Helen Skelton
Helen Skelton might not have been on your radar until now, but the former Blue Peter presenter has been wowing us with her outfits, as she hosts the BBC swimming coverage for the Rio 2016 Olympics, alongside Olympic champ Rebecca Adlington and retired swimmer Mark Foster.
Poolside conditions can be sweltering, but the 33-year-old presenter has mixed up an array of tailored looks from homegrown high street and luxury brands to keep her cool, including ASOS and Whistles.
She might have caused a bit of a stir with her dresses but to us, Helen always looks so fab. She's even been updating her fans on Instagram with her style diaries, using the hashtag #outfitoftheday.
Here's what she's been wearing during Rio 2016 and how you can steal her style.
Day 7
For the final day of the swimming coverage, Helen wore another design by Edeline Lee dress, whose current collection ranges between £100 and £1,000 in price. The asymmetric neckline showed off her toned arms and course, she flashed a bit of flesh with a small front cut-out.
While this isn't one of her strongest looks from the Games - fans made references to toilet roll, bandages and togas on Twitter - her daring fashion choices have made Helen stand out.

She later changed into one of her more sartorial dresses - a navy lace dress with a peplum detail from Whistles. Red heeled sandals from Paul& Joe completed the look, with a red lip to match. An apt choice to cheer on Team GB in the finals.
Helen's Rio style has been her on our radar and we've enjoyed seeing her mix it up over the past week.

Day 6
Helen switched things up again with a mix print panel shirt dress from London-based designer Bin Bin McNiven's label To Be Adored, known for their feminine and floaty dresses. The brand is popular with the likes of Alexa Chung, Fearne Cotton and Florence Welch.
She teamed her dress with her beloved Daisy Street velvet ankle boots, but if you're out and about in the heatwave this weekend, you could always team yours with a pair of block heel sandals or metallic glove shoes.

Helen changed into another winning number - this time a co-ord skirt set from one of her faves, Edeline Lee. The playful printed number featured a cross shoulder top with a cut-out, showing off her toned tum again.
While it might seem a bit daring for the BBC, we're loving how Helen is mixing up her Rio wardrobe with high-end dresses and high-street shoes, like Public Desire.
If you're not keen on showing off too much flesh, this split-front midi-skirt from Warehouse is currently in the sale and teamed with the cami, is perfect for a British summer day.
