Shiona Turini’s personal style is high-impact dressing done right – it’s equal parts polished, playful and powerful. A master of bold colour and expert tailoring, I love every look she puts together. From pairing head-turning hues with sharp silhouettes, she delivers looks that feel both editorial and wearable. Whether she’s in vibrant red trousers or a skin-baring co-ord layered under an oversized coat, there’s always a strong sense of balance and intention. Her signature accessories can range from chunky gold jewellery to sculptural silver pieces, and her love for a great pair of heels speaks to me. With a knack for blending cultural references, streetwear influences and runway pieces, Turini’s style is a lesson in dressing with confidence, character and creativity.

I draw inspiration from many places, but lately it’s the sweet spot between these two creators’ styles that’s influencing me most. @SophieSS has an incredible way with monochrome – her tonal looks are chic, effortless and endlessly wearable. Whenever I’m stuck, her feed is my go-to for a quick outfit sense-check. @sviridovskayasasha shares that same cool-girl energy, but isn’t afraid to play with trends, colour and proportion – think pops of pink, yellow, blue and green – all styled in that perfectly undone, never try-hard way.

Whenever I feel like I’m in a style rut, there are a few women I turn to – the ones who remind me why my style works for me. The common thread? They all wear denim. Crucially, they prove how to keep it modern. Take Courtney Grow – her profile accounts for more saves on my Instagram than anyone else’s. Recently, she wore a vintage Polo Ralph Lauren knit, perfectly worn-in Levi’s 501s, an anklet and a little red silk pouch. Simple, yes – but the cuts and proportions were spot on, and that anklet? The unexpected detail that made it feel fresh. 

Another anklet advocate is Meg Strachan, founder and CEO of Dorsey. Her uniform is simple – ribbed tanks, great denim, classic tees, flats – finished with beautiful lab-grown diamonds. Then there’s Livy Duncan, who somehow makes dungarees feel anything but mumsy. One recent viral look featured a heavily unbuttoned linen shirt, crisp white trousers, a statement belt and a tennis necklace. Nothing overthought – just effortless styling that works. Together, they’re a reminder that great style doesn’t have to be complicated: stick to the basics, play with proportions, and add an unexpected accessory.

I’ve long been a fan of Monikh Dale’s style. She has such an eye for texture, tailoring and proportion, which has propelled her to the star she is today – effortlessly pulling together looks that feel both classic and contemporary. While our body shapes are very different, her love of oversized, generous silhouettes always resonates with me, as does her focus on investing in quality over quantity. A loyal fan of brands such as The Row, Toteme, St. Agni and Matteau, Monikh’s style is rooted in simplicity done exceptionally well. I love the way she blends colour while keeping things tonal, and uses accessories to complement rather than compete. Consider me influenced.
