Corporate chic
To get this look just about right you need to piece bits and pieces together. An edgy look can never be considered ‘simple,’ as you’d need a good eye for detail to be able to mix and match metallic with fabric.
Other key players in this sophisticated collaboration are the bowler bag and one-piece navy blue pants suit, which sets the base of the entire outfit.
Subtle elegance
This fashion collage of one of the latest fashion trends was driven by the word "youth." The collaboration of skinny jeans, a flattering peplum lace top and a beige clutch is presentable and versatile.
Personally, I’d have to say that the highlight of this fashion trend is the tube peplum top. Consider this: an ultra-femme silhouette, with a short, flared piece of fabric at the waistline to highlight your curves — what’s there not to love?
Down-to-earth
The phrase "Less is more" could be used to describe our frequently used outfits in sunny Singapore.
The idea of flowy cami tops or dresses could get anyone in a happy mood instantly. Comfort is key and the loose fitting look oozes tranquillity.
Although pairing two loose garments together may almost be a fault to fashion, choosing an earth-toned sweater over a darker base with thin fabric makes everything better, especially if it suits the weather.
Decidedly romantic
This ladylike set will show off your feminine side without being too old-fashioned.
Keep the whole outfit toned down in terms of colour to make it more appealing. This is a good choice for keeping the vibes of romance, femininity and freshness alive, especially for your one on one time with the hubby.
Combining attractiveness and elegance, show just the right amount of skin with cropped tops that have symmetrical cut-outs in places that you wish to draw attention to. Pair them with a midi swing skirt and you’ll come up with what’s more like a ‘fashion classic’ than a ‘fashion trend!’
Casual feminist
On days when the sun is shining brightly and the threat of perspiration affects our choice of clothes, we usually prefer to put less effort into what we wear — so ‘casual feminist’ is the most likely fashion trend to go for.
To mask your "I can’t be bothered much with what to wear" mood, slip on an old pair of scruffy acid-wash boyfriend denim jeans — rolled up at the ankles — and a brightly coloured tank top with extra-layered fabric at the bust. This fashion trend is great for lazy Sunday afternoons and is also ideal for travelling.
