Shoe Bubble - Charles & Keith

I just got back from another lovely weekend in Singapore with the boy and participated in one of Singapore's greatest traditions - shopping!

Orchard Road is the place to get all your wares in Singapore and a new shopping centre (ION Orchard) opened a few weeks ago that I was keen to check out. ION is 8 levels - 4 underground and 4 aboveground and is made up of a whole range of stores from high end to high street as well as a top notch food court.

I purchased some lovely gold gladiators (perfect for my upcoming trip back home to Oz) from Charles & Keith, a great Singaporean (and very affordable) shoe store. Mine were a bargain at S$27 which is currently about AUD$23. I can't find a photo of my new shoes but here are some other snaps from their summer range...

Carla Zampatti turns 50

This year marks 50 years of the iconic Carla Zampatti fashion label. After being denied a pay rise from her £13 a week job designing blouses for a wholesale fashion house in 1964, she launched her own label a year later and the rest is fashion history. The fashion house celebrated yesterday with the 2015 Spring/Summer showcase in Sydney at the Opera House. A beautiful, elegant and gorgeous collection. Well played Ms Zampatti.

West Elm Market, Brooklyn

I want one of these to open up here in Singapore where there is a serious lack of cool homewares stores! This looks like my kind of shop. The West Elm Market focuses on selling goods from 4 key product areas - kitchen, garden, care & repair and personal care. Products are available online here images via West Elm

Music memories

I have the office to myself this afternoon so I can ditch the headphones and am turning up the music. I used to be really up to date with music, read music blogs and keep up with new songs, artists, go to gigs.. but this has sort of faded out in the last few years. These days I seem to rely a lot on Spotify and their playlists and recommendations which is great for busy people! But this afternoon I am feeling a bit nostalgic so reminiscing and playing some songs played at our wedding back in 2010 which is bringing back some beautiful memories. Walking down the aisle: First dance:
