Chinese New Year has always been an occasion to catch up with our relatives and friends. And based on what we’ve seen on Instagram, it’s pretty much the same for many of our local stars. Except that they have fancier wardrobes.
Besides the usual red outfits, many celebs served up major CNY huat-ness by reaching for tiger-themed pieces. After all, it’s the year of the Tiger. As we all know, the tiger has always been an animal full of vigour and vitality. Among the 12 zodiac signs, it’s also one of the ferocious-looking ones.
These celebs looked extra energetic and fiercely fabulous, decked in pieces and accessories that sport the animal as well as its prints and stripes. Below, the celeb-edition CNY #OOTDs that we can’t help double tapping on.
