Regardless of how perfect your styling is, insisting in one specific style can make you look boring. Korean celebrities are well-known for doing the casual and feminine style perfectly; it’s a favourite look of actresses like So Yi Hyun, Kim Yoon Hye, Lee Yoon Ji, Chae Jung Ahn and K-Pop stars like Jessica of Girls’ Generation.
Still, if you stick to your regular recipe of pastel colours, lace or other soft fabrics and “cute” touches to casual shorts and tees combinations, you’ll end up always looking the same.
Take your cue from these Korean celebrities and update your casual and feminine style so that it’s always fresh.
CASUAL STYLE
Actress So Yi Hyun wore a mix-match style with a blue blouse and a flared skirt with a chain shoulder bag to make her look a little more stylish. On the other hand, Jessica of Girls’ Generation wore a pair of washed-out denim jeans with a detailed white lace blouse and pink high-top sneakers for casual feminine look. Actress Kim Yoon Hye created a comfortable yet stylish look with a unique mix of colours and materials; she matched a purple baseball jacket and a mini skirt with a pair of white sneakers.
FEMININE STYLE
If you want to maximise your feminine style, try using details such as pleats, lace, and flower prints. For instance, actress Chae Jung Ahn matched a nude pleated skirt with a pair of sneakers, creating stylish mix-match look. On the other hand, actress Koo Hye Sun maximised her femininity with flower patterned dress and a pair of open toe heels. Actress Lee Yoon Ji added ribbon and lace details over a white sleeveless dress, presenting a more innocent feminine look.
