The new look: An off-the-shoulder top
Give your formal-looking shirts a casual (and sultry) spin by unbuttoning the top three buttons and letting it slip off one shoulder. Wear with high-waisted jeans.

The new look: A shirt-under-dress
Another way to style your shirt is to wear it under a dress, preferably something that’s sleeveless, such as slip, spaghetti strap or strapless dresses. This way, your slinky dresses get an instant stylish upgrade and your shirts can still get some air time.

The new look: An elegant top
Give your black blazer a new lease of life by wearing it as a top instead. Wear it on its own with the buttons fastened. Pair with tailored trousers for work.

The new look: The blazer dress
Your long-line blazers can easily work for this look. Cinch your waist with a belt to give the outfit some shape.

The new look: A party-ready dress
Easy and comfortable, summer dresses are definitely a closet staple. However, you don’t have to restrict them to casual brunches on balmy days. These floral printed flowy pieces can easily be elevated for the evenings with accessories. Swap out the strappy sandals for some statement block heels and jewellery. There, you’re good to go.

The new look: A T-shirt dress
If the weekends are your lazy days, but you’re obliged to leave your cozy bed, an easy outfit to throw on is an oversized tee — but wear it as a dress instead. To prevent the get-up from looking sloppy, style up with outerwear and statement accessories.

The new look: Mismatched sleeves
Give the classic tee an interesting twist like Eva Chen by simply rolling up one side of your sleeves and tuck it neatly underneath the shoulder region. Finish off with a pair of high-waisted wide leg trousers and a crossbody bag for that off-duty look.
