Shi Shan, who&#8217;s only 22-years-old, has been running her own online enterprises since she was a student.<\/p>\n<p>Minimalyst Label, which was established in 2016, is an accessories label carries mostly earrings. Despite it&#8217;s name, earrings from Minimalyst Label &#8220;are for the fun and quirky&#8221;, as their tagline suggests.<\/p>\n<p>Audra Concept, on the other hand, is a fast fashion apparel line, established earlier in August this year. Audra Concept caters to the modern Singaporean twenty-something, with pieces suitable both for hustling in the CBD or laid-back Sunday brunches in a cafe.<\/p>\n<p>The young fashion enthusiast shares details about running an online business in a competitive market like ours.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Inspired By Trends<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_20749\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20749\" class=\"wp-image-20749\" src=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Screen-Shot-2018-11-04-at-11.29.43-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"505\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-20749\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bib5orrDxFB\/\">Source<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>When statement jewellery was spotted on the Spring 2016 runways,\u00a0 this inspired several local retailers to bring those pieces to our shores. This trend inspired Shi Shan to work on a label of her own.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;The outburst of statement jewellery sparked my interest and hence, I founded Minimalyst Label in November 2016.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>While most of us might have been gallivanting around shopping malls or playing video games with our friends to pass time after O-Levels, Shi Shan spent her time wisely. She teamed up with a friend to source for apparel that they could sell online.<\/p>\n<p>According to Shi Shan, they simply wanted to &#8220;earn some extra bucks aside from our part-time job&#8221;. Though they did not expect much, their small venture did well. As Shi Shan recalls, &#8220;online shopping was a thriving market which was rather new and interesting back then&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The success of their endeavor allowed\u00a0 Shi Shan to discover her passion for fashion.\u00a0 &#8220;The satisfaction of our achievements made me realise what I wanted to do for a living, and it is that satisfaction that has kept me going till today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>A One Woman Show<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_20750\" style=\"width: 515px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20750\" class=\"wp-image-20750\" src=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Screen-Shot-2018-11-04-at-11.32.36-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"505\" height=\"526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Screen-Shot-2018-11-04-at-11.32.36-PM.png 505w, https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Screen-Shot-2018-11-04-at-11.32.36-PM-480x500.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 505px, 100vw\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-20750\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BjADiGhDqVe\/\">Source<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Shi Shan admits to starting from ground zero, with no knowledge about operating a fashion business.
