I have the Who What Wear Facebook group So… Should I Buy This? to blame for getting me hooked on Rachel Stevens's style. The former member of S Club 7 has been on Instagram for some time, but one of our readers—a member of SSIBT—wanted to know more about her style. Upon further investigation, I realised we've been overlooking Stevens's sense of fashion.
Her IG is full of fantastic, accessible looks, from great suits to pretty dresses paired with sneakers and denim jackets. Her style is best described as classic, and she often mixes high-street with designer. The truth is that while her style isn't particularly "edgy," it's full of outfits that are easy to put together.
I've worked out a number of chic pieces that she has in her wardrobe that would work for anyone. Ready to do a deep dive into Stevens's Instagram and see our favourite looks? Keep scrolling, and then shop some of her key pieces.
