street style muse: Esther Quek

esther-quek-streetstylemuse-1Esther Quek is my Street Style Muse for today…why? Well, this stylish Singaporean group fashion director at classic menswear magazine The Rake has an innate ability to wear classic menswear elements with grace, elegance & a polished finesse.

I personally love mixing feminine looks with a more androgynous-infused feel and I’m enjoying the whole women in menswear trend…but it’s not just about throwing on a blazer, as Esther Quek quite elegantly demonstrates. She breaks traditional constraints as a style-shaper with exceptional taste. Her looks are totally pulled-together as she confidently combines colour, texture and prints with vibrance and attention to detail. Super chic.esther-quek-streetstylemuse-2

street style muse: Ni’ma Ford

time for another Street Style Muse, don’t you think?

nima-ford7this time it’s the individual style of Ni’ma Ford which grabbed my attention…you’ll remember her unique look which graces the cover of The Sartorialist‘s latest street style photography book, Closer. What is it about her look that I love? Well, for one thing, she an absolute original and is not afraid to show it! She plays with colours & contrasts, modern & vintage, but still keeping it simple and eye-catching. And she can rock a fuscia pink lip like nobody else!nima-ford6 nima-ford5 nima-ford4 nima-ford2nima-ford3 nima-ford

street style muse: Peony Lim

As delicate & beautiful as her flower namesake, Peony Lim is the perfect choice for my Street Style Muse today. With a Chinese and English background, this exotic beauty exudes old-world Hollywood glamour in her elegantly eye-catching ensembles. Peony Lim travels between London and Asia to write her online style diary, work as a consultant and stylist, and find pieces to sell in her online boutique which she launched at the end of 2011. Profiled in top fashion magazines & snapped by streetstyle photographers, Peony captures attention in a subtle and lady-like manner. So inspiring!
