London Calling: What To Rent For A Day Out In The City

by By Rotation


Planning your long-weekend looks & visiting London? We asked Layla Turner, a passionate Rotator & London gal', to give us her top recommendations for places to visit in London and the rentals to reserve for them! Read on to discover the Rotator London Guide.

Ah, London. There’s never a shortage of things to do, places to go or brunches to attend. I’m a firm believer in the fact that getting ready for an event is just as fun as the event itself (especially with a martini in hand, of course). By Rotation makes it easier than ever to curate killer looks - gone are the days of last minute mad dashes to Oxford Street, instead, we get our outfits delivered to our door, leaving you with more time to craft those pre brunch mimosas or find the perfect bag to match your fit - whether you’re heading to dinner at Cecconi’s or drinks at the Nomad.

What To Wear To…Brunch At Seabird

Seabird, located in Southwark,  boasts sweeping City views, killer cocktails and tasty dishes. It’s the perfect venue for brunch with bae on a Saturday or a birthday celebration with the girls. For brunch, comfort is key - think comfy heels and relaxed silhouettes. Of course, it would be the dream to rock up to brunch in your jammies, but in the name of social decency, we recommend the next best thing: that Daily Sleeper set. The IT girl set dominated Instagram and Pinterest feeds in 2021 and it seems the hype hasn’t died down yet. Pair with shearling lined flats from Gucci or elevate your look with Amina Muaddi heels. Happy brunching - and don’t forget to try their secret menu item.

What To Wear To…Afternoon Tea At Sketch

A trip to London’s Instagrammable palace requires a killer outfit - because if you didn’t take a picture in the famous egg toilets, did you even go? If you didn’t know already, Sketch is the place to be if you're in the market for a decadent afternoon tea, boasting delicate finger sandwiches and pretty pastries. Stuck on what to wear? We love this cutesy With Jean set paired with this pink Amina Muaddi bag & heels for a Sketch worthy outfit.

What To Wear To…A Wholesome Walk On The Heath

We’re here for the wholesome vibes throughout 2022. Waking up on Sunday without a hangover? Heaven. We’ve said goodbye to late night bar hopping and hello to early morning walks filled with coffee and sunrises. Dubbed as London’s Montmartre, it’s only fitting to opt for a Parisian chic outfit for a sunday spent in North London’s prettiest neighbourhood. Turn heads with this gingham Kitri dress paired with a Jacquemus basket bag (that I personally have been eying up on the app for months), for a comfy yet luxe fit.

What To Wear To…Dinner At Cecconi’s

After a long day of playing tourist in your own city, it’s essential to head to Cecconi’s for a cacio e pepe and zucchini fritti. The celebrity favourite restaurant is still heavily regarded as one of London’s most luxurious restaurants, so when it comes to what to wear, you know only the best will do. Area does bold colours and risqué in a daring yet elegant way; Go pink in this flattering silk midi dress. Pair with these crystal Amina Muaddi heels for the perfect dinner date look.

What To Wear To…Cocktails at the Nomad

Of course, for a Nomad worthy fit, it has to be from the iconic Poster Girl. Not for the faint hearted, the dresses should be considered actual works of art rather than just a dress, plus you'd get to relive your 2000's popstar dreams. All eyes will be on you. Think you can handle it?
