Recently the cover girl of our March 2015 issue, Yap Po Leen  s undisputedly one of the up and coming fashionistas in town, who has never failed to impress us with her amazing wardrobe.

Donning a beautiful Alexander McQueen black dress in the recent Malaysia Tatler Ball, Po Leen turned heads around as she blazes through the red carpet.

On that look, she says, "I don’t like my look to be too girly and sleek. So, I always opt for something with an edge on. I was so worried about the fit of the McQueen dress but when I have it on, I felt amazing!"

When spotted at the most coveted social events in town, Po Leen is always dressed in various styles. She's a fashion chameleon, so to speak.

She explains, "When I lived in London, the fashion scene there was incredible. It's a melting pot of culture and fashion. It pushed me to constantly change and evolve my style. It’s the perfect place to be experimental."

Here, she shares with us what she has her eye on for her next shopping trip.

"Nowadays, I try to add some statement accessories to my look, instead of just a pretty little dress, and heels really add to an outfit."
