In case you missed it, earlier today Chioma Nnadi was announced as Edward Enninful's successor at British Vogue. She will be the title's new head of editorial content beginning October 9. Born and raised in London, Nnadi has spent the last 13 years working in New York at U.S. Vogue, where she's currently the editor of the magazine's website and the co-host of Vogue's podcast called The Run-Through

In addition to her impressive career achievements, Nnadi also happens to have amazing style. An expert at mixing prints and wearing color, Nnadi is a fixture on the street style scene during fashion month. Below, I rounded up my favorite outfits of hers and the style tips to glean from them. Congratulations, Chioma!

Associate Director, Fashion News

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
