Yes!!!

is probably the easiest and most convenient answer to give. No, might stump you in your search for reasons later, while saying I don’t know is mainly reserved for the apathetic or those who can’t be bothered.

This question posed by Nuffnang certainly is a hard question to answer (Nuffnang why you give so hard one the question!) and it’s easy to pass quick judgement and crticise. But I will not put down people for crimes i have sometimes been guilty of.

It’s easy to walk about in flip flops; they’re so comfortable and convenient to put on!

But unfortunately or maybe fortunately, they don’t look good with everything.

So here are some simple tips to protect yourself against fashion crimes.

Tip #1 Slippers should be reserved for the beach or going to the market. If walking about in heels the whole day isn’t your cup of tea, choose sneakers or pretty pumps for your casual daily wear.

You never see high fashion models wear slippers in their editorial shoots right?

Another charge I have against fashion crimes is how unadventurous majority of the population is with colour. Colours have a psychological effect on your mood and can thus do some good to enhance your well-being.

Tip #2 Black may be THE colour but it’s summer! Since we live in Singapore where it’s summer perpetually, why not try experimenting with some colour?

Singapore’s no fashion capital but still I do however have to lament on the lack of thought put into dressing. Sad to say, a quick glance around reveals the mindset Singaporeans have towards dressing: they dress for the sake of getting dressed; not because they want to look fashionable or stylish.

I’ll hazard a guess and say that we dress with convenience in mind. As long as a top is covering our body and we have a bottom on, who cares whether they match or not.

Okay okay. I’ve done that myself too, especially on lazy days. Regardless I still make it a point to look somewhat presentable and polished. Here’s how you can do it too.

Tip #3 Playing with layers doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll get heatstroke or have to buy two wardrobes. Layering with accessories, such as necklaces, works too!

Vests are my newest obsession.

The hugest crime one can commit in the name of fashion is to step out in your pajamas.

Regardless of how pretty your PJs are, the sexy little things for the bedroom strictly be kept behind closed doors, if you get what I mean. *winks*

However, I sleep mainly in baggy pants and a comfy tee shirt as most of you would.

But if you REALLY wanna step out in your PJs, here’s how you should do it.

Get a big BLING and a trucker cap, and you’re ready to go! Hahahaha!
