Reeva Steenkamp is no stranger to FHM readers, after she was named in the magazine’s 100 Sexiest Women in the World for the past two years. Not all just good looks, Steenkamp is an LLB graduate and intends becoming a qualified advocate before her 30th birthday. LEGiT found out what works for her when it comes to dressing the part.
Describe your personal style.
I absolutely love fashion! But I prefer to keep it simple by wearing classic pieces and incorporating smaller fun items into my outfit.
What’s your number one tip for on-trend style?
Never follow current trends to a point where you lose your personal style!
What’s your favourite occasion to dress up for?
I love smaller intimate occasions and events like birthday high teas and luncheons.
What’s your number one summer 2012 essential?
My foldable tortoise shell Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses.
Who’s your favourite male celeb when it comes to style?
AKA knows how to dress. From a classic suit to sneakers, he has it all figured out!
Who’s your favourite designer?
Michael Kors' latest collection is amazing!
Wedge heels or stilettos?
Stilettos, honey!
What is your most treasured fashion item?
My mom's brown leather satchel bag from the 70s, it’s amazing!
Do you have an item in the back of your wardrobe that you’ll never wear?
I did! I put them all into a box and donated it to people who would appreciate something warm to wear!
What are your first-date wardrobe staples? Which items make a fantastic first impression?
Keep it simple. Don't overdo a fashion trend; don't kill the colour-blocking trend and blind the poor guy. Be you and shine!
