While a jeans and blazer combination often gets all the glory at this time of year, one of Lily Allen’s recent looks has had us considering trying something a little sportier for the coming weeks. The singer wowed while at the 'Collectors Dinner' in celebration of Frieze London, wearing a pair of black, barrel-leg trousers with a light coloured top, which she layered under an oversized pale grey denim bomber.
The star's relaxed cover-up gave her look a smart casual feel that really worked, and she completed her outfit perfectly with a pair of off-white pumps and a slouchy leopard print bag.
Lily’s ensemble was a winner for her star-studded event, but can easily be recreated for cocktail hour or as a fresh take on date night outfits. We have rounded up some very similar styles below that will give your after-hours wardrobe a fresh new spin.
