Emily Ratajkowski's Wardrobe Is So Much More Than Just Bikinis
If you're an avid follower of Emily Ratajkowski's Instagram account, then you know her style often consists of stellar bikini and one-piece looks (hey, if you've got it). But outside of holidaying, EmRata has some incredible outfits that are always bang on trend. Whether that's trying a yellow dress, a gingham skirt, or an off-the-shoulder top, she's always dedicated to showcasing the coolest and most wearable pieces around right now.
The key component for making everything look great is that nothing she wears is ever overly fussy—whether that's her clothes, her hair, or her makeup. As a result, we've admired many an outfit of hers, whether that's on the red carpet or just out and about in L.A. Adding to this is Ratajkowski's sartorial trump card, which is that she knows what suits her figure and isn't afraid to use that power to her fashion advantage. Keep scrolling, and click through our gallery to uncover the secrets of Emily Ratajkowski's style.
If you're hesitant to try the bike-shorts trend, copy Ratajkowski and balance the skintight shorts with a laid-back, oversize jacket (bonus points if it looks like it could have been borrowed from your grandpa). A neon T-shirt and chunky dad sneakers make for a trifecta of trends in one outfit. Did you expect anything less from EmRata?

There's no shame in going to the airport in the easiest outfit combo imaginable: a hoodie, leggings, and classic white sneakers. Comfort is key, folks.

Combining a studded suede jacket with a maroon pair of trousers, she tops it off with the embroidered mules that we've seen all over Instagram.

One of the easiest and most flattering pieces for everyone to wear? The black roll-neck. Even better is when you tuck it into a pair of high-waisted jeans.
Of all the biggest trends we've seen Ratajkowski wear, the geek-chic glasses look is one she's particularly fond of.

A two-piece? Check. In Millennial Pink? Check. Plus a pair of barely there sandals? Check, check, check.

While this trend has been going on for some time now (it was massive in 2016, as well as this year), Ratajkowski knows how to coordinate this accessory with the rest of her outfit. By keeping it in black, she matches her top and boots. Add a touch of color with your bag.
Ah, the gingham trend. What were our summer wardrobes before this came into our lives? Here, during New York Fashion Week in February, Ratajkowski was ahead of the curve by wearing a checked skirt.

If there's one thing we've learned about fashion over the past year or so, it's that the striped shirt is a good look, whatever form it comes in. Whether that's a classic button-down or a deconstructed version, such as this one on Ratajkowski, it will make any outfit super chic.

Despite the plethora of street style shots of stylish women in robes over jeans, we're still massively enjoying this trend. Do what Ratajkowski does and make a statement by wearing a graphic tee underneath.

Underwear can definitely be outerwear in Ratajkowski's world. This ensemble is a chic bodysuit under a skirt, paired with hold-ups and open-toe sandals. It shouldn't work, but the strict use of thick black fabric means it does.

Anyone who's a fan of La La Land knows why the yellow dress became such a big trend. Here, at the Valentino show, EmRata proves just how romantic a hue it can be.

Matching co-ords are a great alternative to dresses, but the khaki color and culottes make this much cooler than your average, meaning she can ditch accessories altogether.

We fell out of love with the printed dress for a while, such was our dedication to the minimal look, but thanks to brands such as Rixo, we're firmly for over-the-top bold frocks.
The naked dress trend isn't going away anytime soon, and this was a great way to do the look without being too naked.
If you want to dress down a cute playsuit or short dress, opt for a pair of flat black boots and a Western-inspired belt. Just don't forget the Gucci bag.

Try switching up your go-to black leggings for a pair of biker shorts—ab-baring cropped sweatshirt optional.

Whether they're high heels or flats, having a ribbon detail on your shoes makes your whole look seem so much fresher.
