#MondayMotivation: Your shortcut to looking and feeling like Wonder Woman
In anticipation of the release of Wonder Woman on May 31, here’s some outfit inspo to look and feel like a superhero every day
By Loh Pui Ying -
Being a superhero doesn’t necessarily have to be a dream – it’s all in the state of mind. We hope these Wonder Woman-inspired outfit ideas (think leather, metal, and structure) give you a gentle push to be bold and just be you. Everyone is a superwoman in her own right, no?

Play around with Wonder Woman’s signature colours – we think a soft dusty blue would provide an eye-catching contrast to a crimson red without seeming too jarring. As the jacket sleeves are rather puffy, balance things out by opting for a pair of fitting dark blue pants.

Full shoulders, check. Sash with tie detail, check. Sometimes, all you need to feel like a total #girlboss is a smart jacket with a very defined silhouette. We’re so digging the sash, which is reminiscent of the wide waist belt that was all the rage on the runways of Spring/Summer 2017. Go with a pair of bold red heels to nail your winning outfit combination.

Nothing beats a punchy red top that’s not overly casual, thanks to metal grommets and a tie detail. Pair it with a spiffy leather skirt, but make good use of the asymmetric hemline by leaving the back untucked so it flows like a cape (no harm imagining, amiright?).

To feel like a superhero, you definitely can’t leave out the sparkle. This shimmery top features a V-neck that ups the sexy factor, and the pleated sleeves gel perfectly with some high-waist frilled trousers. We can’t fly like Wonder Woman, but we sure can feel like a million bucks when we strut down the street and the wind ruffles our outfit. As a final flourish to your sleek ensemble, put on a metal choker that’s classy yet screams tough.

Mirror Wonder Woman’s style and stay right on trend by layering a crop top over a crisp white shirt – we love the diagonal strap design of this crop top, which exudes a strong superhero vibe. So there you have it, an oh-so-wearable translation of the spunky character’s corset. Pop on a bold red lippie and you’re all set to conquer the day.

A bold colour is bound to give you a spike in confidence. We teamed this pair with a poplin top that has exaggerated frills from shoulders to waist – way to feeling high and mighty! And of course, don’t leave out Wonder Woman’s wardrobe staple; pull the whole look together with a stylish looped metal cuff.

We just have a penchant for pieces that make us feel extra special. This halter neck top comes with an elegant yet sexy draped open back, and we recommend teaming it with some unique silver culottes for a laidback-meets-futuristic getup. Throw on a pair of black ankle boots and you’re ready to own the day. Go on and shine!

It’s not just the leather skirt that deserves attention when it comes to adding a dose of attitude to your #OOTD. Channel some edgy vibes with a red striped top that’s beautifully balanced with puffy sleeves and a cinched waist, matched with a pair of cropped leather trousers. Undo a few of the side stud fastenings to create a slit and look effortlessly put-together.

Last but not least, here’s a minimalist outfit that’s in no way boring. The dainty pearls on the blue blouse echo the stars on Wonder Woman’s costume, and the party’s at the back – the deep V-neck, crossed straps and lovely lush frills are sure to make heads turn. The sash belt pants are not to be ignored too – they create an extremely defined waist and make your legs look like they go on forever, which we ladies welcome anytime.
