Some may think guys have it easy – stock up on a few basic tees, coupled with some vintage jeans and you’re all set for wardrobe for the rest of the week. Little did you know there’s so much more to explore clothing-wise, from preppy prints to achieving that sk8erboi aesthetic without digging much into your wallet.
These five charming local personalities show exactly how it should be done, so watch and learn boys!
1. @lesliepng
Often a fan of practical pieces, Leslie spouts a penchant for minimalist designs through solid colours and classic silhouettes. Drawing the audience’s gaze with clever accessory placements from clean timepieces to basic sunnies, he then completes the frame with an effortless good-natured chuckle for a natural approach.
2. @flamingpeanut
The (almost) perfect epitome of a Hipster Melayu, there’s a delightful sense of casual goofiness in every shot that makes it hard not to giggle at (in a good way). Be it his hilarious tongue-in-chic captions or almost-too-real expressions, scrolling through his Instagram feed guarantees to be an interesting affair for the viewer.
3. @thatborneoguy
Flaunting off a charmingly quirky persona at first sight, That Borneo Guy’s probably the first person to be noticed in a pack of crowd. Ain’t holding back when it comes to bold designs, he is truly a fashion chameleon when it comes to working both practical and experimental ensembles on a daily basis.
4. @wndr_dnvr
A projection of the minimalist lifestyle, wndr_dnvr occasionally injects a generous dosage of popping tones into his OOTD. When he does so, you’d notice it with immediate effect – think neon orange shorts and electric blue trousers. On other days, he’s happy to kick back and relax in a casual collection of whites, greys and blacks (or what we’d love to call, 50 Shades of Monochrome).
5. @andreamir
An obvious fan for sunglasses, we can’t help but to agree on his impeccable and at times eccentric approach to casual styling. Occasionally incorporating layers into his ensemble with dapper bombers and homely sweatshirts, Andrea is sure to bring the heat up a notch to the streets with his seemingly effortless pairings.
