Red T-shirt and white shorts for the NDP? That’s predictable. If you’re looking to head to the parade or celebrate the nation’s birthday in your best red-and-white style, here are some chic looks from local celebs to give you some inspiration. From Zoe Tay‘s playful maxi dress to Sonia Chew’s chic sporty vibe, here are some ways you can look your best come Aug 9.
There’s no going wrong with a breezy maxi dress like Zoe Tay’s cute polka-dotted number (that’s great for brunch, too), with a bright red lippy to match. Sneakers add a laidback vibe.
Not into the whole red-and-white combo? Try a warmer burgundy and camel look. And if you’re more the sporty type, take your cue from Sonia Chew’s athleisure-chic look, plus a cap to shield you from the blazing sun.
A cropped tank top is the perfect hot-weather staple, while a flowy wrap skirt keeps things effortlessly polished. Even better if your outfit has motifs of our Singapore flag — like Rebecca’s star-printed skirt.
Overalls are great for fast, fuss-free dressing. All you need is a tank top or T-shirt and you’re all set to celebrate NDP in effortlessly laidback style. Plus, it allows for ease of movement, too. We love Hazelle Teo’s fit in a mood-boosting hue.
For a more subdued approach to wearing our national colours, we’re looking to Jesseca Liu’s chic checkered jumpsuit with hints of red. We’d swap out the long-sleeved, high-neck top for a T-shirt or tank top to withstand the outdoor heat at the Padang.
Hazelle Teo combined a cute paisley print halter with white pants for an outfit that’ll have you looking hot while staying cool.
Reference Jeanette Aw’s stylish (and totally hot weather-appropriate) outfit by rocking to the parade in a breezy white dress that’s perfect for the warm weather. Look for added details like puff sleeves or gathers to up the look, and a chic red bag for the perfect cherry on top.
Yes, you can still layer without feeling the heat. Think lightweight fabric and loose silhouettes. Here, Jade Seah went red-on-red with a cute midi skirt and an oversized shirt, then broke it up with a black sports bra. Comfy sandals rounded up her look.
We are crazy over how cute Yvonne Lim looks here with her mini-me daughter! Have a little bit of mummy-and-me fun this NDP by dressing your kids in pieces that match your own. Plus, it’ll make spotting them easier amidst crowds watching the parade.
