If you don't know Madelaine Petsch, allow me to introduce you to your new style crush. You may recognize the actress from her breakout role on the hit CW show Riverdale. Madelaine plays the ultimate mean girl Cheryl Blossom, who also has some pretty mean style.
While her style on the show is a mix between preppy and sultry (let's not forget her trademark pops of red!), Madelaine's style IRL is pretty darn amazing, too. Clearly, her amazing style hasn't gone unnoticed, since she recently teamed up with Shein for an ultrachic collection of jackets, dresses, and more, and we're pretty sure she's just getting started.
Read on to get a look at some of Madelaine's most memorable ensembles to see why we're obsessed.
