The words, “end season sale,” are like glorious music to our ears. Finally, we can snag those outfits we’ve been eyeing for months but never quite had the budget to buy before.
Well, it’s that time of the year, and you’ll find brands like ZARA, Pull&Bear, Bershka, Massimo Dutti, Stradivarius and OYSHO with discounts of up to 50% off on their Spring/Summer 2019 collection from now till 31st July 2019.
Here are some looks inspired by the summer season to covet while you’re browsing those clothes racks:
Nothing screams “SUMMER HOLIDAY!” louder than a sunny yellow dress complete with polka dots. And there’s nothing wrong with being bold about it; after all, you have every right to express your excitement for a holiday.
This ensemble from ZARA comprises a crop top and matching flowy skirt for a dressy yet comfortable day out in the heat, perfect for a shopping trip in Bangkok.

Summer’s the time for festivals and parties that embrace the warm weather. Although we’re used to the heat here in Singapore, that doesn’t mean we can’t join in the fun as well.
This two-piece lemon motif set from Pull&Bear is made of a light and airy fabric that’s festival-friendly. Complement the look with teal-coloured accessories on the neck and waist. Belt bags are back in fashion too, for hands-free convenience!

Not everyone has to chiong the heck out of the summer holidays, and if you just want to have some R&R at home, it doesn’t mean you can’t do it in style.
This casual outfit from Stradivarius is perfect for a quiet hangout session at home with your BFFs. Complement the heat with a light crochet blouse and denim shorts, and accessorise with a seashell belt for a subtle hint of beach vibes.

For those who prefer something a little more modest, this chic outfit from Massimo Dutti is formal yet comfortable enough for a day at the office. This earthy-toned blouse is made of lightweight fabric, and can be contrasted with a white wrap skirt. Pair these with woven mules and you’ll get a relaxed, elegant look.
