01 LEARN FROM CELEBRITY STYLISTS

Up your fashion game by booking a course with renowned fashion stylist Lucinda Chambers, who has been a magazine fashion director for 25 years. She’s offering an online fashion styling course at Business of Fashion (www.businessoffashion.com/education/ courses/fashion-styling-lucinda-chambers) where you can learn how to be a stylist as well as the shoot process. The 11-hour course features downloadable learning materials so you can learn at your own pace, and is free for BoF Professional account holders (sign up for US$37 or S$52 a month to get unlimited access to all courses).

Other fashion professionals are also viewing this as an opportunity to give back: New York-based celebrity stylist Allison Bornstein, whose clients include Gigi Hadid and Katie Holmes, is offering Facetime wardrobe consultations (Allisonbornstein.com) for US$150 or S$212, of which US$50 will be channelled to the Food Bank for NYC, a hunger-relief programme for low-income New Yorkers.

02 EXPERIMENT WITH A NEW HAIR COLOUR

Play it safe with a temporary colour if you’re afraid you won’t like what you see. And it’s not all safe tones like dark brown and black. Try Sephora’s Sephora Collection Colour Blush 1-Day Hair Colour – just spray it 15cm away from your hair and give it two minutes to dry. You can also try L’Oreal Paris Colorista Hair Makeup ($16.90, in violet only, from Watsons.com.sg). Both wash off at your next shampoo.
