As the face of Burberry, you’d think Cara Delevingne would always want to be clad in designer stilettos and silken dresses, even when running errands or having lunch out with friends.

But the now 21-year old model (she just had her birthday a few days ago) prefers statement shirts over lace tops and skinny pants over skirts. Cara has definitely mastered the art of ’90s fashion as evidenced in her numerous ensembles inspired by this decade.

Although she has an avid penchant for casual ’90s style, eyes still zero in on her. This is true even when she is surrounded by equally stylish friends such as Rihanna, Rita Ora, and Georgia May Jagger.

Cara is a hardcore fan of statement shirts. She is often seen wearing one. Let’s take a look at some of her photographed outfits wearing interesting tops:

1. “Squeeze This” Statement Tee

With her “Squeeze This” statement tee, Cara created a buzz in the fashion world by arriving in this dressed down outfit to a formal event.

Everyone else was dressed to the nines but Cara simply went for this racy tee from ASOS and capped off the look with red satin pumps, tailored pants, and a clutch, all from Burberry.
