Yara Shahidi’s fashion sense can be easily described as colorful, classy, and reserved. Yara is an actress in the show Grown-ish. Former First Lady Michelle Obama approves of Yara’a fashion sense and even wrote her a letter of recommendation for college. Yara is a great fashion icon for this generation.
Luka Sabbat

Luka Sabbat’s style is not something that you see often, but that’s what I love about it the most. He is so carefree and fashionable at the same time. He also is an actor on the show Grown-ish. Luka’s style has no limits. From long shirts, dressing in layers, and color block clothing to corduroy pants.
Zendaya
📷
Zendaya’s style is always bold and never boring! Some would say her looks are over the top, but I’d say killer and memorable. Zendaya has an array of hairstyles. For a while, she was known for her suits but she’s definitely been serving looks and giving us a switch up lately.
