Describe your personal style – I buy individual pieces in really monochromatic colours, but I’m a total, total sucker for anything mesh, floral, chiffon, lace, leather and velvet. Colours often clash with my hair haha! I’d literally go into a store, pick out a floppy hat, or a pair of chunky boots or neon necklaces and somehow it always goes with what I wear. It’s funny in that way but I’d like to think I’m constantly versatile and coordinated. That’s probably the only way I could describe my style.

Your thoughts on the fashion scene in KL – I think the fashion scene in KL is really up and coming. It’s hard to style clothes in a really warm country when all you want to do is wear flip flops and a cami top, but it’s really lovely to see how people take time out of their day to figure out what personality they want to present to the world that day. With all the fabrics and colours and print you really can just be anything you want!

Your favourite places to shop – For clothes, in order of what I love, River Island, Urban Outfitters (although the prices are atrocious), H&M, Forever 21, Bershka and Primark (if you are ever in the UK, thank me in advance for this). I usually thrift at Rokit and Spaceship cause you can get really wonderful vintage pieces!
