If You Have Ladylike Style, You'll Obsess Over This Net-a-Porter Girl
Allow us to intro you to Lisa Aiken: She's our current obsession, Net-a-Porter's fashion director and proud owner of a new style blog, Two Fashion. What's she's wearing, seeing and Instagramming has become a daily investigative process for the team at Who What Wear. This is a woman with (we imagine) a veritable treasure chest of things to wear, see and Instagram, so what she cherrypicks must be of some importance. And it certainly looks that way to us: From the way she styles her sleeves long peeking out from blazer cuffs (we stole that idea right away) to the behind-the-scenes previews of the industry's most talked-about collections (hi there, Off-White backless top), this is a girl with a seriously good eye.
Net-a-Porter is perhaps the glossiest of all glossy places in London, and we've noticed that Aiken's personal style manages to straddle both this demand for polish and the engrained laissez-faire attitude Brit girls are born with. She does ladylike in the most modern way, has a raft of the most current designer tickets to casually flung on, and a growing social media following that's echoed by the number of street style photographers who are snapping away to capture her in New York/Australia/Paris (delete as appropriate to the week) right now.
Less talk, more action, you say? Let's get down to it. Here are the best Lisa Aiken style moments so far, and our picks to help you emulate her look.
