This week has been an awesome one for our Clozetters! We just couldn't decide which OOTDs were worth featuring because the Fashion Community has been posting a lot of good ones over the past week. We spotted classy, fresh, glam and floral!

Without further ado, Here are our top faves for the week!

This look from axeldwen puts the word "glam" in the street fashion scene. This look featured a play on length with the combination of a crop top and a knee-length skirt. Another thing we loved about this look: the shoes! Your shoes can make or break your outfit and this black, strappy pair finished it off perfectly.

Cat_jiajia

This look from Cat_jiajia is a fresh take on the white-on-white look. The braided hair, the glam necklace, and the Oxford shoes with socks are such cute outfit add-ons that bring a fun and trendy vibe to the look. What we love most is the pair of wide-leg culottes, which is a new trend for this year. So we give this a two thumbs up!

AnicoHannaMG

AnicoHannahMG got us loving black all over again with her cut-out dress, sling clutch bag, and floppy hat. One detail we especially love is how the shoes and the cut-out pattern of the dress effortlessly match each other while still being different enough to stand out. Definitely picture-perfect!

christyfrisbee

Who said glasses can't be chic? We love this effortless pairing of the glasses with a floral midi-skirt and chunky black sandals. This OOTD from christyfrisbee combines edgy, feminine, and geeky in this all-in-one look without going overboard.

DebbieFermin

DebbieFermin's OOTD looks glam and laid-back at the same time. The crop top and skirt ensemble never ceases to fail, making it a great outfit-of-choice for casual days. We're also loving how the natural and "sweet as candy" colours of her clothes flatter her skin and hair perfectly.

Keeping It Boho-Chic With Bershka

3 Looks from Bershka's seventies-inspired collection

If there's one era we'd like to go back to, it would be the seventies. It was a time of carefree, eclectic, gypsy, and bohemian looks we have all grown to love today. This year, Bershka has introduced that era again in their Spring/Summer Collection. Dresses, flowy blouses, fringe, ethnic prints, hats, and light fabrics are definitely back in style this 2015!

We got a preview of their collection and styled some pieces together for you to try! Here are our top 3 looks.

--------------------------

If you're looking to make a boho-chic statement, then this fringed kimono poncho is the item for you. Pair it with high-waisted denim shorts, a burgundy hat, and nude booties for that casual, flowy ensemble great for summer music festivals or just a day in the park with your friends.

If you think bohemian looks are sloppy, you're wrong. It's all about accessorizing. What really pulls this look together is the addition of the metallic necklace, bringing a statement detail to an otherwise loose, flowy silhouette. This look will be great for cafe dates with friends, paired with black boots or oxfords.

The loose white blouse and distressed boyfriend jeans paired with glam dangling earrings and black booties is a classic way to pull-off a modern, bohemian look. It captures the free-spirit of the trend while still adding a touch of the modern-casual--definitely a great alternative to the usual T-shirt and jeans ensemble,

So which style was your favourite? Let us know in the comment box below!

Mastering Minimalist Jewellery

How to wear minimalist jewellery in your outfit

By Cassandra Tan on 23 Jan, 2015
Ambassador Insider Jan '15

I love how minimalist jewellery is able to add a breath of life to everyday outfits. These accessories can easily be found in most retail stores such as H&M, Forever 21, Lovisa or even the highly popular China shopping site - Taobao at affordable prices!

Here are some ideas on how to experiment with these jewellery and incorporate them in your everyday look!

--------------------------

Necklaces

Necklaces from Taobao

Layered necklaces are in trend right now since they're so versatile and effortless. These necklaces from Taobao are sold as a set and you can wear them with a plain tee or a laid-back white shirt to let the necklace shine on its own.

Midi Rings

Midi Rings from Forever21

Midi rings are best worn when stacked together. These accessories can add the finishing touches to any look, from casual to formal wear.

Charm Bracelets

Charm Bracelets from Time After Time

Wear your heart on your sleeve and in this case, even on your wrists! Since Valentine's Day is just around the corner, a charm bracelet featuring the letter of a loved one can be a sweet way to show your significant other how you're always thinking about them too!

Earrings

Earrings from Taobao

Regardless if they come in dangle or studs, minimalist earrings are all about the little details. The best part is that you can wear them however you like no matter what outfit you may have on!

Hair Accessories

Hair Clip from Taobao

For someone like me who doesn't have the perfect hair parting to rock tribal head pieces, I choose to go for minimalist-looking hair pins to add a touch of detail to my hair. You can wear them with a side braid or even a messy bun to complete the look.
