If you're an avid follower of Emily Ratajkowski's Instagram account, then you'll know her style often consists of stellar looks. Whether that's trying a polka-dot dress or a daring pair of sunnies, 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.

On Emily Ratajkowski: Reebok Classic Trainers (£70)
Case in point? Ms Ratajkowski was spotted this weekend partying in Mykonos with her friends—Gigi Hadid and Kate Moss—whilst wearing a pretty cool outfit combo. Instead of opting for killer heels, the model styled her bodycon party dress with a pair of retro Reebok trainers. It might seem like a curveball to some, but we think she made it work. The beauty of this styling hack is that it can work with all sort of dress styles—from floral maxis to wrap minis—so we'll certainly be taking note for our summer weekend style choices.

This is not the first time EmRata has killed it in the style stakes. We've admired many an outfit of hers, whether that's on the red carpet or just out and about in L.A. Keep scrolling to uncover the secrets of her personal style.
Style Notes: Never underestimate the power of a crisp white blouse. Emily opted for this bow-front iteration from Maison Cleo, teamed with jeans and red boots for the chicest weekend outfit.
Style Notes: She might wear a lot of dazzling red carpet looks, but Emily is also a big fan of a pretty day dresses and classic prints. She once wore this polka-dot dress (complete with cutouts on the waist), and as a result, tempted us to invest in one more spotty summer frock.
Style Notes: If anyone knows how to make a statement on the Met Gala red carpet, it's Emily. She knows exactly what works for her petite frame, and won't be seen in anything too structured or directional. Instead, she sticks to form-fitting gowns like this showstopping creation by Marc Jacobs.
Style Notes: A little red dress may sound dull, but a square neckline and a nipped-in waist accessorised with a topknot and gold hoops make Emily's iteration feel infinitely cooler.
Style Notes: According to Emily, when it comes to accessories, more is more. She took one neutral midi dress and made it feel far cooler thanks to the addition of a few carefully selected emerald green add-ons.
Style Notes: While we'll always rely on an LBD, this look proves the white alternative is every bit as chic and perfect for occasion dressing. The dress in question just so happens to be Dior, but this look undoubtedly sparked a number of imitations, meaning we can all get in on the action without breaking the bank.
Style Notes: Emily knows better than anyone that no wardrobe is complete without a pair of statement sunnies. From '90s round-frame pairs to tortoiseshell cat-eye sunglasses, every outfit needs showstopping shades.
Style Notes: Dressing for a smart-casual event during the day is tough, but we're taking our cue from Emily and dressing up a cotton button-front sundress with a top handle bag and ankle strap sandals.

Style Notes: If you want to recharge your weekend wardrobe, try mixing up your prints. A playful dress worn with a printed Gucci bag is the perfect combination.
Style Notes: One of the easiest and most flattering pieces for everyone to wear? A black crew-neck knit. With denim or printed skirts, this will serve your off-duty wardrobe all year round.
Style Notes: Whether on high heels or flats, having a ribbon detail on your shoes makes your whole look seem so much fresher.
Style Notes: Of all the biggest trends we've seen Ratajkowski wear, the geek-chic glasses look is one we're particularly fond of.
Style Notes: When heels feel like just too much, elevate a casual outfit with a pair of embroidered flats.
Style Notes: For anyone who's a fan of La La Land, then you'll know why the yellow dress became such a big trend, and it shows no sign of slowing anytime soon. Here, Emily offsets the pretty pastel hue with a contrasting black hair bow.

Style Notes: In contrast to all the streetwear looks is the return to a more demure way of dressing. In Paris, Ratajkowski totally nails it by doing her best impression of Audrey Hepburn. Stunning.
Style Notes: As proven by Ratajkowski, embellishments, be it on a clutch, midi skirt or floor-grazing red carpet gown, will completely elevate your evening wardrobe.
Style Notes: We don't need to tell you that Emily has the world's most impressive swimwear collection, but there's one style that's universally flattering: a red swimsuit. Find your perfect shape and fit and you'll never look back.
Style Notes: 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 modern boho frocks.
Style Notes: No one wears the naked dress quite like Emily, and here she shows us a great way to do the look without being too naked.
