The Fashion Essentials for Your Lazy Days
Bad mornings before work, being dragged out by your bestie that wants your company for a night out, opting for takeout because you’re too lazy to fire up the stove… we’ve all had those lazy days where you just don’t feel like doing anything. Yes, not even dressing up. While it’s totally a-okay to feel like Bruno Mars in his ‘Do Nothing’ song, that doesn’t mean can’t switch it up!

Do not underestimate the power of accessories, they really can bring your casual look to the next level! Whether it’s in a bag, a statement necklace or a scarf, accessories are an absolute essential. What’s even better is that they’re so easy to pull off. This way, you can keep your outfit really simple, and let your favourite accessory do the talking.

While technically any outerwear fits into this category, we picked kimono because it’s especially fitting in our hot and humid country! It’s light, easy to carry around and super versatile. There’s so many designs now - from the printed to the plain - you’ll definitely be spoilt for choice. If that’s not up your alley, a simple cardigan will do the trick.

Not necessarily prints like florals or polka dots; details such as asymmetrics, ripped or badges are becoming must-have items in your closet. They’re a great alternative to your usual tank tops and jeans. Whether you want your details to be in your tops, bottoms or accessories, so long as you stay true to your style. They’ll definitely turn heads!

One of the easiest ways for a quick dress-me-up would be adding that pop of colour to your outfit! The best thing is, that pop of brightness can be in the form of anything. It could be your bag, a belt, your top or even your shoes. To pull this off, just wear a monochrome mix and then add that splash of colour.

Yes, shoes are more than an essential, but I’m talking about the ones besides your flats and heels. Get a statement shoe, such as platform boots or classic slip ons, and watch your outfit completely transform. Of course, you can always wear your usual comfy shoes, but bring on the fancy shoes when you’re in need of something extra!
