Dressing up and not sure what to wear tonight? It’s no surprise you’re scrolling through videos of your favorite influencers for ideas. Apps like TikTok and Instagram make it easy for everyday outfits to go viral.

But style alone isn’t what makes these influencers so popular. It’s the mix of aesthetic and authenticity that they have created. Their posts look beautiful, feel real, and make young girls feel inspired. Being relatable and easy to connect with sets them apart from traditional celebrities.

Here are five female influencers who started by posting everyday looks and have now built powerful brands that shape fashion and culture.

 

#1 : Alexandra Saint Mleux More than just a WAG

 

 

Alexandra Saint Mleux gained attention as the girlfriend of F1 Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc. But over the past few years, she has gone from being known as a WAG to becoming a fashion figure. Her rise shows that influencers can use their style and looks to build their own identity, separate from their partners.

At the Grand Prix, while most fans focus on the cars, Alexandra's race-day outfits became a runway of their own. Each appearance sparked conversation online because of her elegant and effortless looks. With her model-like posture and minimal styling, she created an aura of mystery that made people want to know more.

Unlike female influencers who post every detail of their lives, Alexandra took a different approach. Her Instagram began as private, with rare glimpses of her life.

Even now, her public account feels curated with aesthetic shots and subtle captions that leave room for curiosity. This mix of keeping some things private while still sharing enough made her stand out.

Today, Alexandra has over 2.5 million followers. Young women admire her chic style, and brands see her image as timeless, inspiring, and mysterious enough to feel elevated. Her partnership with major brands like Rhode, where her posts got an average 42.8% engagement rate, show that Alexandra is more than just an accessory to the F1 world.

She's a brand of her own. An influencer with a growing brand. Built on her personal style, smart branding, and cultural relevance.

 

 

#2 : Alix Earle Always Serving in Heels

 

 

Alix Earle rose to fame through her "Get Ready With Me" videos. She shared makeup routines, outfit ideas, and glimpses of her life.

But what set her apart was that her aesthetic was her whole lifestyle. Everything she shared reflected who she was, making her brand feel genuine and relatable. Fans didn't see her as just another influencer; they saw her as a big sister.

Her mix of style and real-life moments draws followers in.

She is now one of Gen Z's most powerful female influencers. Fans aren't watching Alix just for outfit ideas; they watch because they feel part of her daily life. Now, Alix has major brand partnerships, proving her influence goes beyond posting content.

Alix used her fame to start Serving in Heels, where people volunteer to hand out meals in heels(yes, really!). Just like her brand, the initiative is fun, memorable, and impactful. She showed that when you bring your values into your posts, social media can create real change.

Alix has also expanded her influence into business. She has invested and collaborated with brands like Poppi and other lifestyle companies. These moves show that her name and image carry real business power. Her personality, influence, and style all work together, proving that she is the brand.

With her social media, projects, and business, Alix Earle proves that daily life can become a strong brand. In doing this, she's redefining the influencer world.

#4 : Olivia Rodrigo Rocking the Purple

 

 

Olivia Rodrigo has always been in the entertainment world, but she shot to fame with her breakout hits Drivers License and Good 4 U.

Fans were drawn to her music and her down-to-earth personality. What makes her stand out is how she talks about teenage feelings with confidence, and her personal style plays a huge part in that image.

Her fashion is a mix of edgy, punk-inspired looks and softer, vintage pieces. One day she's rocking a leather jacket, and the next she's in a pastel cardigan. That balance makes her outfits feel cool and stylish but still relatable, giving fans something to admire and copy.

And it's not just for everyday wear. Olivia brings her personal vibe to red carpets and magazine shoots too. Every outfit feels true to her personality, making her brand consistent and recognizable. Fans don't just love her music; they also love the way she expresses herself through fashion.

Olivia uses her style as a form of storytelling. The way she dresses often matches the mood of her music and the themes of her songs. When her first album SOUR came out, purple became her signature color. Purple was seen in her outfits, album cover, and even her stage looks. By tying fashion to her music, she created an aesthetic that fans could connect with. It proves that style isn't just about clothes. It can reflect emotions, ideas, and creativity.

In the end, Olivia Rodrigo proves that personal style can make an artist even more powerful. By staying authentic and consistent, she's built a brand that inspires young girls all over the world.

From the start, Emma wanted to connect with her fans in a genuine way. She aimed to show that life isn't perfect and it's okay to be yourself. Her humor, openness, and self-acceptance helped her build a loyal following.
