I don't know what it is that perpetuates this notion, but I don't think I would be alone if I said from an American perspective British tastes are somehow more sophisticated, quirky, or simply more interesting than American tastes. We cannot conjure this particular image of a Brit without also extending the notion to their style. Think about style icons such as Kate Moss, Agyness Deyn, and Alexa Chung, each with her own unique look and take on current trends.
London is an excellent spot to get a feel for local style.
These girls certainly have a flair for fashion with some refreshingly original ensembles.
