You can’t escape the impact of Korea’s pop culture anymore. Whether it’s K-Pop or Korean dramas, or Running Man or Korean beauty brands, K-Style is taking over. And when it comes to K-Fashion, there’s no brand bigger than Stylenanda, the affordable label that started as a blogshop, turned into an own-brand and now has a massive bricks ‘n’ mortar store in the cool Hongik University area of Seoul.
While you can, obviously, shop Stylenanda online via its website at http://en.stylenanda.com/, it’s always been a bit hard to work out the sizes and fit of the various pieces since the great majority of them are “One Size”. Which is why it’s such great news that cool multi-label store i.t. now stocks Stylenanda right here in Singapore at its new boutique in Orchard Gateway!
There are three Stylenanda lines at the new store – Nanda Made (its own creations), KKXX (which is more “streetstyle”) and the Stylenanda beauty brand 3 Concept Eyes (which comes with handy tips on how to get that K-Beauty look).
Here are some of our favourite items from each of the three Stylenanda lines ...
NANDA MADE
Stylenanda
Nanda Made looks include the MWAH Cancan Tweed top and skirt; Lotus
Mesh skirt and top; and Banana print tee and skirt (above from left)
There are three themes this season – “Tenir Salon” which is more
dressy; “The Funky Town” which is fashion-forward; and “Holiday Couture”
which is more casual. We love the Lotus Mesh pencil skirt and midriff
top which has a graphic print and mesh overlay from the Tenir Salon
theme. The fun banana print on the cropped tee and matching jersey skirt
from the Holiday Couture collection might be a bit much all together,
but is perfect for a casual weekend if you split them up.
The cute Stylenanda Nanda Made Star Wars tee
Probably our favourite look though is the MWAH Cancan Tweed top and
matching skirt with lace trim; it’s ladylike but on-trend at the same
time, perfect for Singapore. If you’re a bit of a nerd, however, you’ll
adore the Star Wars tees which are available in oversize and cropped
versions.KKXX
Stylenanda's KKXX label pieces
KKXX is Stylenanda’s “stylistic” line (whatever that means) that
translates into basically black and white graphic pieces with touches of
grey and red; it really all about streetwear influences like oversized
tees worn as dresses, body-con dresses, logo and slogan tees, leggings,
bags, snapback caps, and lots of transparency. We love the Kindly Kitsch
& XOXO skirt with its bit of transparency at the bottom to break up
the black pencil skirt; and the KKXX long tee dress with lace sleeves –
both are great ways to wear the streetwear trend without looking like
you’re trying too hard.3 CONCEPT EYES
Stylenanda's 3 Concept Eyes Eyebrow kit
Stylenanda’s beauty brand was launched in 2009 and based on being
able to create different eye makeup looks from the colours of pink,
orange and beige via the products’ handy instructions that come in the
packaging. Now the brand covers everything from cleansing and body
products to nail varnish and makeup tools and brushes.
Stylenanda's 3 Concept Eyes Glam Cream Eyeshadow
The eye palettes are still the signature products however; we love
amazingly useful 3 Concept Eyes Eye Brow Kit that includes the brand’s
signature cream eyebrow colours – there are two which you can mix and
match so that you get the right colour to go with your hair (a big
K-Beauty “must-do”).
