That's It—I'm Officially Copying Dua Lipa's Style From This Moment On
I would like to first publicly state that I owe all of my Dua Lipa love and knowledge to one of my best friends, Trevor. I'll never forget the night it all began—we were hanging at his boyfriend's apartment watching the best music videos of all time (as one does). When it was revealed that I had not seen the video for "New Rules" by Dua Lipa, Trev was #shook. No less than 60 seconds into the video, I commented on how incredible her style was, and that was the day I knew I wanted to be her.
After a quick follow on Instagram and many late-night stalking sessions, I learned that Dua wears the brands everyone's talking about, takes the fashion risks I wish I were brave enough to take, and can rock a bra top unlike any human being I've seen walk this earth. Dua, if you're reading this, it's not too late to become my best friend, which I feel would be a natural progression from being my style crush.
Readers, if you're looking for a new fashion icon to fawn over, meet the Dua Lipa outfits we think will turn you into an instant fan. And everyone, I'm officially copying everything this icon wears from this moment on. Thanks to her extremely entertaining and informative Instagram, I think it's going to be an exciting ride. Who's with me?
