Street Style: Stevi

Street Style: Stevi from Ophelia Fancy for Brighton SOURCE magazine, Brighton's best music,arts,listings,clubs and culture magazine

When LomoKev sent in his latest batch of amazing Street Style portraits (they’ve been featured in professional photography magazines you know), we had a bit of a debate on our hands. Should we make Stevi our choice, and give her a bottle of Tuaca for the honour? Not that she’s not cool enough – my god, there probably isn’t a cooler girl in Brighton – but because she’s already been in SOURCE, on the cover no less.

You might remember her shooting her Ophelia Fancy partner Emma, the pair looking deadly in toy soldier outfits. Stevi looks just as amazing in her civvies but what surprised us is how inexpensive some of her outfit was, especially considering how luxury her lingerie range is. But killer shoes are killer shoes no matter whether they come from Peacocks or Chanel, and the leather on her £25 jacket is every bit as soft as one ten times the price. Cheap doesn’t have to be cheap.

Glasses from Specs
“They’re posh spazzy specs – I think I’m a bit old to have actual spazzy specs.”

Jacket from Dirty Harry
“It’s an original 70s one – I’ve worn it to death. It shouts an old episode of On The Buses or something cheesy like Some Mother’s Do ‘Ave ‘Em.”

Dress by Fred Perry
“My boyfriend bought it for me for Christmas and then Emma excitedly turned up on New Year’s Eve wearing exactly the same one. I like that it’s an expensive dress but it’s quite understated.”

Tights
“I think they’re just Primark nasties.”

Shoes from Peacocks
“They’ve got that naughty office thing going on, which I like. They’re kinda suave but cheap and fun at the same time.”

Lucky Brightonians were the first to discover the delicious taste of TUACA. This summer why not try a TUACA and cola, long over ice and enjoy the perfect blend of vanilla, citrus and cola. Start chilled – finish responsibly
