The Season of Happiness and Prosperity is here! We are back again with all our favourite things this Lunar New Year – multiple red packets, an overload of yummy pineapple tarts (among other goodies), hotpot after hotpot with the family, and of course, putting together stellar outfits for that on point OOTD!
As we usher in the ferocious Year of the Tiger, we have assembled some of the brightest, and what we think best suits your individual zodiac animal, Whether you’re a diligent Ox, Energetic Dragon or Caring Pig.
(Heads up) We love a great deal, especially during the festive season – so stay tuned to the end for the latest and best ShopUOB deals!
Presenting: 2022 Chinese New Year Outfits we’ve assembled based on your Zodiac Animal!
If you are a fellow rat (like me), then you probably heard how you can be rather sneaky (considering we made use of the Ox to win the Emperor’s Race). Well turns out, us rats can be pretty intelligent, talkative and ambitious human beings!
Bring about that subtle confidence with the Leah Eyelet Dress from Soon Lee that adds the perfect pop of colour for this festive occasion. We put it together with the Quilted Shoulder Bag from Mango, Watt Robin Heels from Pomelo and 925 Silver Birthstone Huggie Toppers from By Invite Only (Choose the colour based on your Birth Month!)
Those born in the year of the ox are your most trustworthy pals. They are your absolute go-to’s when you need them because of how reliable they can be. Which is why the ideal outfit for an ox, is something that is reliable, easy and effortless – much like the The Texture Resort Dress from Soon Lee in a bright and auspicious red, together with the Tynee Handbag (Caramel) and Brown Lindi Sandals from Pomelo, and By Invite Only’s Gold Marquise Moonstone Studs. Sturdy, comfortable and definitely a reliable outfit.
This year it is all about you! Tiger’s are as confident as they come, and their bravado is seen in admiration by everyone around them. Their Lunar New Year outfit is no different.
This Wrap Dress from Something Borrowed is something only Tiger’s can pull off! Paired with a subtle Gold Love Knot Necklace from By invite Only and staple Dr Marten’s (ZALORA) this outfit is sure to ooze so much confidence, which is no surprise for a Tiger.
Sweet and kind, artistic and refined – these are just some of the delicate characterics of those born in the year of the rabbit. We thought the Sorbet Coloured Skies Rainbow Cheongsam from Le Chic captured the essence of the rabbit, with its sweet colours and delicate design. We paired it with the Ester Heels from Bilini (ZALORA) and a Pink Lorane Bag from Pomelo.
The Mighty Dragons – known for bringing the ‘Huat’ to every party, with their indescribable energy that the people around them cannot get enough of! They need an outfit that represents their energetic personality, which is why these funky pants from Pomelo paired with the ZALORA Basic Square Neck Puffed Sleeved Top makes the bold statement we know a dragon would love.
We put this outfit together with the iconic XS dumpling bag from Beyond The Vines – the perfect size for red packets and mandarin oranges, and the 925 Silver Link Studs from By invite Only.
Those born in the year of the snake are the wisest of us all, but do not mistake them for conservative and shy. They are just as much the life of the party as a dragon, but with an added alluring appeal.
We thought this Printed Short Dress from Mango (ZALORA) would be perfect for them, together with these fun Veja Urca CWL sneakers (ZALORA), classy jewellery from By Invite Only and Goldheart and a Bucket Hat from COS Stores (ZALORA).
People born in the year of the horse are all about living life on their own terms without letting anyone define who they are or what they should be doing.
A statement dress is what these horses need – like this Short Utility Jumpsuit from Beyond The Vines, coupled with chunky New Balance sneakers (ZALORA) and a trusty crochet bag from Mango (ZALORA) to carry all the Lunar New Year essentials, not forgetting a couple of mandarin oranges.
Those born in the year of the goat possess a rather relaxed outlook on life, but could blow your mind with their creativity and intelligence.
The perfect relaxed outfit for goat’s looks something like this – the Pleat Detail V Neck Dress from Beyond The Vines, the Micro Beyond the Vines Dumpling Bag in Red and Cream Galiano Heels from Bilini (ZALORA). A pop of colour in the most subtle way.
Those born in the year of the Monkey are all about ridding off the negative nellies, and solely focusing on the positives – making them great people to be around, especially during the Lunar New Year
Monkey’s deserve an outfit that reflects the light they give off to the people around them! Much like this Yellow Floral Mandarin Collar Dress from Pomelo, together with a classic Kate Spade Crossbody in white (ZALORA), Aeyde Leather Slide Flats (Luisaviaroma) and the K-Style Diamond Bracelet from Goldheart.
Rooster’s are all about adventure! With the pandemic hindering their ability to travel, they find the beauty in other things – maybe even putting together a bright and fun outfit for the New Year.
This bright orange Cotton Dress from Mango (ZALORA) makes for such a statement piece, but roosters will not stop there. We paired this orange dress with a loud purple Crossbody from Kate Spade (ZALORA) and refined jewellery from By Invite Only to really compliment this very bold outfit (Gold Triple Stacking Ring and the Gold Vermeil Speakeasy Necklace.)
If there was anyone you could trust with your life, it would be someone born in the year of the dog. We thought this Sunshine Floral Dress from Le Chic was perfect, together with the 925 Silver Full Cubic Huggies from By Invite Only and Freeya Heels from Pomelo.
Last but not least, let’s give some love to those born in the year of the pig! Selfless and oh so generous individuals that show so much care and concern to the people they love.
Pretty in pink with this gorgeous Frilled Dress from Mango (ZALORA) together with Nanushka Valerie Faux Leather Shoulder bag (Luisaviaroma) for a pop of orange, Rugby Cushioned Sandals from Pomelo and finishing off with the Gold Madeline Moonstone Ring from By Invite Only.
