Overdrawn eyebrows
The popular straight and thick eyebrow shape from Korea took over Singapore’s beauty ideals in 2015. It is meant to make you look youthful and sweet by softening on the brow arches. But some Singaporeans just screw it up and turn it into Crayon Shin-chan:
I see so many brows that I find to be a crime. Some even pay to get their eyebrows done like that (tattooed eyebrows, anyone?). It doesn’t suit their face shape at all, and if they’re thinking of accentuating/beautifying their facial features – girl. Stop. Seriously.Brows frame a person’s face, so you gotta be careful about those hairs up there. First impression does count somewhat, no matter what people say! Let’s hope the trend of overdrawn brows stay in 2015.

Button up denim skirts
Yes, vintage is back in style and so is the A-line denim button-front skirt. I have to admit, even I had two pieces in my closet. Just pair it with a pair of chunky heels and a cool off-shoulder top to complete the 70’s look.

Sneakers
Everyone was wearing the New Balance 574 Series. Gotta admit though, it looks pretty dope.Sneakerheads were also on the rise in 2015. So basically what a sneakerhead is, is a person who collects, trades or admires sneakers as a hobby. A sneakerhead may also be highly experienced in distinguishing between real and fake replica sneakers. They are the ones who cause most of the hype about footwear.
On the other hand, sneakers are evolving from being just a trend and into a wardrobe staple. From big brands like Nike and Adidas to indie designers like Superga, this is one 2015 trend that’s staying this year.

Fit, not skinny, bodies
Having a skinny figure used to be desirable, but now, a slim body that is toned is preferred.
