A Guide to Scandi Coolness, by Super-Blogger Lucy Williams
From the streets to the runways, Stockholm Fashion Week has become a hotbed of cool. Delving into this Scandi world of style for Who What Wear is Lucy Williams, the über-blogger whose latest wardrobe, travel, beauty and lifestyle adventures can be found over at Fashion Me Now. The influencer touched down and took to the schedule armed with a camera and some seriously good outfits, and this is the result: a mix of some of our favourite things, like minimalist fashion and meatballs! Not to mention she highlighted the incredible Mango shoes everyone in our office has now bought.
Go through the gallery below to see Lucy's view on Stockholm Fashion Week and the coolest spots you can jot down for that city break you've been looking to book…
