For Hallyu enthusiasts (like myself), picking up fashion statements from Korean stars is a given. From K-Drama series, K-Pop music videos to even just OOTD snaps on Instagram by our faves, we’re totally hyped up by cute style inspirations that suit our fashion sense!

Shopping and dressing up like a Seoulite can be a challenge though when you live thousands of miles away from South Korea. Luckily, there are local stores here in the Philippines that offer K-inspired outfits that can be delivered to your doorstep, stat. 

Being a fangirl of Hallyu for many years, I’ve learned to incorporate basic K-Fashion key details into my personal style. Pre-pandemic, my main source of Korean-inspired clothing were thrift shops. Now that that’s out of the picture, I resorted to online shopping.  If you’re on the lookout for affordable Korean-inspired fashion pieces, look no further as I’ve listed down here my go-to’s that won’t disappoint:
