Fashion: It's Prints Galore at MDS!

Minimalist chic is my cup of tea but there are occasions when I am more adventurous, and that’s when prints and colours come out to play. Since Chinese New Year is just around the corner, I figured it’s time to have fun with prints and colours!

Here’s a piece of good news for you ladies. It's prints galore at MDSCollections! From floral for spring to tropical for summer to brocade for fall and winter, there is a print for any mood you’re in. Here are a few pieces I'm eyeing from the home-grown fashion label now:

1. Floral

There is never a time when floral print isn't relevant. A spring-ready print like that brightens up any day and makes a statement on its own. Just look at Miranda Kerr's ladylike ensemble.

Do you know what makes floral print even more feminine? A floral midi skirt reminiscent of the 1950s like this one from MDS. Perfect with white pumps and a crop top.

2. Tropical

Selena Gomez's sunny Dolce and Gabbana red carpet outfit had me sold on tropical prints.

Even if you can't take that island vacation now, wearing tropical prints can put you in a vacation mood. Well, at least it works for me, which is why this adorable flamingo and palm tree printed blouse caught my eye. Pair it with skinny pants and a pair of loafers, and you’re all ready for the weekend.

3. Brocade

I may not be a huge Selena Gomez fan, but she definitely hit the right note with this Dolce and Gabbana outfit again. This time, she stands out from the crowd in a luxurious brocade print dress:

Dating back to as early as the Middle Ages, brocade fabric was one of the few luxury fabrics worn by nobility in Greece, China, Japan, Korea and the Byzantium empire. Brocade print is lush and sexy in itself, but as a crop top, brocade's sexiness factor skyrockets. For this top from MDS, I'd pair it with high-waist flare trousers and throw on a crisp blazer for work, or a flare skirt for a lunch date.

4. Bird

I am OBSESSED with bird prints. Whimsical and adorable, bird motifs add a girly touch to any outfit. Even VB looks sweet in this bird print dress.

This pair of bird print shorts from MDS Collections would go well with ankle booties and a white blouse for a downtown look, a style that Rachel Bilson would approve.

5. Graphic

Graphic prints are so bold and chic that they jazz up any neutral outfit straight away. Look smart and strong a la Olivia Wilde in graphic prints!

This crop top from MDS comes with athletic details like a striped collar and sleeves. Take on the sports luxe look with high waist flare pants and thin strapped heels, or work the street look with cuffed jeans and sneakers.
