My Reading Room
GINETTE CHITTICK

Fashion lecturer, DJ and fashion designer.

“Where I work, we’re pretty liberal with the term ‘workwear’, but I always make sure that I’m comfortable because I don’t want to be adjusting my clothes when I should be concentrating. A bright orange or red lip is a great pick-me-up, and I also trust my white sneakers to help make me look less serious.”

MAY YIP

Director of PR and content marketing firm Bolt Industries.

“I go for investment pieces that are timeless, mixed up with more seasonal accessories, like an immaculately-cut blazer. I do also like to exude a hint of creativity, which might come through in an architectural cut or beautifully- crafted jewellery.”
