Sofia Richie: The Style Inspo We Didn't See Coming

Sofia Richie is no stranger to the spotlight. The model is daughter to Lionel Richie and sister to Nichole Richie and is currently a fashion favourite. 

She's also appeared in edgy editorials for the likes of Elle, Vanity Fair Italia, Vogue China, Nylon, and Who What Wear, and she is now a regular on the FROW at New York Fashion Week. All of which prove that she is a serious fashion star in the making right now. To show you what we mean, we've picked some of her most standout outfits over the years and decoded her style, just for you.

Style Notes: This coat by Issey Miyake is actually from the men's side of the collection, but kudos to Richie for opting for something different. You can shop a similar Issey Miyake coat here.

Style Notes: Everyone's loving the rock T-shirt right now. We love how Richie's gone for a classic Def Leppard one but knotted it at the front.

Style Notes: An orange bomber, grey sweatshirt and those Puma x Rihanna Fenty sliders. Oh yes, we like this look a lot. Buy the white versions here.

Style Notes: Top marks for this Fourth of July outfit. The white top and a shirt tied around the denim cut-offs looks super cute but the heels give it a more polished edge.

Style Notes: This outfit definitely has a bit of the Kylie Jenner about it. Which is no wonder considering the two are pals. We love the choker and matching boots, which she wore for this year's Met Gala after party.

Style Notes: An on-trend bomber, ripped jeans and sock boots make this another brilliant casual look.

Style Notes: A grey sweatshirt under a black sleevless coat and leather trousers says off-duty model to us. Which is appropriate considering this is from February this year, when she made her debut at New York Fashion Week.

Style Notes: More of a hippie vibe, Richie wore this cute crop top and skirt to a Marc Jacobs event in 2014.
