Get Your Kicks

For Jeneen, part of being confident is knowing you’re comfortable, and what better way to nail that than in comfy kicks. "A good pair of sneakers go with most outfits and I especially like how unexpected sneakers can be for a party!"

Earrings, $14.95, from H&M. Jacket,$740; and pants, $480, both from Maje. Bodysuit from Eres. Bracelet, $429, from Atelier Swarovski. Bag, $63.90, from Charles & Keith.

Small Wonders

When it comes to your bag, smaller is better, says Jeneen, especially during the party season. “I think mini bags lend a chic factor to your look. It also forces you to carry less and pack only what you need, which appeals to the practical side of me!”

I’d say my style is pretty adventurous. I love mixing unexpected pieces – like wearing sneakers with a dress

Drop Dead Gorgeous

Have somewhere to be, but don’t have the right clothes? Jeneen suggests you use earrings as a look-changer. “The right pair of earrings will complete your get-up,” she shares. “A pair of statement drop earrings can instantly give you a dose of confidence without having to change your outfit.”

As a modern-day boss, Jeneen Goh is always on the move. “I run a digital marketing agency called 21 Stories,” she explains. “We specialise in social media marketing, and help brands build their presence and grow their businesses online. Running the business and managing my team keep me busy every day!” Because she doesn’t have the luxury of spending hours getting dressed, Jeneen relies on a selection of accessories to get her glammed up in seconds. She spills the pearls here.

Describe your style.

“I’d say that my style is pretty adventurous. I like pieces with bold details, be it interesting sleeves or exaggerated ruffles. I also love mixing unexpected pieces like wearing sneakers with a dress.”

What’s an item in your closet you cannot live without?

“A good pair of boyfriend jeans. They go with everything!”

What’s your best purchase in recent months?

“Oh my, I’ve bought so many good purchases recently! If I had to choose one, I’d go with my white Oasis sandals from Hermes. They’re so comfortable and versatile.”  

What are your must-have pieces in life?

“A statement handbag to complete your look, the right pair of shoes to switch up an outfit, and a pair of statement earrings for that instant dose of confidence.”
