And although no two outfits were the same, all of her looks had a few things in common: a keen eye for detail and a unique, minimalist, elegant femininity. Lady Di achieved this through skilful style clashes and the combination of sportswear , college designs and timeless styles. Oversized blazers , cycling shorts , sneakers with tennis socks and large oversized sweaters took on a whole new meaning under her.
Look No. 1: Cycling shorts and oversized top

Combined with oversized sunglasses, long tennis socks, chunky sneakers and/or a baseball cap , you have the perfect comfortable outfit for all everyday challenges.
