Last week Emily Ratajkowski made headlines cohosting the annual British Vogue x Self Portrait summer fête at Chiltern Firehouse. Naturally she turned heads all night in a cut-out dress.
Now, back on her home turf in New York City, she was spotted carrying a souvenir from her time on British soil in the form of a Daunt Books tote—a favorite of Tube commuters. Of course, EmRata put her usual sexy spin on things in an outfit that consisted of a black tank top, blue denim cut-off Daisy Dukes worn with a gold-buckled black leather belt, black wraparound shades and a white pair of Reebok trainers (another UK wardrobe essential).
When it comes to fashion, London’s vibrant culture can be celebrated in countless ways, from a floral printed scarf from Liberty to a classic beige Burberry trench. Since she’s an author, though, it makes sense that EmRata would go for something a little more, well, literary—or perhaps she’s just been influenced by fellow Manhattan It girl Katie Holmes. The Dawson’s Creek alumna couldn’t be parted from her McNally Jackson tote, from New York City’s closest equivalent of Daunt, last summer.
