Your Personal Shopper Loves… Lili Shares Her Must-Have Buys
Get to know the tastes and styling tips of NET-A-PORTER’s Personal Shoppers as they reveal what’s on their Wish List this season – and how they will be wearing their picks. Here, Lili, from our Hong Kong team, divulges her most-wanted pieces and why she loves them
“I love beautiful details, fine fabrics and modern design. Clothing can be both artful and personal, and I like [looks with] contemporary elegance – when pieces are classy and comfortable. [Fashion] is a way to capture and record emotions, feelings and experiences, so when I think about an unforgettable moment, I always remember the clothes I wore that day, too. And while it’s fun to put effort into creating an outfit and getting dressed up, if I don’t have time, I reach for statement accessories, such as jewelry and watches, to elevate and complete a look. I now have several elegant investment pieces that suit the styling needs of almost any occasion.
“As a Personal Shopper at NET-A-PORTER, my relationship with clients is very collaborative. Our daily interactions and having to learn about the diverse preferences of different personalities [have gifted me] a deep understanding of how fashion can impact people.
“In my opinion, style hasn’t evolved much since the pandemic, but I think that attitudes and mindsets have changed. In the past, I would buy clothes to cater to certain occasions; now, I buy clothes just because I like them and feel good when I’m wearing them. I don’t think much about where and when I’ll have an occasion to wear clothes when making a purchase, either, because I can wear them whenever I want – I can create my own opportunities.”

Wide-leg pants
“I love the loose silhouette and high waist of wide-leg, tapered pants. The Row is so skilled at creating flattering, versatile tailoring that looks chic and is easy to style. For a minimalist take, I would pair them with knitwear in a natural color. Allude is a good choice for cashmere knitwear because of its high quality and beautiful craft, but the label also boasts contemporary, smart design. I would style this wide-leg look with fuzzy cashmere slides from Gabriela Hearst for a cozy, relaxed day outfit.”

Statement rings
“Statement jewelry plays an important role and [can make simple pieces] look more sophisticated. For example, I love the interlocking-ring designs from Spinelli Kilcollin, which offer a layered effect that can be worn stacked on one finger or linked across both hands. Personally, I would wear one ring on each hand, but on different fingers.”

Oversized blazer
“A blazer is a must-have style staple for a smooth transition from summer to fall. It keeps you warm and offers a cool, stylish finish. When choosing a blazer, I like a minimalist piece in a colorful fabric to create a more vibrant outfit – I love Jacquemus for this because the label’s bright designs are so joyful. An oversized blazer is also timeless because it’s flattering and helps to balance body proportions. I think the style has vintage appeal, too – I’ll be layering mine over a simple top, then pairing with ankle boots from Ann Demeulemeester.”
