Steal her Style: Yetunde
Dianne Bourne21/ 1/2008
EVERY week we're out on the style scene scouting out you fabulous fashionistas. This week Diary Editor Dianne Bourne caught up with Yetunde Akinola, 19, a fashion student from Withington, to find out about her stylish look.
How would you describe your style?
A bit all over the place! I like a mix of vintage style and high street trends, I like a collaboration of everything.
Where did you buy tonight's outfit and how much did it cost?
Hat: Warehouse, £18
Necklace: Tiffany, £200
Jacket: H&M, £100
Shirt: H&M, £25
Skirt: Mango, £50
Leggings: American Apparel, £30
Shoes: Kurt Geiger, £100
Handbag: Harrods, £800 - it was a birthday present!
Who are your style icons?
Mary-Kate Olsen and Agyness Deyn - they wear things which suit their figure but also are happy to wear things out of the ordinary, like wearing sunglasses in winter - they're both confident to be different.
Name your favourite shop.
American Apparel.
What's your best ever buy?
Probably my hat from Warehouse, just because I've worn it a ridiculous amount of times - it's so versatile, I've worn it on holiday to keep out of the sun and I've also worn it to weddings.
What's your biggest fashion mistake?
It was ages ago - Adidas tracksuit bottoms and trainers - it's still a very big mistake!
How much do you usually spend on clothes each month?
About £500.
What item of clothing can't you live without?
A good bra!
