Stylo-Milo Sunday!!!

Nabilah

- Of colours, shirts-turned-skirts, and her almost eclectic dress sense.

What defines your personal style?

I live by four words: Shoot from the hip. Simple pieces make up the basic, but I will add a dash of colour or wear an accessory in a new way to make the outfit more unique. For example, I’d wear a men’s shirt like a skirt, or wear a vest the wrong way round, that kind of thing.

I like mismatched colours, mixing prints and I steal very liberally from my mom and my brother’s wardrobes to supplement what I think is a modest selection of clothes.

And it seems like menswear has a space in Nabilah’s wardrobe too!

I also love shopping in the men’s department: their hats, socks and ties tend to appeal to me more than women’s ones sometimes (plus I’m way bigger than the average Singaporean girl)

Favourite pick of this year? Chunky rings! Seems to be an obsession for me this year but I feel weird if I leave home without one on my finger.

Style to me is…

My rings, Ray-Ban Wayfarers (Did you know that Ray-Ban was founded by Bausch & Lomb?  I just learnt that!) and my very-broken-in topshop canvas shoes. It’s comfortable, I can pull it off, and I feel just like myself in it. Works for the scorching weather in Singapore too!
