjoy fashion or need to dress in a certain way.\u00a0Some newspapers even have a dedicated section to\u00a0London \u00a0street fashion<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"London<\/p>\n

Now, how would you expect to see people dressed on a Monday morning? Business clothes or jeans depending on where one works? Well, a bit of that too. I keep on seeing\u00a0lovely\u00a0little black dresses with transparent features well before the weekend, even on Monday or Tuesday mornings.<\/p>\n

This apparent `inappropriateness\u00b4 gets quite interesting on Saturday night. Get then ready to see semi naked\u00a0ladies in cold temperatures or under the rain without a coat or so much of a scarf on. But, hey, this is\u00a0London! I just can\u00b4t help thinking about the thickness of that `beer jacket\u00b4 they need to, err, `wear\u00b4 when dressing like this. I was born way too cold for that!<\/p>\n

What I personally enjoy is the copious amounts of creativity displayed in\u00a0London\u00b4s\u00a0<\/span>shop windows<\/strong>, just\u00a0like Selfridges. See picture below as an example.<\/p>\n
