If Covid-19 put a damper on your travel plans, here’s the silver lining: sometimes the best vacations are the ones that are closest to home.

Consider nursing your travel bug by rediscovering parts of Singapore you haven’t ventured to and booking a stay at a local hotel or Airbnb for a change of scenery.

Of course, don’t forget about your staycation outfits. Half the fun’s in packing and planning what to wear for each staycation occasion, right? Ahead, we’ve rounded up some of the most stylish staycay outfits seen on local celebs to inspire your much-needed socially distanced time off. You’re welcome.

This season is all about thinking outside the box! Fashion girls including radio jockey Sonia Chew have been filling their Instagram feeds with fits featuring scarves tied across their chests.

If you are worried that your scarf will unravel as you go about your day, considering wearing a bandeau bra or strapless bikini underneath. For lounging by the pool, we recommend pairing your scarf top with some slouchy linen trousers or easy-breezy cotton shorts.

She stayed at: The Capitol Kempinski Hotel Singapore

Celebrity mum Fann Wong is keeping her style game strong even on her off-hours. In this photo, she is wearing a plissé (micro-pleated) dress. Inspired by the 50s, a pleated dress in a floaty fabric and cinched waist is flattering on all body types.

The crinkled effect also hides any wrinkles, so you can always look fresh and put-together even if you just pulled the dress out of your weekend bag. Fann matched her pleated midi with comfortable yet chic espadrille sandals.

6. Fiona Fussi: Green gingham mini skirt

Casual and comfy, yet totally stylish, a drawstring cotton short is perfect for both WFH days and staycays. These itty-bitty loose shorts are also great as a cover-up if you’re lazing by the pool. Hanli paired her drawstring shorts with a fitted basic white tube top.

Your fave pale purple shade from the 90s is back with a vengeance. The trick to pulling off a colour like lilac is to opt for modern silhouettes.

For example, How Are You 2 star Denise Camillia’s purple ruched bodycon dress makes for an easy weekend staycay outfit.

She stayed at: Hilton Singapore

Floral dresses are just so fun. While they can be worn on any occasion, there’s no better time to embrace joy-sparking floral dresses than staycations. As a rule of thumb, avoid slouchy bags as they give off a more hippie vibe. Instead, pick a bag that is more boxy and structured like what actress Tay Ying did here.
