What do you do for a living?

I’m studying nursing at Robert Gordon University.

What are you wearing?

My coat and sunglasses are from H&M, my top and jeans are from Primark, my trainers are from New Balance and my bag is from Uniqlo.

How would you describe your style?

Comfy and casual. I also like neutrals with a pop of colour.

Where do you like to shop?

Mostly on the high street as it’s easier to find the right size. I like Primark for their prices and I also love H&M.

Who is your style icon?

I love Billie Eilish (American singer-songwriter).

What do you do for a living?

I work in employability support.

What are you wearing?

My trench coat is from ASOS but I bought it from Vinted, my dress is from Zara but I got it from a charity shop, my belt is also from a charity shop and my shoes are from Clarks but I got them brand new second-hand.

How would you describe your style?

My style is mix and match, I just throw it together.

Where do you like to shop?

Second-hand shops and Vinted. You wouldn’t see me pay full price for anything. I’ve got an eye for bargains.

Who is your style icon?

I love classic styles so I would say Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn.

I’m a senior executive assistant.

What are you wearing?

My t-shirt is from ASOS, my trousers are from Cotton On which I also got on ASOS, my shoes are from Next and my sunglasses are from Primark.

How would you describe your style?

I don’t really know. I’ve got two kids so I feel like my style has changed. Recently, I’ve been trying to find my style again. So I try to go for comfort while trying to be semi fashionable.

Where do you like to shop?

ASOS and Next.

Who is your style icon?

I don’t have one. I tend to just look at the mannequins in shops and think ‘that’ll do’.

How would you describe your style?

I like baggy/comfy clothes which are easy fitting.

Where do you like to shop?

I tend to shop online as there’s not many options on the high street now. I like Dickies for t-shirts and ASOS.

Who is your style icon?

I don’t have one, I just do my own thing. If I’m walking around and I see someone with nice clothes on then I’ll go and look for it.

How would you describe your style?

My style is literally whatever I find in my wardrobe. I like to be casual and comfy.

Where do you like to shop?

I love H&M and I really love Primark jeans. It took me ages to find jeans that fit but Primark is good. New Look also has some nice stuff and other than that I usually just wear gym clothes. I do like Zara if I’m treating myself.

Who is your style icon?

I don’t have one. I tend to find style inspiration on Pinterest.

My style depends on the day. I’m generally quite casual so I like to wear Doc Martens but I just felt like being vibrant today.

Where do you like to shop?

I love Vinted.

Who is your style icon?

I don’t have one particular style icon.
