    Hi Singaporeans,
    This is my long time doubt which keeps running in my mind.. whenever I have to pack for SG. I'm little heavy.. you can see my signature for my weight(Not little very much heavy !!) :oops:. So wearing a jeans & T's is kind of uncomfortable for me. though DH says it looks good on me. I dont want to wear it uncomfortably.. I just want to wear them.. atleast when I'm few inches less :cool:. Is it must that you have to wear formal pants/shirts or atleast Jeans & tops when you go out or incase If I have to goto work.:confused2: May sound like a stupid thread !! But please help me.. "BE A ROMAN IN ROME" concept just dont work for me because of my weight.not that I cant wear it at all.. I can wear it if people dont look at me differently.. But is it still ok to stick with Some Kurthas & leggings even though I dont want to look too vintage by wearing Salwar Kameeez always.:roll: except some occasions. I just want to know how people feel about dressing in Singapore.. this may not be like a major concern that I have to put my time on.. But I'm a person who likes to get dressed well very much !! :bonk

    Hi Sugan,

    Welcome to SG dear :) You can wear salwars, tops and pant and of course formals to office. I wear salwars most of the weekdays and wear indian style tops and jeans on weekends. It works well for me :)
