She always looks comfortable, sophisticated and effortless, no matter the occasion. Stylish British It-Girls love mixing old and new, high and low, masculine and feminine, creating well-balanced outfits that are perfect for your working week.
Keep scrolling to check some great looks and how to get them with pieces by British labels and designers that are showcasing their new collections during London Fashion Week.
Oversised cardigans can be sexy
The British girl loves a good party, and you may never know if she's going to the office straight from a night out or not. She wears her silk skirts and satin dresses paired with a chunky oversised sweaters and ankle boots, achieving a cool and "unintentionally" sexy office look.

Suits with a twist
Everywhere in the world, the go-to office outfit is a suit. But when wearing a suit, the British girl prefers pants with extra-wide legs like this caramel suit that looks even cooler when paired with a black shirt.

Jeans jackets and bikers
Whether a jeans jacket or a biker thrown over a girly dress or skirt gives a bit of toughness to the feminine outfit, balancing the look. It is an excellent styling trick that allows you to wear a satin dress to work, for example. The jacket also allows you to start wearing dresses even before spring. Finish your look with ankle boots like a true Londoner.

Blazers are your best friends
You can't go wrong with a well-cut blazer. Wear a blazer over t-shirts, pullovers and dresses for a polished office outfit. Go for a black and white combination if you want a super elegant and easy-to-put-together look.

Wide legs are chic, and so are stripes
Victoria Beckham is the perfect example of how to look chic in wide-leg trousers. As we mentioned before in the article The items we'll be wearing this year, Bermuda shorts will be a must in 2020. So why not marry wide-leg trousers and Bermuda shorts? Wear stylish wide-leg culottes with colourful striped pullovers and boots to uplift these last cold days before spring.

Mixing patterns and colours
The Brith girl is confident; she never shies away from mixing bright colours and patterns, especially heritage patterns like plaid, which she wears not only to the office but also to go out with friends or during a weekend in the countryside.
