Frances loves shopping in South Africa

Accessorise everything this season, she says

Name Frances
Age 22
From Toronto, Canada
Occupation I'm an Interior Design student
What are you wearing and where from?
My vest is from Costablanca, my jeans are by Red Engine and my sunglasses are Roberto Cavalli. My bag and shoes are from Boathouse.
Can you describe your style?
I consider myself to have a snowboarding surferchick touch to my style. I enjoy wearing casual clothes.
Do you have any top fashion tips for this season?
Oh, yes - it would have to be accessories. Stock up, girls, you need to get accessorising with pretty beads or scarves.
Which are you favourite shops?
There's a place I visit when I go to South Africa called The Young Designers Emporium. I go there once a year to stock up on my wardrobe.
Who is your style icon?
It would have to be my cousin, who lives in South Africa.
Best bargain you’ve ever bought?
A pair of sunglasses for about $30.
Outfit that got you most comments?
It was a little black dress that had a wide black belt with silver detail. I teamed it up with some leggings.
What was the last fashion item you bought?
I got a lovely dress from The Young Designers Emporium for 300 Rand which is around £20. It's brown and green with a bubble-style skirt.
Who was the last person who told you that you looked nice?
It was my boyfriend who lives in Plymouth.
If you had an unlimited budget, whose clothes would you buy?
I’d love anything by Guess, but I'm always interested in what other shops offer.
Which shop would you never set foot in?
I'm not liking the whole GAP clothing range - it's just too plain and dull.

Do you deserve to be in our gallery of style? Send your photo to Kelli_Prier@ipcmedia.com and tell her why.
