Donna Ida’s Style Notes

Denim queen Donna Ida shares her style secrets with us.


How would you define your style?
My style is basic with luxe accessories. Jeans are my uniform, so I wear them everyday from J Brand to Paige to Mih to Nobody…I have so many different pairs to choose from. I wear them with basic tees from Kain or LNA and always wear some signature jewellery and super high heels.
What makes a person stylish?
I believe style is all about confidence. When you feel good in what you are wearing, it really shows.
Who is your style crush right now?
I have a few – Diane Kruger, Rachel Zoe, Nicole Ritchie.
What item can you not live without?
My black Stella McCartney jacket is a classic, it goes with everything.
Is there anyone or anything that inspires your style?
Just simple chic women. I like a timeless look with modern updates.
What is this season’s must have?
Coloured skinnies have literally flown off the shelves at Donna Ida in every colour you can think of including hot pink, red, blue and green.
Name one crime against fashion:
Wearing something you’re not comfortable in……and velour tracksuits.
If you could give one piece of style advice what would it be?
Invest in good quality basics and build your wardrobe on those. Start with jeans!

Wardrobe essential: Tucker blouses at Donna Ida

A silk shirt is an absolute wardrobe essential at the moment.  Perfect for the office, for the evening and for the day, it’s what I’d call a real style investment piece.  And with this season all about colour and bold prints,  these gorgeous blouses from Tucker exclusively at Donna Ida tick all the boxes.

Tucker by Gaby Basora is a collection of beautiful silk blouses that are designed in a way that they slip easily over the shoulders for a fit that is both elegant and sexy.  The designer has fans in high places with A-listers such as Drew Barrymore and Liv Tyler spotted wearing Tucker shirts.

The exclusive prints from Tucker & Donna Ida range between £240 and £270.  Wear with skinny jeans and heels for an effortlessly elegant look day to night.

Spend or save: skinny cargo pants

The military trend is key for Autumn/Winter and khaki trousers have been spotted across numerous collections. But would you go for the khaki cargos loved by celebs or the high street budget buy?

Left to right: Khaki skinny cargo pants, New Look £25; J Brand Houlihan khaki skinny cargo pants, Donna Ida £245

We’ve lost count of the number of stylish celebs that we’ve spotted wearing J Brand Houlihans - Jessica Alba, Rachel Bilson and Kate Bosworth are just a few of them. The skinny khaki version has been flying off the shelves at Donna Ida. Fear not, they are back in stock now. 

Look out for the new Houlihan in town too. Stealth is the same skinny jean style, but it’s leather. Trust us, it is seriously hot! Us Westfield fashionistas are counting down for their arrival. You’ll find them in Donna Ida too (£300).

But if you’re looking for a more purse-friendly option, check out Next and New Look. Both stores have skinny cargo pants which are rather similar in style to the J Brand Houlihans but at a mere £25.

Skinny cargoes: spend or save?

Steal her style – Cheryl Cole

We totally heart Cheryl Cole here at Westfield HQ and we know we’re not alone. We love her immaculate styling and her addiction to killer heels.
She always looks amazing whether she’s donning a sparkly gown on the red carpet or dressing down in jeans and a simple tee.

Cheryl Cole in Wildfox

If you want to steal her style too, we’re here to help. We spotted her wearing this eye-catching tee and loved it. We’ve hunted down the cheetah print top. Guess what? It’s by Wildfox and it’s available in The Village, Westfield London! Get down to Donna Ida to get yours.
