Spanish model and DJ Sita Abellan has the approval of personalities like Rihanna and Jeremy Scott, so of course her style is unlike any other. The 23-year-old has amassed a following of over 200,000 on Instagram thanks in part to her appearance in Rihanna‘s “Bitch Better Have My Money” music video (and subsequent selfie with the star), but also for her colorful aesthetic, love of knee-high boots, chokers, and sunglasses. Her style inspiration is Marilyn Manson, if that helps to paint a picture. Plus, she’s obsessed with everything Moschino and Jeremy Scott. Now based in Milan and New York, Abellan can be found DJ’ing fashion parties, taking mirror selfies, and rocking black all summer long. You can also find her performing at the Hard Summer music festival in California on July 30th.
