1. Pernille Teisbaek: This Danish street style star and stylist wrote the book on Scandi style — literally. The Social Zoo Direct co-founder just released her first book, Dress Scandinavian: Style Your Life and Wardrobe the Danish Way.
2. Linn Eklund: For this Swedish blogger, details are key. From fringe-flecked skirts to ruffle-trimmed frocks and souped-up shades, her feed is EVERYTHING when it comes to the extras.
3. Selina Sei: Urban edge — that’s all she wrote. Be it an army green onesie or a fluoro orange sweat, best believe Sei will be rockin’ it like a girlboss.

8. Rebecca Vera Stahnke: Bold color is what this Instababe does best. When she’s not strutting Copenhagen’s streets in daring mixed prints, you’ll find her killin’ it in metallic trousers and OTT puffer jackets.

11. Annabel Rosendahl: Boring? It’s not even in this Norwegian style goddess’s vocabulary. Even the most basic getups stray on the side of showstopping thanks to her use of texture, contrast, and pattern.
12. Karoline Dall: Any fashion gal that knows how to work vintage duds and inject them with of-the-moment edge is okay in our book. A Danish blogger and freelance stylist, Dall does the style game proud with Insta-worthy OOTDs built upon effortless outfit formulas.

14. Darja Barannik: This Instababe is constantly being snapped up on the streets during fashion week, and it’s not hard to see why. From her shades down to her shoes, every inch of her ensembles feel carefully considered — but not in a trying-too-hard kind of way.

15. Sunniva Hartgen: Emerging stylist and photographer Sunniva Hartgen is all about those minimalist vibes, but don’t for a second think that her feed is filled with snooze-inducing looks. Au contraire, she jazzes up otherwise understated pieces with unconventional layering and DDG curls.
