Get the look: Ellie Goulding
For a launch party at Selfridges, Ellie rejected the traditional cocktail dress for a vintage leather jacket with a prim high-necked blouse and hotpants that manages to be cool and sexy at the same time
Seeing the photos of Britain’s own Ellie Goulding performing at the legendary Lollapalooza Festival in the States made us swell up with national pride (which is hard to come by if you’ve been following the news in London for the past couple of days). We haven’t seen many British singers as young and fresh-faced as Ellie be so successful so quickly, so good on the girl.
Not only is the singer-songwriter super-talented but she’s got a sense of style that we really admire; she manages to fly the flag for quirky British style and nail the trends without looking too pretentious or try-hard at all. Whether she’s spotted slouching around London in a baggy T-shirt with skinny jeans or a dress for an awards ceremony, Ellie always pulls it off.
Check out the gallery above for our favourite looks of Ellie’s along with a few high-street pieces that you can use to replicate her style – we even found the actual top that she wore to Coachella this year. Don’t say we’re not good to you.
