This Taiwanese-Italian model cum TV presenter left Taiwan for Japan, before eventually settling in Singapore with beau and fellow TV personality, Henry Golding.

The self-confessed yogi considers yoga a lifestyle, and even created a website called Stretch City, for all things yoga-related.

When Lo is not twisted into a pretty pretzel in yummy yoga outfits, she’s slaying emsembles reflective of the yogic lifestyle. Think simple and clean silhouettes, with a pop of colour.

If you want to channel Lo’s easy-breezy style, a simple sundress and comfy sneakers is all you need. For a dash of personality, throw on your favourite choker, bag pack, or any accessory that makes a statement against your casual outfit.

Her style is a classic femininity with an edgy twist. Here, she amps up the classic white t-shirt and jeans look by wearing a long, slitted top with jeans. She also sports her favourite Dior bag as a statement accessory and white pumps for a clean and modern look.

Caunter also rocks maternity chic in her staple of form fitting midi dresses or flowy maxi dresses. She pairs them with strappy or gladiator sandals for a comfy and stylish look!

You know you’ve made it when you only go by your first name. Cher, Madonna, Beyonce, and now Malaysia’s favourite singer, Yuna.

Before she became a world-renowned singer, she auditioned for the singing competition, One in a Million, and only made it to the top 40 before getting eliminated.

She was eventually discovered in the US by Indie-Pop Music, got signed, and the rest as they say, is history.

As a Muslimah, Yuna holds firm to her faith and headscarf, proving that you can look fashionable without compromising your beliefs.

Her street-inspired style is softened with boho-chic and sporty pieces. Take a cue from Yuna, and pair a sporty jacket with a feminine blouse or tank top to add fun points to your look. If you’re new at layering, try a light scarf or stack 2 or 3 necklaces of different lengths.
