Bomber Jacket

Good for: A sporty and young-at-heart look
Bomber jackets are hot on the women’s streetwear scene, especially this winter season, when they make up Playhound’s signature look. Stick to a basic crop top and mix it with either skinny jeans or sweatpants depending how formal you want to go. Sneakers work for both looks but if you prefer black loafers then make sure to match them with just skinny jeans. 
 

Capes 

Good for: A smart casual look 
Capes sit between formal blazers and  casual kimonos. They’re also so easy to match with either boyish pants or a girly bell skirt. Try mixing a plain-color cape with a crop top and bell skirt, or ethnic, earth-tone colors with black skinny pants. But make sure to pick a light fabric—Bangkok don’t need no wool, ladies.    
 

Blazers

Good for: A classy formal look 
The blazer is a must-have for all working women these days, regardless of season, and you should have more than one for different looks. For something classic, choose a slightly loose-fitting plain blazer to quickly smarten yourself up on T-shirt and jeans days. Tip for this season: blazers with a bathrobe-inspired tie belt are hot. 
 

Kimonos

Good for: An urban-boho look
The ethnic and bohemian trends have moved on from festival chic to a more formal vibe. Pick a black see-through, mesh or knit kimono to match with skinny pants and a sleeveless crop top for the formal side, or go for a long kimono in floral/ethnic prints paired with skinny jean for an arty add-on.
