From luxurious, arty hotels to feminine, floaty dresses, here are all the must-get buys the Female team is into this month.
“This floaty, sheer dress is all I need to brave the hottest of months – plus the ruffles add texture and movement.” – Sofia Kim Marisa, writer
“The Louis Vuitton monogram at the back of the heel elevates this from basic boot to luxe classic. Coupled with a simple but well-made design, it makes a ‘trend-proof’ shoe that goes with any outfit.”- Lydia Teo, editorial intern
“The one makeup product to get for the season: this gold mine of twelve new velvety shadows that come in every texture from matte to shimmer, satin and sparkle. With it, you can create a vast variety
of opulent looks.” – Moh Shuying, beauty editor
“These tinted shades – I especially love the red accented triangles that give it a quirky edge – up the fun factor of any casual outfit.” – Adeline Eng, senior designer
“Consuelo Castiglioni’s forward- thinking and artist-inspired ways have always resonated with me. This season (her last for the brand), she superimposed the works of Dutch artist van Beek onto the brand’s S/S ’17 print designs. My favourite: this eye-catching tote.” – Chris Ong Ujine, associate editor
“If I get to visit Cape Town, this newly opened 28-room hotel is my choice pick to stay at. It sits atop the soon-to-open Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (MOCAA), has Art Deco window bays, and views of the famous Table Mountain. Art plus architecture plus scenery = love.” – Keng Yang Shuen, fashion writer
