While most women would opt for a more traditional look during the CNY festivities, sometimes a cheongsam might suit your tastes.

So in the mood of CNY and with all things yummy and comfortable in mind, we've come up with 5 outfit options that you can wear this year that doesn't involve a cheongsam. Each of these looks will keep you feeling comfortable, and they won't raise an eyebrow with the older folk.
