Female Malaysia – July 2019

FASHION PICKS

“On days when I feel like wearing something

a bit more structured yet not too serious,

I know that I can trust my go-to brand,

COS, to find what I need just like this

sophisticated top. Its straight-cut silhouette

and high collar are work-appropriate but

since it’s oversized, it’s comfy enough to

wear after office hours too. Besides, this

blue shade is calming, especially when I’m a

little stressed at work. I can easily style this

piece by layering a black or nude slip dress

underneath for that asymmetrical play and

A-line pants to ace my meetings in the AM.”

“If the first thing you notice is the sea

urchin-like texture on the base of this

sandal, then you got it – cos that’s where I

would’ve wanted you to turn your attention

to! This pair by Giuseppe Zanotti has a

dystopian edge to it but is also refreshing

to look at with its colourful details and it’s

surprisingly lightweight too. The best part

about this sandal? I get to play around

with my rugged style by styling it with a

pair of sheer, ruffled socks to match my

minimal yet oversized outfits. Easy-peasy!”

“Classic and innovative – that’s my

impression of this Yuichi Toyama

masterpiece. No matter what sunglasses

styles are trending ATM – whether

oversized or embellished – going for

classics is always a safe bet when it comes

to eyewear. I find that this would make the

perfect everyday accessory and the fact

that it’s in a romantic sunset tint makes it

easy to match with almost any ensemble,

from laidback to edgy.”

INVESTING IN STATEMENT PIECES DOESN’T ALWAYS MEAN

FLAUNTING THE GLITZ AND GLAM. GO AHEAD AND PUT A

TWIST ON CLASSIC SILHOUETTES FOR A STYLE BOOST.

I’m always on the hunt for designs that

are timeless yet unique and stand out without

overpowering my whole look. What’s even better is

when they can last through many trend cycles!
