Linen blazer (UK4) & trousers (UK2) | ASOS Petite
Shoes | Mango
Grey tee (M) | Zara
Bag | Balenciaga

I like to wear matching suits with a simple tee and when I got this navy blazer I knew I had to wear it with navy pants! They aren't exactly the same shade/fabric but it works for me for now.

Sheer Stripes

Striped tunic (XS) | COS
Pleather vest | Feist Heist
Boots | ASOS
Bag | Mulberry
Neckalce | Agnès B.

When I first saw this tunic a few months ago in Europe, I was so tempted to get it. I visited several stores and this was on sale, but I still didn't make the purchase. Forward a few weeks, I was shopping around the COS in Singapore and found this majorly-discounted!! I'm so glad I waited for the sale to drop. It's totally sheer on the mesh sections and I wore a black cami dress under. It's a little short at the back for me to wear it as a dress proper, hence the vest. I love wearing longline jackets and mini dresses together!! It's such a flattering look (to me) and we always manage to get some super cooool shots!

Denim on Denim | Washed & Waxed

Shirt | The Kooples (M) (similar here in black denim, size up for a slouchy look!)
Crop top | ASOS Petite (UK4)
Skirt | Zara (XS, alterations made to fit)
Boots | ASOS (more pointed & buckled options here and here)
Bag | Mulberry

Wore this to a weekend little pop-up bazaar/marketplace one weekend where Ian and I got our first parking fine. Also, I tried an açai bowl for the first time and omg it's so darn good. I absolutely love it. I'll have to learn how to make it at some point in my life. But right now, I'll buy one every time I walk by Project Açai in Ngee Ann City. Tbh, they aren't very cheap for such a small bowl/cup but they're packed with so much goodness!

I basically live in basics denim has been a crucial part of my wardrobe. These denim items have appeared on this space countless times but they're just so comfy and versatile I reach for them all the time. I think great denim pieces are essentials in everyone's wardrobe. I can be worn with so many different outfits and if the fit and quality is great, you'll always look chic in it. Even an extremely simple combination - tee and jeans can look good. That's what effortless chic is all about!

Best Lace-Ups Ever

Shoes | Zara
Dress | Topshop Petite
Bag | Mulberry
Watch | Hugo Boss
Leather bracelet | Agnès B.

This pair of lace-up shoes has been my go-to shoes for work. It's super comfortable and instantly makes any outfit look mega chic. Love the emboss details and shape - you all know I love slim cut/pointy shoes! These ones aren't overly pointy and doesn't hurt my feet at all. I has quite a low cut at the side which is perfect for me as I have really short ankles and most shoes hit my ankle bone in an awkward/hurtful way.
(Once again an awkward ending because I suck at conclusions.)
Thanks for reading!
