Street Chic: Mel's a real vintage queen

She thinks Brick Lane is an inspiration...

Name Mel
Age 25
From Australia
Occupation Visual merchandiser for Miss Selfridge.
What are you wearing and where from?
My top is Miss Selfridge, my jumper is Primark, my trousers are from Topshop and I bought the bag from a shop in Kensington. My necklace is from Biba.
Do you have any top fashion tips for this season?
At the moment I'd say waistcoats, maxi dresses and high-waisted trousers.
Which are you favourite shops?
My favourite is Topshop, but I really like to browse in Camden and Portobello markets, and on Brick Lane because you can always find something different.
Who is your style icon?
I would say Kate Moss.
Which celebrity’s sense of style do you loathe?
Lily Allen never looks good, I really don’t like her style.
Best bargain you’ve ever bought?
A skirt I wear as a boob tube - it only cost £4.
What was the last fashion item you bought?
It was an embroidered top from Miss Selfridge.
If you had an unlimited budget, whose clothes would you buy?
If I had loads of money to spend I’d go mental in vintage stores anywhere!
