"Style" is a song by British girl group Mis-Teeq. It was written by Stargate duo Mikkel Eriksen and Tor Erik Hermansen, along with Hallgeir Rustan, and band member Alesha Dixon for the re-release edition of their second album, Eye Candy (2003). The song contains replayed elements of "West End Girls" (1984) by English synth-pop duo Pet Shop Boys. Due to the inclusion of the sample, Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe are also credited as songwriters.

The track marked the third and final single from Eye Candy and was also one of the last singles released by the group following the breakdown of their record label Telstar Records and the band's subsequent split in 2005. Upon its release, "Style" debuted and peaked at number 13 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the group's only single not to enter the top 10. "Style" also reached number 18 in Finland, becoming the group's second and most successful single on the Finnish chart.
