Travel: [What to wear] England in the Winter

Tuesday, November 22, 2016

A visit to England during the winter may get you away from the snow, but that doesn't mean you won't need to keep warm. The weather can be tricky, so I wanted to share some tips to help you pack for a visit to England.

[What to Wear] England


What to pack for 1 week in England

  • You'll want a light jacket, and a heavier one for those colder days.
  •  Sweaters are the key to keeping warm on those cold damp days that you are walking around visiting the sights. I would suggest to bring sweaters that you can layer so that you get the most use out of them.
  • Depending on your itinerary, you'll want at least one nice blouse that you can wear out, and some more casual tees for daytime. 
  • Cardigans are great for layering and if you get a day without rain you can venture out without a coat! 
  • Footwear can be tricky because you don't want to bring anything too bulky, but keep in mind you will need something comfortable, warm, and practical for the weather.
  • Pack neutral bottoms such as leggings and jeans to be able to work with any outfit. And throw in something different like a dress or skirt if you want to dress things up a little.
Other:
Tights, Mittens (hat optional), and Umbrella.
A couple of scarves to keep warm and change up your look.

Brighton & London, England

I traveled to England in February 2007 during my Spring break with my boyfriend to visit his sister while she was attending school there. I had her answer a few questions about dressing in England.

Q.What is a staple item for living in England?
A.Wellington boots (rain boots) and an umbrella.

Q. What is a popular trend you noticed while living there?
A. Girls loved the side messy ponytail and tights with the tunic top.

Q. How would you dress for a typical Spring day?
A. Spring is like any other day, rainy, so I always wore a light Spring jacket.

Q.What are some of your favourite places to shop?
A. Topshop, Miss Selfridge, Primark & River Island. 


We went to London for the weekend where we visited Camden Market which was really cool, and also saw the other typical tourist spots such as Buckingham Palace & Big Ben. The weather was cool, but I was just happy there wasn't snow!
