From Saint Laurent leather shorts to The Attico knits, find out what Yoyo Cao––known as Yoyokulala on Instagram––is shopping for this week

It's hard not to be influenced by Yoyo Cao's fashion choices. The 32-year-old Singapore-based style star has been a fixture on Asia's best dressed lists for over a decade. Thanks to her 422,000 followers on Instagram, the Macau-born content creator has partnered with heavy hitters in fashion like Gucci, Celine, Dior and Chanel to put her playful spin on classic pieces, providing oodles of inspiration for anyone stuck in a style rut.

In 2010, she opened Exhibit, a multi-brand boutique in Far East Plaza on Orchard Road in Singapore, cementing her status as a fashion player to watch. Today, she has taken on a new role: mother to her soon-to-be three-year-old son, Luca. Here, she reveals the pieces she needs in her closet.

"In Singapore, the weather is brutally warm most days. I love how leather shorts afford comfort while still allow me to look put together. I could easily wear these to a formal meeting by throwing a tailored blazer over them."

"I was obsessed with this monogrammed pair the moment I laid eyes on them on the runway. I don't usually gravitate towards monogrammed pieces because of how loud they are, but the discreet double-C logos on this pair of trousers are a really cute touch to an everyday pant."
