Rebecca Lim 2023 Resolutions
Say Goodbye to the Online Shopping Bingo
Week‑end cravings turned into impulse clicks? Rebecca Lim’s 32‑year‑old declaration to the New Paper is all about saying no to the endless parade of tempting deals.
- She’s on a mission to save more moolah and ditch unnecessary purchases.
- “When I stumble on a cheap offer, I pause and ask myself if I really need it,” she says.
- Her trick? Mix and match old favorites with a few new finds so the wardrobe stays fresh without a checkout.
The Plain‑Vanilla Staples that Keep Her Looks Fun
Lim admits she’s “not super daring” when it comes to fashion, but she’s absolutely hilarious about her wardrobe fundamentals.
- White tees. Eight of them, because they pair with almost anything.
- We’ve seen her sporting“joggers, tee, jeans” on family outings and errands.
- There’s a humorous side: she sometimes skips the blow‑dryer or pinch of makeup and just goes, “Let ’s be real – I’m a human, not a runway model.”
Being Confident Without the Heavy Make‑Up
Wearing skin‑flattering clothes comes with a mental shift: confidence, cheerfulness, and comfort become the new makeup.
She reminds us that constantly fussing over glamour can eclipse the deeper self.
Learning to Dress for Her Body Type
After 15 years in showbiz, Lim’s understanding of body‑friendly outfits has grown.
- Early 20s: “I’d wear anything on trend, ignoring what actually suits me.”
- Now, she experiments responsibly and is grateful for the chance to wear stunning outfits and capture beautiful photos.
Show-Biz Highlights
From her latest TV role to glamorous award nights, let’s dive into what’s on her calendar.
The Bridge: Detective in Sunglasses
Rebecca’s role in the Asian version of the Swedish hit The Bridge has her playing a detective with a militant sunburnt look and special-effects freckles. Because of the storyline, she spends most of the time basking in the sun.
- She applies sunscreen daily, every two to three hours.
- Umbrella in hand, check. It’s like having an always‑on shield.
- She starts each day with a 250 ml glass of water and supplements for hair, skin, and nails – a ritual that fuels her on‑screen persona.
A Red‑Carpet Elegance: The Gucci & Louis Vuitton Affair
At the Asian Academy Creative Awards, Lim was a picture of chic in a black Louis Vuitton evening gown, clutching Goldheart jewelry. The hit quote? “Classic pieces win because I was bumpingly comfy.”
The Stunning Gucci Pantsuit
Lim’s editorial shoot in a red Gucci pantsuit was a showstopper. Key details like gold buttons, Gucci bag, Dita sunglasses, and Manolo Blahnik pumps gave the look a “glam + casual” vibe perfect for a shorter‑statured model.
Dior for a Rainy Day: Boots Filled The Gap
When Singapore’s weather swung from sunshine to drizzle, she slipped into a Dior ensemble to stay cozy, turning her usual boots and skirt into a weather‑appropriate power move.
Weekend Vibes: Casual Maje + Miu Miu
For a relaxed Sunday, Gret’s look was baggy jeans, a loose Miu Miu top, and glow‑in‑the‑dark sneakers. The “dad” sneakers? “They’re comfy, you can match any outfit, and they add some height. My dad would approve.”
Final Words from Lim
With her daily rituals, fashion sensibility, and no‑frills confidence, Rebecca Lim is stepping out of the online shopping vortex while keeping her style true to herself. Good luck, Lim! Your style secrets are pure gold for every audience who’s ever meant to be comfortable in their own skin.
