So we went to watch Guardians of the Galaxy the other day and this is what I wore. It’s been pretty hot lately and even when the sun sets, it’s well over 40 Degree Celsius. No need for a cardigan or cover-up of any kind.
What I’m wearing:
Dress: Multi-coloured strapless maxi dress from THE ISLAND SHOP
Accessories: Hot pink baubles statement necklace from FOSSIL; Purple stretchy belt with gold buckle from RIVER ISLAND
Bag: Purple polka-dotted clutch from WISHFUL THINKING on etsy.com
Footwear: Red lacquer platform sandals from ZARA WOMEN
I’m so happy to hear that River Island will be back in Singapore through web-based multi-brand retailer Zalora!
I’ve purchased many various things through that website – including my 2 favourite Steve Madden shoes (the square stud loafers and my sparkling purple ballet flats) and a cream-coloured trash can among other things. I love that it’s online shopping, free local delivery and RETURNS! No questions asked. I once bought a pair of shoes that were too small and they got someone to pick it up within 2 days and my money was refunded immediately!
So anyway, I was buying River Island even before they had stores in Singapore and was obviously gutted when the stores disappeared (I used to go to the one at Raffles City near where I worked).
Check out some of the River Island things I’ve worn in the past:
As you can see, River Island is good for different styles – clothes and accessories. Zalora will be carrying everything from clothes, shoes to accessories for both men and women. Prices range from as low as S$20 odd for a camisole top to S$199 for a gown. What I think is great is that they will have a mix of past and current season stock at any given point in time.
And here are some of my RIVER ISLAND recommendations available on Zalora:
This is a new top. I bought it yesterday and I haven’t washed it. I love it so much I had to wear it today! I know, I know… I’m supposed to be clearing my things and stop with the buying until my wardrobe is of acceptable size but I was weak. I went out shopping for gifts for T’s relatives and my friend Glenn’s birthday but I ended up spending about S$106 on myself. This top (S$24.90) and two necklaces from ACCESSORIZE (S$80.80). This just means that I’m gonna have to do another wardrobe clear out in the next few weeks. Heh… Give me 2 weeks to decide what I can part with… Heehee! I could definitely use some extra $$$
Anyway, I’ve been told that today’s get-up is quite unusual for me and I look more casual than on normal days. What can I say? I love this top a little too much to care! Also, it was raining when I left the house today!
What I’m wearing today:
Top: Light blue Little Twin Stars 3/4 jersey from UNIQLO x SANRIO
Accessories: Navy hair bow from a swop meet; Pink ear studs from GRER (gift from Felix); Black calculator watch from CASIO
Bottoms: Navy jeans from RIVER ISLAND
Footwear: Mint ARIEL ballet flats from Le Bunny Bleu
I was told not to wear large shoulders because my shoulders are wide enough but I’m making an exception for KRAFTWERK!!!! I’m watching Kraftwerk 3-D at the Esplanade Theatre tonight at 8pm! I heard limited tickets are still available if you want to join the “robots”…
So yeah, boxy shoulders, robots, Kraftwerk… You know?

It’s a Saturday and I’m back at work. As I type this, there’s a heavy downpour outside. I’m safe and snug… Well as snug as I can at a work desk, indoors.
I’m wearing 2 items that are gifts from special men in my life – my dear old pal Ryddy bought this top during his last trip back to the UK and the hair bow is a purchase made by my boyfriend T, at the hot and noisy street markets of Bangkok.
Thanks Tamares for taking these photos! I love these dreamcatcher clouds!
