Describe your personal style – I would describe my personal style as bold, sexy and confident. I enjoy following the latest clothing trends especially for dresses and swimwear. I usually prefer darker plain colors with a good cutting. For my daily look, I’m usually in shorts or skirts with a simple tank top or t-shirt. For work, I usually wear slim fit dresses some with floral prints or summer colours. If I’m going for a shoot or casting, I usually just wear a plain coloured tank top with jeans. My night look is usually sexy dresses or jeans and midriff tops, if I’m heading for a night out about town. I also am a huge fan of swimwear and love collecting cute bikinis of different designs for a day at the beach or by the pool!
Look 3: Dress – H&M, Shoes – Nose, Earrings – Forever 21
What do you think about the fashion scene in KL – I think the fashion scene in KL is certainly growing. The hipster trend seems to be very popular among the younger generation now. In my line of work, I do meet a lot of stylish people in the fashion industry and it’s always nice to see how people mix and match their clothes and accessories. I would however, like to see people get a bit more daring with their fashion sense and take risks with more cutting edge styles that you might see in places like L.A. or London. I feel that a lot of people in KL are still in their comfort zones and are not exploring different styles and trends that are taking off in the bigger fashion capitals.

Your favourite place to shop – My favourite places to shop would be Miss Selfridge, Zara and Bebe for sexy dresses. For casual wear, I just love H&M, Topshop and Forever 21. I always manage to find cute midriff tops, skirts and shorts from these places, which are also usually very affordable. I also happen to have a personal fashion collection called Urban Niche which specialises in dresses and swimwear, so, of course, a lot of my own personal clothes are from there. Many of the swimwear in my collection are inspired by Beach Bunny and Triangl Swimwear, which I absolutely adore. For shoes and accessories, I get great stuff from Charles & Keith, Vincci, Guess, Nose, Diva and Lovisa.
