Inspiration for an outfit can come from anywhere. Whether it’s through your IG feed or the runway, we often look to already composed looks to get us thinking differently about our wardrobe. But as we’ve seen the industry adapt over the last few months, it seems about time to look to new resources for our #outfitinspo.
With a plethora of experiences having been disrupted due to lockdown, our usual bank of inspiration is running low. But, with the ability to enjoy the majority of what London has to offer currently available to us, why not look to your everyday to re-energise your garms? Simple pleasures, like the colours from a curated flower bouquet or the cloud formation of a summer sky, are equally as invigorating as style stimuli, and our curated sets based on what we love about London proves exactly that.
A person’s favourite cocktail says a lot about them: a Raspberry Daiquiri shows you to be a sweet treat that's craved on a hot day, whereas an Espresso Martini will elude to a more wired, up all night type of personality. And as equally as they represent a person, they're also synonymous with our favourite moments, as we can always trust our favourite tipples to add a little extra flavour into our lives. Therefore, it seemed an apt inspiration point for this weeks curation of outfits; there being a look for whenever you’re feeling sweet, salty, or ready to pack a punch.
The seductive Negroni is elusive, unexpected, and can somehow mentally transport you to a speakeasy in the backstreets of Florence. Packed with as much punch as there is alcohol, a sip of this cocktail during a weeknight is as cheeky as drinking at all was during the prohibition. If you are feeling particularly sensualist, then channel the Negroni through this flowing red dress from Mother of Pearl, to keep you in toe with the Campari base. These yellow sandals from The Row act as the sweet Vermouth dashing to your outfit, and don’t forget to add a twist of orange with this ruched Bottega Venetta bag.
Margaritas are sharp and acidic, and with that wince-inducing hit of salt on the rim, they're only for the brave. Synonymous with summer, the margarita is still the classic go-to for a reason. Channel this vida mexicana in your outfit, and highlight your wild side with this tequila-toned skirt from Arket. Feel as zesty as freshly-squeezed lime in this glittery Oséree crop top, and complete with a sprinkle of salt via these Adidas trainers and sparkly gold earrings from Hermina Athens.
Frothy, juicy and a conversation starter, the Pornstar Martini is the drink of choice for the most sociable party-goers. The base of any Martini is the silky vodka, which you can represent in this satin mini skirt from & Other Stories. Add in the passion-fruit juice and liqueur with these peachy shorts from Palm Angels. Finally, incorporate the pièce de résistance of the drink with this shimmery purple crop top from Paloma Wool, which encompasses both the passion-fruit itself and the bubbly Prosecco in one statement piece.
