I'm spending a week in Singapore with my son and his girlfriend, who are returning from a semester studying in Miri, Malaysia. It's so lovely to see them!
Singapore street style seems in keeping with Singapore's orderly, modern vibe. I'd describe it as modest, neutral colours, semi-fitted to loose fitting, and everyone is impeccably groomed, even in the heat and high humidity.
I'm really happy with what I packed for the week: 2 stretch denim skirts, one wide leg cotton pants, 5 loose linen tops, cotton camis, one pair of sneakers and one pair of sandals, a cross-body bag and of course, a hat and sun-glasses. I used the hotel laundry service the first 2 days so this has been plenty!
Here are some WIWs in front of some of the colourful older buildings, and the beautiful Sarong Kebaya that some women still wear and on which the Singapore Airline steward uniform is based. The skirt is typically batik, and the semi-fitted blouse is typically held closed by 3 brooches connected with a chain - so beautiful!
