Before we end the month of July, we are excited to feature you our women crush of the month. This gorgeous lady caught our attention with her trendy fashion outfits and how she beautifully balances her role as a young mother. Read our exclusive interview with Flenny Wong and get to know her more up close and personal.
1. First and foremost, please give a brief introduction of yourself.
Hey there, I’m Flenny! Online, I’m the epitome of coolness, but in reality, I’m delightfully awkward and shy. I have a deep love for dressing up because when I look good, I feel good. It’s incredible how a fabulous outfit can boost my confidence! I proudly wear the titles of wife and new mom, as I welcomed my little bundle of joy in July last year.
Motherhood has completely changed me in the best possible way, and I absolutely adore this version of myself.
2. You look stunning in every outfit you have on. Share with us who is/are your fashion inspiration.
Thank you for your kind words! I find inspiration from everyone around me, and it’s amazing how their unique styles can spark my creativity. My fashion journey is ever- evolving, and I love exploring different styles and experimenting with new looks.
Currently, I’ve been particularly drawn to the fabulous @michellelin.lin and her captivating fashion sense. She’s become a source of inspiration for me lately!
3. In three words, describe to us your sense of style.
Relaxed, Timeless, Effortless.
4. What is your go-to outflt if you are in a rush?
I’d always opt for a crisp white or sleek black crewneck tee, effortlessly paired with a stylish pair of straight leg jeans. To complete the look, I will slip into a pair of adorable black loafers, adding a touch of charm and comfort to my ensemble. This combination is perfect for any occasion, really.
5. High heels? Sneakers? Ballerina flats?
As much as I adore sneakers I make a conscious effort to resist the temptation of constantly purchasing new pairs. Truth be told, on most days, you’ll find me sporting my trusty Crocs. They have become my go-to footwear, and you’ll likely spot me wearing them almost every day.
6. What is one item in your closet do you wear the most?
Black/ white tee! It’s my ultimate go-to, and let’s be honest, nothing beats the simplicity and versatility of basic pieces.
7. What are your go-to favourite brands from ZALORA?
COS! It captivates me with its timeless and minimalist aesthetics, making it a brand I adore. Something about COS.. their garments always effortlessly elevates one’s style, enabling me to achieve a polished and sophisticated look with ease.
8. Drop us some fashion tips for women who want to elevate their everyday style.
Dressing for your body type is undoubtedly crucial, as it empowers you to understand and embrace your unique physique. Equally significant is embracing your personal style, without blindly adhering to passing trends, that don’t suit you at all!
9. We noticed that you are a mama! Share with us how you balance it all with motherhood life.
Yes, I am! 😛 As a new mom, finding balance can be an incredible challenge, but fortunately, I hit the jackpot with the best husband by my side. Hubs, without even needing to be asked, always steps up to take care of Silas, our precious baby. Not only that, he’s the genius behind capturing all my wonderful pictures and videos. Together, we make an unbeatable team, supporting and complementing each other every step of the way. I couldn’t be more grateful for him!
10. What is the best part of motherhood?
One of the most incredible aspects is the opportunity to relive my childhood through Silas! I find immense joy in creating new traditions with him, ones that neither Neil nor I experienced while growing up. Additionally, motherhood has opened my eyes to profound self-discovery and an unparalleled capacity for love—a love that surpasses anything I could have fathomed before becoming a mom. It’s a transformative journey that continuously reveals new dimensions of love and teaches me about the depths of my own being.
11. You look amazing! Share with us what your fItness routine looks like as a mom to stay in shape and feel healthy?
Thank you so much! I receive that compliment frequently, though I often feel a tinge of guilt when responding because I haven’t consciously pursued a specific diet or rigorous exercise routine. I suppose I am simply fortunate to have been blessed with favorable genetics, and for that, I am immensely grateful.
12. If you could only choose three makeup items to carry on with you, what would it be?
Lipstick, Mascara & a Blusher
13. What are some self-care practices that are important to you as a mom?
One of the most crucial self-care practices as a mom is to prioritize “me time,” even if it’s just dedicating 15-30 minutes a day. During this precious time, I make it a priority to recharge and engage in activities that bring me joy and fulfillment. It’s a vital opportunity to refuel my energy and take care of my own needs amidst the demands of motherhood.
14. What would be an ideal Sunday be for you?
An ideal Sunday begins with everyone waking up naturally, without the intrusion of alarms. We relish the opportunity to stay in, cuddle up with hubs, and indulge in a selection of captivating movies. Meanwhile, Silas immerses himself in the world of his toys, independently exploring and delighting in his own solitary playtime. Hahaha!
15. What is one thing that people would be surprised to know about you?
To those who have never met me in person, it may come as a surprise to discover that I am actually a genuinely awkward and shy individual. I have a knack for unintentionally bringing conversations to a halt, earning the title of a “conversation killer.” This is the real me, don’t trust everything you see on the internet!
16. If you could have one superpower, what would it be and why?
Cliché, but teleportation would be my ultimate choice. The ability to instantly transport myself to any desired location holds immense appeal, offering the freedom to explore the world at a moment’s notice…sounds fun!
17. What is your greatest pet peeve?
Definitely when someone chews loudly while eating, it is such an unbearable distraction!
18. If you could live a day in someone’s life, who would it be and why?
I enjoy singing so maybe to live like any good singers for a day because I want to experience having the same talent ahaha
19. What is one thing that a woman should do at least once in her life.
Travel alone. It is an immensely empowering endeavour that fosters self-discovery and personal growth.
20. Every woman should know how to…
Embrace self love! Everybody should ❤ .
