Chinese actress Wu Jin Yan, the star of The Story of Yanxi Palace, schools us on how she elevates the classic black and white look. We love how she opts for a white shirt with an oversized collar and cuffs.

Gemma Chan, known for her role as Astrid Leong in Crazy Rich Asians, is cosying up in fall appropriate knitwear. We applaud how she’s rocking the print on print trend.
It works because she is using big and small prints in separate pieces, while harmonising colour tones.

While we love neutral earthy tones like brown and beige here, wearing a full suit of such colours can sometimes look dull and flat.
But K-pop group member Choi Sooyoung’s styled this monotone look with a relaxed fit blazer and straight-cut trousers that provide a unique silhouette.

Wearing a concoction of bright neon colours can be daunting, but take a leaf off Hong Kong actress Charmaine Sheh.
She keeps the vivid hues to a minimum (the canary yellow trench and red leather handbag) and anchors the entire look with black trousers and embossed boots.

Looking fresh and cosy, Fann Wong is not afraid to step out in an all-white look. All-white never fails to deliver an aura of confidence, youth and purity (and in this snap, she nails all three).
Mixing a jumper with thinner cotton pants gives you the best of both worlds: the ensemble is suitable for the cooler weather while not suffocating from the post-rain humidity that hits Singapore.

Actress Rebecca Lim took power dressing to the next level in this hot orange-red blazer and tailored matching trousers. The white and black trim, paired with the Gucci quilted bag, breaks up the monotony of a single colour.
Particularly good for when the single colour is something as bold and bright as pillar box red.

Nicole Warne, also known as garypeppergirl online, is one of the most prominent fashion bloggers, and this outfit that she wore to the Guggenheim International Gala showcases exactly why.
Contrasting textures, her white lace dress was juxtaposed against the hard, black statement belt and her black Lady Dior bag. It’s delicate but edgy, covered yet revealing, pretty yet hardcore. We can’t get enough of this entire ensemble.

In this brick-red frock, Zoe Tay embraced minimalism at the opening of Cartier’s revamped ION Orchard store (read more here). The Queen of Caldecott shows us a cheeky trick on how to look taller for the ‘gram – take the photo from a lower angle and extend the legs towards the camera.
Presenting the full length of the calves this way tricks the eye to thinking that your legs are longer than it looks, thereby adding height.

Wearing one of her latest pieces from her own brand Blanc & Eclare, Jessica rocked the brown corduroy trench with other neutral tones like light grey and brown.
Adding a beret will always give an extra ‘oush’ to your OOTD, as shwon here.
