Suki Waterhouse entered the rarified world of buzzy British girls seamlessly—hitting all the important notes, from sitting front row at Burberry to being photographed outside of Chiltern Firehouse regularly and building an impressive Instagram following. But this runway model has her sights set on getting into the fashion biz for herself, launching an accessories brand with her best friend Poppy Jamie with accessible price points and a decidedly girly disposition. The self-named Pop and Suki offers best friend key chains, delicate jewelry and, most notably, handbags. “We wanted to work together and create bags that we couldn’t find elsewhere,” Waterhouse explains,” We were really inspired by vintage shopping and scrolling through Pinterest.”
How would the girls describe Pop and Suki’s aesthetic? “Minimal, pastel with a smattering of cupcake sprinkles,” Jamie says, while Waterhouse adds, “A girly treasure trove where you can go to fulfill your pink and fluffy desires.” See how these two fulfill their pink desires by styling their Pop and Suki pink Camera bag, three ways.
Look 1
Poppy: “I love mixing vintage, with high street with designer.”
Suki: “It’s kind of my perfect NYC stomping outfit. I’m obsessed with this jumper, even though it’s built for a 300lb man. And of course teaming them with my new Steve Madden shoes and Pop & Suki camera bag.”

Poppy: “Omg I found that at a vintage fair in Melrose and died over the color and wouldn’t leave without leaving the market. It’s not light enough to wear in hot weather or warm enough to wear in cold weather so I have about three weeks to wear it.”
Suki: “I got this great hat on Portabello Road and had a massive spree at Maje in Brooklyn. It’s easy to throw on and makes me feel like it is nearly Christmas. I found these boots in the West Village at a store called Verdura and I’m obsessed. They are great semi high knee boot that isn’t too sexy.”

Poppy: “Funny story… I lost my luggage and ran to Topshop for the week. I usually mix up my designers more!”
Suki: “The camera bag is the best go-to. Because it is so versatile you can really wear it with anything for any occasion.”
