Style Notes: We have hot-weather outfit envy with Victoria's effortless ensemble. Her instantly recognisable Chloe mini bag is framed perfectly by a red miniskirt and white tee. Not to mention those chunky trainers—swoon.

Style Notes: Shan's silky shirt looks cool (in every sense of the word) knotted over straight-leg jeans, while her Furla bag is a cute colour-matching addition.

Style Notes: Floral ASOS dress, Moschino crop top and YSL gold boots? Be still, our beating hearts. Curator Maxine certainly knows how to make eclectic combos work.

Style Notes: We love a good printed skirt here at Who What Wear, and this knee-grazer from Zara (where else?) is simply asking to be worn on a sunny Saturday. Note how the wide strap of the Marc Jacobs bag adds interest up top. Bravo, Jency.

Style Notes: Elija is channeling some serious flamenco-girl emoji vibes in this vibrant outfit (in the best way possible). The red wrap top is so flattering with the poppy-printed skirt, which hits the knee at just the right point.

Style Notes: Who knew a white denim mini and black tube top could make such an impact? DJ Dina, apparently. The addition of transparent mules and ankle socks is a surefire way to make any outfit look instantly more fashion forward.

Style Notes: Student Yato proves that heritage fabrics needn't be constrained to the winter months. This girl knows how to accessorise, and we're going to be copying her knotted-scarf-as-a-belt styling trick—oh, and lusting after that Gucci bag.

Fausta Sukyte

Style Notes: Fausta dazzles in yet another vintage showstopper (London girls sure know how to thrift). She dials down the blazer's razzmatazz with a pair of androgynous black trousers but adds shape with a cinching belt.
