Based on the books by Sophie Kinsella, we meet our protagonist Rebecca, a financial journalist who has a rather serious shopping addiction. Add in fun, frolics and fabulous frocks and you have the perfect chick flick. Talking exclusively to People the stylist Patricia Field described her inspiration for the look of the character:

“This character just shopped her life away. Her wardrobe was massive. Her room was filled with racks and accessories all over the place, and it was like she lived in her closet. Field also described Rebecca’s style as being “very harajuku. According to the stylist extraordinaire, the key is accessories, “Don’t buy clothes, buy accessories, accessories in general are what really create your look, more so than your clothing. You tell a story with accessories.
