Floral dresses are just so fun. While they can be worn on any occasion, there’s no better time to embrace joy-sparking floral dresses than staycations. As a rule of thumb, avoid slouchy bags as they give off a more hippie vibe. Instead, pick a bag that is more boxy and structured like what actress Tay Ying did here.

Colour-averse? You don’t have to throw on pastels or brights come staycay time. Jesseca’s black and white bike shorts and button-up shirt ensemble offers an alternative. Cop the actress’ look by dressing up your sporty bottoms with an unexpected shoe choice such as a pair of silver ballet flats.

Whether your staycay involves rediscovering the city, pampering spa treatments, or lounging by the pool, comfy shoes are a must. Opt for something that you can easily slip on and off at a moment’s notice, like 987 DJ Germaine Tan’s furry slides. Of course, you can never go wrong with a fitted LBD.

This season is all about thinking outside the box! Fashion girls including radio jockey Sonia Chew have been filling their Instagram feeds with fits featuring scarves tied daringly across their chests. If you are worried that your scarf will unravel as you go about your day, considering wearing a bandeau bra or strapless bikini underneath. For lounging by the pool, we recommend pairing your scarf top with some slouchy linen trousers or easy-breezy cotton shorts.

Celebrity mum Fann Wong is keeping her style game strong even on her off-hours. In this photo, she is wearing a plissé (micro-pleated) dress. Inspired by the 50s, a pleated dress in a floaty fabric and cinched waist is flattering on all body types. The crinkled effect also hides any wrinkles, so you can always look fresh and put-together even if you just pulled the dress out of your weekend bag. Fann matched her pleated midi with comfortable yet chic espadrille sandals.
