SHENTONISTA

“My wardrobe staple: a little black dress, as well as a really good pair of vintage Levi’s.”

“My motto in life: nothing’s embarrassing if you’re not embarrassed by it.”

Usually made of a light cotton or silk, a printed skirt or pants are great for a humid, muggy day, and, depending how you wear them, can go from workday to weekend with ease.

“One lesson I’ve taken away from my years of work is that relationships are important, and that I have to be nice to everyone.”

“I never did art as a kid and my background is in film, but I just started building more things over the years.”

“When I was a teenager, my style was influenced by hip hop, and when I studied in university, it evolved to a fusion of a cowboy style with rock & roll influences. Now I try to dress minimally.”

“I always strive for excellence and try to have a good work ethic—it might not always be noticed but you’ll definitely feel an immense sense of pride and accomplishment for a commitment that you spend more than 70% of your life on.”

“I’m more of a people person, so if I weren't a media planner, I’d probably work in the food & beverage industry or in public relations where it’s more interactive.”

I’d tell my younger self: follow your passion, try new things, and take risks.

Less structured, a casual blazer or jacket comes with less rules as well.

“I’m looking forward to Epizode, a music festival that’s taking place in Vietnam. I don't think I have the energy and endurance to go for all 11 days of non-stop partying so I’ll just go for some of them.”

“Don’t try to plan your life, because that’s not going to work out. Just go with the flow, live in the moment, and make the most of it.”
