Hong Kong actress Tina Leung knows a thing or two about fashion, which is hugely evident in Tatler Singapore’s March 2023 cover story featuring the Bling Empire star. For this look, Leung chose a pink tweed long coat to be the centre of the ensemble. Her accessories—silver earrings, pearl necklace, white handbag and black pumps—take the backseat while still complementing the whole outfit. Très chic!
