We asked all our fashion writers to share a little more about their style and their fashion mistakes - because we've all been there. 

1. Your earliest fashion memory

I read the S Club 7 Style magazine religiously from the age of 5. This subsequently meant wearing the sparkly pink bandana that came with it for every occasion, genuinely believing I was Rachel Stevens herself. That, plus my mother telling me to never ever wear red and pink together (I think she may have just been trying to get me out of the bandana). With the return of 90's fashion right now, I might have to dig this back out. 

2. Your biggest fashion faux pas

It has to be wearing a pair of white Zara trousers on my first day of sixth form and not realising they were utterly see-through until I got home. Now I always do a comprehensive transparency test in three different lights before I leave the house. 

3. The trend you can't wait to try this season

I am super excited to get my shine on and wear metallic everything this season. Metallic jeans, swimsuits and nails, too - we are shining this summer. 

4. The three pieces in your capsule wardrobe you can't live without

I live in jumpsuits, and all three would be a jumpsuit for me. But seriously, a fitted jumpsuit is an absolute must. I also can't live without a perfectly fitting pair of high-waisted wide-leg trousers and a trusted pair of jeans.

5. Describe your style in 5 words

Classic, chic, cool, free-spirited and versatile.
