What does fashion mean to you?
Fashion is how you express your individual style through wearing different clothes and accessories.
How would you describe your personal style?
My personal style defines my personality. I’m a simple person that’s why I usually wear simple clothes such as black tops and white bottoms or vice versa. Sometimes I mix and match my clothes depending on my mood. I also make sure my hair is never out of style. I make sure to add a few striking accents to it.
Your favorite place to shop in Macau?
One of my favorite places to shop in Macau is H&M in the Galaxy Hotel. They always have a great range of stylish and good quality pieces and most of the time it’s at an affordable price.
What is your view on Macau’s fashion scene, do we have one?
I think Macau’s fashion scene doesn’t have a specific style or scene. Based on my observations, people in Macau dress rather randomly depending on their fashion sense.
How can Macau inspire the way you dress?
Macau inspires the way I dress as there are so many affordable places to shop that sells good quality clothes. Macau also inspires the way I dress as there are so many beautiful places to take pictures that help express my personal style.
What would be an ideal weekend in Macau?
An ideal weekend in Macau would include spending quality time with my family and friends at Hac Sa beach. It’s the perfect place to bond and take pictures with them because it’s so peaceful and relaxing.
What’s your favorite place in Macau to take photos?
There are many beautiful places to take photos in Macau but one of my favorite places is in Macau Fisherman’s Wharf. Going there is like going to a different country.
Who takes photos of your outfits?
Most of the time my very supportive mother is the one who takes photos of my outfits but sometimes when she’s not free, I go out with my friend Nicole who also loves to take pictures and express her fashion style.
What’s your fashion motto?
Style yourself confidently, this way you express yourself without having to say anything. Don’t ever worry about what others might say.
