Chloe, stylist

What are you wearing? Head to toe in vintage and charity shop finds. My style is old and comfortable!

Favourite high street shop: Primark

Listening to: Rock'n'n roll and indie

River Island have some serious treats up their sequinned sleeves for A/W 09'
Check the paint splattered dress, the sequinned jacket, the sharp 80s shoulders and the giant tassle bag..

Name: Sze Wai

Wearing today: Converse trainers, jeans from Hong Kong and tee from Taiwan

Favourite shopping destination: Definitely Japan!

On the iPod at the moment: Lily Allen and Madonna

1. Ciara - Work

As if the "LoveSexMagic" video wasn't sexy enough, Ciara's video for the second single from her new album is h-o-t! The girl has had some major improvements in the style department and she's a lot more daring than before..we reckon it goes with the music.



2. La Roux - Bulletproof

La Roux' style screams East London all the way and we love it. She's got that Shoreditch-next-door-look with the leggings and trainers, but plays it up with colourful make-up and statement jackets. Bulletproof look, we'd say...

3. Florence and the Machine - Rabbit Heart

A long way from La Roux and Ciara's more futuristic/80s look, Florence's style is very vintage, floaty and floral, and like her video, has lots of hippie and historical references. She's not very trendy to be honest, but all the more reason to love her!
