artistic candlebranch

April 11th, 2008

What do you get when you combine tradition with contemporary art? A Candlebranch. In this stylish candle holder, Norwegian designer Camilla Halvorsen seeks to offer a fresh alternative to how light can be integrated into the home environment. She boldly exploits the inherent qualities of acrylic that celebrates the traditional candle display in a contemporary context. The result of this bold approach is a beautiful artpiece with an intricate play of positive and negative space, especially when the shadow adds a further dimension to the entire design.

creating an outdoor living area

April 4th, 2008

For those who live in the tropics, having a sunroom may not be something you think about as part of your home remodelling plans. But those who experience the four seasons and particularly extreme ones will love to add a cosy and relaxing sunroom to your current living spaces. Building a sunroom with views to your manicured gardens and patio is a wonderful idea for dinner parties, celebrations and high tea gatherings.

scrubs with a difference

April 2nd, 2008

Let me begin by defining the term ’scrubs’. I’m not referring to the soap Scrubs on TV but the shirts and trousers or gowns worn by surgeons, nurses, and other operating room personnel. Don’t think that these are just pale or dull coloured uniform you see on TV or movies but actually medical scrubs are pretty modern and trendy these days.

scrubs with a difference

Just take a look at the dickies scrubs or the other scrubs at Scrubs and Beyond. Actually, I was pleasantly surprised at the attractive home page design of a website selling scrubs. The online store is colourful, very attractive and carries a contemporary flair. Just like the site design, the scrubs collection including cherokee medical scrubs, Katherine Heigl’s new collection and Barco metro scrubs offer stylish designs for both women and men. At first glance, I wouldn’t think that this Katherine Heigl Scrubs South beach sunrise print scrub top is actually worn by those in the operating theater. It looks like a nice top for a casual weekend or a relaxed shopping day!

the leader in luxury fashion

the leader in luxury fashion

This may be the dream bag for those who crave for ultimate craftsmanship and feminine luxury but when I was told that a basic medium bag will cost around S$3K, I almost fell off the chair. I am not doubting the quality nor am I saying it’s not worth every single cent cos we are talking about Bottega Veneta, the leader in luxury fashion best known for its signature leather goods, including handbags, luggage and leather wallets.

temptations at max studio

April 2nd, 2008

temptations at max studio

I find myself thinking about the shirred gathered top I saw at Max Studio during my last trip to Singapore. I was already at the cashier, ready to check out when she told me that I should top up my purchase to S$250 to qualify for a VIP card. Then I didn’t know what happened but I decided to hold on to the item for a while. Perhaps I was afraid that I would end up with an impulse buy but looking back, it was a really nice top that was so ‘me’ - it was just my style. I love the frothy sleeves, layered look and the romantic textures created by artful shirring and gathering around the neckline and down the length of the billowy balloon sleeves. This dreamy piece is really versatile - great as a tunic length to match with leggings and skinny jeans, but it can be worn on its own as a chic springtime dress. Then again, one visit at the online store of Max Studio and I’m all tempted to add more tops and dresses for this season! Here’s another item that caught my eye at the store… this khaki shawl top is so versatile and natural, take a look at the cute sleeves.

hope for the crown of glory

April 2nd, 2008

hope for the crown of glory

Many friends were indeed surprised when they met my hubby for the first time. They found the contrast to be funny cos I used to have long hair and my hubby was bald. Well, being bald used to be a social stigma for DH when he was younger and in the 80s but not anymore now. I still tease him about seeking hair solution from time to time but he will always tell me it’s just too late. True or not, it depends on the person’s hair loss condition but when I view the positive results of those who had undergone hair transplant and treatment at Nuhart, I am convinced by the fantastic outcome. Believe it or not, Nuhart team of professionals have conducted more than 30,000 hair restoration procedures - can you imagine that! The good news is customers can now seek treatment from the 10 office worldwide including the USA, Hong Kong, Philippines, Puerto Rico, Poland and UAE. With effective solutions to combat hair loss problems, there’s hope now for those who long for a beautiful crown of glory.

in the world of beauty

April 2nd, 2008

Beauty is an issue most women deal with on a daily basis. Let’s face it - it bothers us when someone comments that we look tired. This can sometimes be interpreted as ‘You look like a door mat’. We will spend money on beauty products and treatments that can erase our facial concerns and shortcomings, as long as we can afford it. But if you are unsatisfied with the way that you look or the way you feel, you may have even considered facial surgery. With advanced technology in the beauty world, cosmetic surgery has helped to improve the physical appearance of many women but it must be understood that it may not be for everyone.

timeless luxury at anteprima

April 2nd, 2008

timeless luxury at anteprima

The anteprima bags on display at The Paragon for this season is awesome. Created by Izumi Ogino, the Anteprima woman is one who appreciates timeless beauty and luxury. She is modern, sophisticated and contemporary. Anteprima bags and shoes need no introduction in Hollywood, Milan or the world of fashion. I find the beaded bags very pretty, attractive, feminine, fashionable but I’m not sure if I’m ready to pay for one. No, I haven’t stepped into an Anteprima shop but perhaps I should the next time I’m out for a shopping spree.
