ZALORA x American Apparel: The Simple & Wild Things

Now if you haven't already heard, American Apparel is in Singapore! An immensely popular brand in America, its is best known for making basic, solid-color cotton knitwear such as T-shirts and underwear. Not just stopping at that, the brand has also began including more apparel choices as well as leggings, leotards, nail polish, bedding and fashion accessories to meet the demands of its fashion-forward fans.   

Given the fashion climate of Singaporeans, I daresay that most of us would still stick to the safe fashion choices that gives greater mileage. And although American Apparel is known for its "90's iconic style", rest assured that you won't be finding clothes that look like a rerun of Beverly Hills 90210. Infact, I was delighted to find some versatile picks that great for eveyday wear.

This is so passe, I can't even...

First up, this set is one that is made up of simple clean lines. I love this Hampton Short, which has a classical pinstripe pattern in navy..tres french chic. Made from textured seersucker material, means there is no need to iron it, and the pleats in the front makes it interesting. For the top, stay comfy in this Spandex Jersey Sleeveless Turtleneck Crop Top and finish the look with this Flat Lattice Jelly Sandal in Black. 

If the simple look above isn't really your thing, then its time to jazz things up abit. Here the staple piece is this Leopard Print Jersey Crop Tee, because animal prints always add that easy wild factor (terrible pun I did there...I'm the worst!). For day, I pair this with a Petite High Waist Jeans in a faded blue hue tone the look down. For a party night out, switch things up with this gold, figure-hugging Shiny Late Night Mini Skirt and showcase those killer gams and fancy footwear!

I think the great thing about fashion is that we can redefine it to our own individualistic styles. Here, I get creative with this Denim Fanny Pack, in a dark grey grain. One can either sling it over the shoulders as a casual handbag for the day, whereas hands are kept free for drinks and fancy dance moves by simply securing it around the waist, in the evening look.

With more than 100 offerings in store now, there are just one of many stylish combinations to look forward to. Shop American Apparel on Zalora and recreate your own favourite looks today!
