Susie Wright is always filled with styling ideas. After all, she's a true fashion expert as a former Nordstrom buyer. She also has a wildly successful Instagram account and website, So Susie, where she shares shopping tips and outfit ideas. On that note, Wright recently took a trip to London, and she saw a range of fashionable items on the London style set that have been inspiring her outfits.
Below, you'll uncover the specific items and trends that piqued her interest the most. I've included visual inspiration showcasing how she's been wearing the picks in her daily life. You'll also see how her daughter, Emily, is wearing some of the coveted items.

Barn Jackets
"Basically, everyone was wearing a barn jacket. There are many different versions, from the classic Barbour style to cool oversize versions to longer lengths, and I noticed some chic women styling them unexpectedly—with skirts!" — Wright
Straight-Leg Jeans
"Talk about universally easy-to-style denim! In my opinion, straight-leg jeans are flattering on pretty much everyone, and this classic style, in any wash, works with every kind of shoe. It's just so versatile. These jeans need to be in your rotation." — Wright
Black Boots
"Black boots (of varying styles) were on the fashion set in London. The styles I noticed while wandering the streets were mostly practical, like Chelsea boots. But there were also cool-girl boots with a more elongated toe, like the Toteme one that everyone loves." — Wright
Longer Wool Coats
"Everyone in London was wearing a longer, slightly oversize wool coat, usually in black, charcoal, or brown. Of course, it was paired with a chunky scarf—didn’t matter whether the rest of the outfit was casual denim or a nice dress!" — Wright
Statement Scarves
"Seen everywhere: a scarf! Mostly solid, chunky knitted styles. But occasionally, I'd see a silky, more understated pattern. This is the accessory to wear right now—any color, any pattern, any style." — Wright
Skirts
"Skirts are still trending. … Clearly, it doesn't matter what time of year it is! Since it was chilly in London, most people were wearing skirts with tights and boots or with flats." — Wright
Trench Coats
"London is synonymous with trench coats, and it'll always be so. There were some layered over hoodies, and some were a little more polished. No surprise, classic Burberry coats were everywhere, but I love my Orolay!" — Wright
Belts
"Belts are this year's must-have accessory, and every stylish Londoner was wearing one! I mostly noticed belts with denim or cinching a dress. But here and there, I saw a belt over a blazer or with trousers. So chic!" — Wright
