Best Of Surrey Style

What’s the difference between fashion and style? In a nutshell, style is timeless, fashion is timely. Fashion is what is offered up each season, style is what we choose. Fashion is collective whereas style is personal.

We all know those perfectly polished people who ooze elegance and always manage to look fabulous. But style doesn’t have to be expensive or consume our time. Style takes something else, something less tangible than the right label at the right time.

Whether you are a perennial minimalist or a fearless chameleon it’s that innate ability to know what to buy without overbuying. Buy less, buy better, seek out pieces that have the power to transcend trends.

There’s no doubt that our style evolves over time. It’s a lifelong project that adapts to the different stages of life. So, we set ourselves a mission to find five leading ladies who love, live and shop in Surrey and who encapsulate the very best of Surrey style…

SURREY FRILLS STYLING NOTES :

These impeccably cut silver trousers are designed to sit flatteringly high on the waist while elongating the frame. We’ve paired them with a Bardot top in mint green that perfectly flatters Laura’s coloring. Watch Laura on the latest series of A Place in the Sun weekdays at 4pm on Channel 4 and follow her on Instagram and Twitter @laurahamiltontv
