Botanic Gardens - Singapore

As nearly a year has passed since we left London for Singapore, we have considered moving to another part of the island. Botanic Gardens seem to tick quite a few boxes...we love the vibe, the character, the geenery, the quaint cafe's and independent boutiques. Some of W T's highlights of Botanic Gardens include:

• Fashion: Little Man Stocking a variety of independent, good quality brands of womenswear, menswear, kidswear, accessories, jewellery, home and even a little freezer full of organic ice lollies! We particularly loved the eyewear range, and had to buy these classic RAEN frames in chocolate with a distinctive white line detail all around the eye frames.
• Dinner: Bronte Great comfort fulfilling food and great service to top it off. We weren't overly hungry so shared a few courses. Those which stood out was the lamb linguine, and the chocolate tart with banana. Situated in the buzzy Greenwood Avenue, where there are lots of quaint, albeit pricey, al fresco dining spots.

Coach Legacy Fall Collection 2012 launch - Singapore

It's the launch of the Coach Legacy Fall Collection which also coincides with the opening of the Coach flagship store in Singapore - so what a great excuse to throw a party! I loved the bright, vibrant primary coloured bags, in the softest leather, roomy interier, and a leather tassel as a finishing touch. The practical long straps were also a big plus point for me. 

The sparkly jewellery also caught my magpie eyes. The mix of dainty and chunky struck a nice balance and the tone of gold would warm up all complexions. There was also a tatooist at the event which I thought was a very original and modern way to personalise luxe leather goods. Top the evening off with Moët, mini burgers, cupcakes, a live band, movie star Simon Yam and his beautiful wife Qiqi and Singaporean actor Elvin Ng plus more in attendance = a great launch party! 

The Coach flagship store in Singapore is located at #02-19/27 in Wisma Atria.
