Dianka Shmatok (23) is working as PR and she is also a model and an actress. She is originally from Ukraine, but has been enjoying the life of Marbella for many years now. Read below to find out her secrets in style!

1. How would you define your style?

It will be very difficult, because there are so many of them. But probably the most favourite ones are funky style, street casual, smart casual and my favorite is full of elegance, but extremaly sexy!!!

2. How much time do you spend dressing up before going out?

Well, it depends how I'm feeling. Normally it takes about two hours, but if something inspires me a lot then I can waist half a day to create the look and put things together ;)

3. How often and where do you usually go shopping?

I never have a scheduled plan for my shoppings. I always like to change and combine unusual things! And my shoppings I usually make in Zara (which I like very much) ,TOPSHOP (I think it's my favourite one), H&M, Mango, Massimo Dutti etc.

4. Where do you get your inspiration and ideas?

I would say it's a big mix of everything that inspires me: culture, people, feelings, my emotional state and of course my preference, the sense which is inside of me of how, when and where I want to look like;) Perhaps something like this!

5. My favourite shops/brands are ..

Chanel, Armani, Prada, Dolce & Gabanna, Versace, Alexander McQueen, Dior, Roberto Cavalli etc. It is in general and they are a bit out of my budget :)

6. What is your favourite piece in the closet?

Everything I have is my favourite and it's all from deep love and passion! But my passion, what I cherish most, is my sunglasses and especially Ray Bans (with a gold rim).

7. What are your favourite colours? Why?

My favorite question! My favorite colors are: black, white, red, gold and peach. Why?! Because I see history in black-white-red and gold. The history of Fashion! And also because they are very powerful, strong and rich colors! And peach color is what makes me soft, nice and tender! It is the contrast between those two! The same contrast as my character!

8. What is the most expensive thing in your wardrobe?

I don't have actually really expensive things in my wardrobe! I have beautiful, exclusive and really nice clothes and all them were bought from not so expensive shops, but they are collected from the collections, which will not be repeated!

9. Which celebrity style do you like the most?

And this is also my favorite question ;) The BEST examples of women who know HOW to tastefully present all their personality, elegance, sensuality in the best and most unique way for me are : Beyonce, Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, Nicole Scherzinger, Ciara, Melody Thornton!

10. What advice would you give to have obtain a good style?

*Search ! Try ! Be crazy sometimes and do not be afraid of changes and have a vision of yourself! Risk mixing different styles and have something extraordinary, which will be screaming out your personality - something that is unique and just yours!!!
