Steal her style with these tips:
Embrace your heritage
Just like Neetasha Singh, incorporate elements of your cultural heritage into your wardrobe.
This could mean wearing traditional fabrics, jewellery, or prints in a modern fashion, such as pairing a statement ethnic piece with contemporary clothing.
Invest in timeless pieces
Quality over quantity is key. Invest in classic, well-made pieces like a tailored blazer, a little black dress or a pair of perfectly fitted jeans.
These staples can be mixed and matched for various looks.
Statement accessories
Don’t underestimate the power of accessories.
A bold necklace, a pair of statement earrings, or a luxurious scarf can transform a simple outfit into something extraordinary.
Balance is key
If you’re wearing something bold or heavily detailed on top, keep the bottom simple, and vice versa.
This creates a balanced look and lets each piece shine.
Experiment with textures
Mix and match different textures, like pairing a silk blouse with a leather skirt, or a chunky knit sweater with a satin midi skirt.
This adds depth and interest to your outfit.
Tailoring is essential
Make sure your clothes fit perfectly.
A well-tailored outfit will always look more polished. If off-the-rack items don’t fit right, don’t hesitate to take them to a tailor.
Personalise your look
Add personal touches to your outfits that reflect your unique style, whether it’s a signature colour, a favourite type of jewellery or a specific way you like to wear your hair.
Confidence is key
The most important accessory you can wear is confidence.
Whatever you choose to wear, wear it with pride and self-assurance. It will elevate your entire look.
Remember, style is all about expressing who you are, so have fun with it!
