Trends come and go, but some stick around for a while, such as the Work from Home look.
Forget wearing casuals and try some new styles that are both comfortable and appropriate for online meetings and calls.
Being in style is always great, whether it’s at the office or at home. Naveen Mahlawat, co-founder of StalkBae.com, a fashion e-commerce site owned by MadBow Ventures Ltd, offers some new style advice for working from home:
The black and white top
This timeless combination never goes out of style. A black and white shirt teamed with a black trouser or skirt creates the perfect style, whether it’s at your office desk or in your favourite chair at home.
Olive Green
What better way to show off your professional yet trendy side than with an olive-green full-sleeves top? In a Zoom meeting or during a virtual chat with your client, the all-time favourite olive colour is great to capture eyes.
Classy Cargo trousers
Old is gold, and Cargo tracks are the most comfortable and easiest to style. Pair them with sweaters or sweatshirts for a full day in front of the computer.
The Shirt dress
For your virtual presentations on your office project, the shirt dress gives you a formal yet trendy look. The blue shirt seems comfortable enough to wear all day, but it also gives the impression that you didn’t just get out of bed.
Checkered Blue Skirt
Match your favourite sleeveless tops with the lovely knotted checkered blue skirt for a stylish look for your long day at work. With this outfit, you may show your eccentric side while yet maintaining a professional demeanour at work.

Curate Your Creative Hub with the work from home edit
Home is where the heart is, but for many of us, it is also where we work these days.
Working from home is an art form that requires focus and a lack of distractions. Add flair to your work vistas with handcrafted decor elements, whether you’re working 9 to 5 or on a creative project. Take a look at our WFH edit, which includes items that aren’t only for the office.
Is a regular study table too formulaic for you? Pick a console, it accentuates the hallways, adds a style element to bedrooms, and is a good landing spot for your laptop and coffee.
A Lapdesk is key when you want to keep your laptop from overheating on you, and your back scrunching in uncomfortable positions. It can also double as breakfast in bed trays for the weekend!

If you haven’t yet experimented with indoor plants, your home office is the place to start. So pick yourself up a fiddle-leaf fig, a maidenhair fern, or a hoya, plant it in our striking planters and breathe easier.
A comfortable chair beside a balcony can also be a productivity hub. A good chair is comfortable, adjustable, and easy to manoeuver.
Light can greatly affect your mood, it’s important to be able to control it in a way that keeps you alert at certain times and more relaxed at others. To achieve such a scheme, flank your desk with a table lamp for visual order, then add a pendant light or two for a softer glow.
