Need some workwear inspo? Take it from Son Ye-jin, members of Blackpink, Bae Suzy and more

by Ho Guo Xiong  /   February 6, 2022

Many of us would have started heading back to the office, now that the Singapore government has eased workplace restrictions. Unfortunately, this means that we’ll have to ditch loungewear for more presentable and office-appropriate outfits. Buh-bye for now, cozy cami and co-ord sets.

No idea what stylish workwear looks like anymore? Check out these style inspirations from Korean celebs – including Son Ye-jin, members of Blackpink and Suzy Bae – for three weeks’ worth of office outfits.

Lisa

A button-down shirt is definitely a wardrobe essential you would own. Besides wearing it with tailored trousers and a blazer, take a leaf from Blackpink’s Lisa and pair it with a knitted vest, shorts and a crossbody bag.

Han So-hee

A skirt suit like the one Han So-hee is wearing is a no-brainer outfit to throw together on busy mornings. You can also take them apart and style them with other pieces in your wardrobe. Here, we’ve paired it with the same bag she’s sporting as well as a pair of heels that’s more Singapore weather- and office-friendly.

Rosé

Blackpink’s Rosé’s outfit is the perfect I-woke-up-too-late-and-now-I’m-rushing look to throw together. It consists of a simple black top, high-waisted jeans, a shoulder bag and a pair of sleek black pointed heels – all items you would likely already own.

Taeyeon
image

This ensemble by Taeyeon is an amalgamation of geek chic and Parisian flair thanks to the addition of a pair of oversized glasses, a beret and a striped top. The colour aspects of the outfit were then grounded by an earthy brown skirt.

Jennie

From feminine to streetwear, Blackpink’s Jennie’s style is easy to emulate and office-friendly. This look features a bodysuit (no need to fuss with keeping shirts tucked in!), black cargo pants, boots and a brown jacket to keep you warm (and stylish) in the frigid office.

Son Ye-jin
image

Whether she’s playing Yoon Se-ri in Crash Landing On You (2019) or living her best life with Hyun Bin, Son Ye-jin always serves up chic looks that are easy to style. You can easily recreate the look with a black top (which you’ll likely already own) and a white sequinned skirt. We chose understated diamond studs and a pendant necklace to complement the bling of the skirt.

Hwasa

A sharp co-ord suit never fails and Mamamoo’s Hwasa is aware of that. So take a leaf off the stylish singer’s page, pick up a tailored suit of your own and finish the look with a plush white handbag and black boots.

Jisoo

As we enter the warmer months, it is time to lean into spring and summer colours starting with yellow like Blackpink’s Jisoo. Opting for darker bottoms will ensure that you won’t look like a walking banana. Finish the look with a versatile brown tote.

Scroll through Her Private Life (2019) and When the Weather Is Fine (2020) actress Park Min-young‘s Instagram and you’ll find that her style is actually really accessible and easy to emulate. This one, for example, features a comfy cardigan top, a pair of trousers and a purse that can hold your work essentials. A dependable pair of flats will help you ease into the transition back to the office.

Seohyun
image

Singer-actress Seohyun’s style can be described as polished and feminine. Take this monochromatic pink outfit here that plays with varying textures. If fuchsia is too attention-grabbing for you, we recommend going with blush pink instead of a jacket, striped dress, handbag and pumps. Your outfit for Wednesday is settled.
