The shades

The shades

Sunglasses can never be a) too big or b) removed from your face. These are Tom Ford but Prada, Dior and Accessorize also sell whoppers.
The hair

The hair

It has to be blonde, parted in the middle, tousled and wavy. Capiche?
The top

The top

Voluminous, sheer, preferably vintage and wildly expensive (Comme des Garçons shirt, £549).
The jewellery

The jewellery

One word: B-I-G. Great swingy chandelier earrings, embellished cuffs (like this Paul Smith piece) and a man's watch to emphasise your gorgeous wrists.
The bag

The bag

Supersize (natch) and always to be carried in the crook of your arm, never in your hand or ('I die!') on your shoulder.
The dress

The dress

Maxi, sweetie, maxi. And never tight for the purposes of general sashaying. Head to Net A Porter or Dorothy Perkins.
The jeans

The jeans

Preferably skinny by Twenty8Twelve but kick flare also permissible provided they're hellishly tight around the thigh. Boyfriend cut? Oh puhlease.
The drink

The drink

At all times you must carry a grande Starbucks skinny latté.
