Anyeong Noona

 

Noona would like to vote for red coat to exist in any woman’s wardrobe because after all red is such a flattering color. The red coat from Korean fashion label, Tint Rose, costs USD 285 on its website (www.tintrose.com) and it is one of the most popular item amongst the the label’s creations. Noona supposes its popularity was boosted somehow by the drama, Black Knight. If you are, however staying in a tropical country where it’s forever summer here, Noona thinks you can still work the look but substitute the thick coat with blazer instead. Now if only, we can find similar color for the blazer...

 

In the spirit of lunar new year, Noona thinks that red color will work as well as maroon to be pair with that classy black Celine Trotteur bag. How about pairing the red double breasted blazer (is that a typo there?) from River Island with it? The red blazer costs 89.90 SGD. 

 

Alternatively, Mango also has a similar blazer at less scorching red tone. And to make it even better, the Ruched Sleeves Blazer from Mango is currently on sale from the initial price of SGD 119 to SGD 72.90. Not exactly cheap but at least it’s not in the hundreds. 

How to get her look:

Noona asked her the LINE Friends group to go source for the necessary items required to re-create Hani's style. Let's see what did they find out. 

Choco's choice:  Coach's Tour Dress in Houndstooth, $64.99 from Modcloth

Sally's choice: People tree organic fairtrade cotton shirt dress in check, $121.31 from Asos

Cony's choice: Check pinafore dress, $61 from Topshop

All of the girls' picks look great. While Choco, Sally and Cony are busy looking for dress, Noona asked the boys, Brown and Moon to look for the shoes. Let's see how well the boys fare, shall we?

Brown's choice: Keds Champions perforated sneakers, $84.11 from Asos

Moon's choice: Vagabond Kenova oxford, $49.99 from Urban Outfitters

Let's have fun this summer, peeps.

The key fashion items:

1. Flag intarsia sweater, now $347.50 (originally $695)

The pullover sweater does look pretty cozy and stylish. Perfect for piling on every day in any way.

2. Inverted pleat skirt, now $197.50 (originally $395)

It is a pleat skirt and hence, it makes the wearer look stylishly preppy. The swingy, above-the-knee skirt is made for ease of movement. The center-back zip is invisible and there are belt loops if you want to accessorize your skirt. 

3. Zip moto boot, now $299 (originally $595)

The chic boot does look cool and tough. Perfect to make it a statement piece for your #ootd moment. If you are into biker chic style, the moto boot does make a good addition to your wardrobe.

4. Swagger 20 in pebble leather, $350 (no sale, sad)

The Swagger 20 is the IT line from Coach at the moment. The petite size is just big enough to hold our small wallet and smartphone. I suggest don't bring too many stuff if you want to swing this bag with you. 

Pictorial shoot aside, Coach Swagger Bag is actually a pretty cute slingbag. The backstage photoshoot of Victoria in one of Coach's events shows that the bag can be paired together with a cute dress.  It seems that the bag will be a nice pair to an edgy style too. Noona is imagining biker jacket somehow. 

The size of the bag is also mini enough to be called trendy. Well, all the mini bags are making a come back this year after all. This Coach Swagger 20 with Chain in Pebble Leather costs USD530.

Reviews said that the bag is beautiful and the leather feels so soft. Although it looks small, you can actually put a lot of stuff in the bag but obviously that will make the bag heavy.
