Solent Fashion Soldiers

You would think that trawling the streets at 9am on a Sunday morning, you’d be unable to find anybody with an interesting street style. With Southampton, that is not the case. With an array of Sotonians on the streets, finding people with an interesting street style was relatively easy. People use their clothing to tell a story to the world: their class, age, personality and interests all stem from the style of clothing that they wear. Here, 4 girls tell us what their shopping habits and street style inspiration are, as well as their favourite stores. Listen up ladies, you might get some info on where to look next for your newest, hottest, winter piece.
