Clutch Sightings

As a designer, nothing else makes your heart aflutter but women whose style you adore, appreciate your work.  Not that I ever fancy myself as one. I am just always giddy to see my clutches clutched by uber-chic women like these three. Allow me to share with you my favorite clutch sightings.

Patricia from Paradigma added a jolt of color to her all black ensemble with the Kirstie.

Sarah of Fashion Eggplant graced Megastyle's virtual pages with the sold-out orange Jenna in hand. 

Only Lana of Hautepot can wear red this good. Too bad this Jenna is sold-out too.

Find other Jennas and other styles here. A new collection is brewing too and my heart skips a bit just thinking about it. 

Cheers To Motherhood + Chic Kit Giveaway!

To celebrate our new look and more importantly, the toughest job in the world-- we are throwing a major giveaway! Below are key pieces to a mother's chic kit. Topping the list is a multiway dress from CocoChicka. Get creative and this dress can give you 5 looks at the least to dress up and down! 

With yours truly being a huge fan of statement necklaces, House of Heirloom is throwing in my most fave find-- the Gerturde in navy and white! 

Another favorite is Carioca's Caravelas in animal print. A lifesaver for days when you have a closetful of nothing-to-wear! 

Then of course, there's the Kirstie clutch that never fails to add an element of surprise to any outfit. 

What's an ensemble without stylish and comfortable footwear? Butterfly Twists is generously throwing in a pair of Eve's to complete the chic kit! 

And last but not least, my dear Mischka is giving away a Matryoshka doll from her collection to celebrate Mischmash's signature look! Ain't this fun??!

Clutch de Rio

Carioca's newest addition are the Rio clutches made of vintage fabrics, fully lined and trimmed with real leather. Sharing the same style philosophy as the kimonos, the clutches are made both for the beach and urban style warriors, always giving that dose of 'unexpected' to any ensemble. 

Prints are one-of-a-kind and as much as we want to repeat our favorites, there will be no reruns.

The Rio clutches are now available via Zalora and will soon be out in Chicify too. Here's to hoping you get to clutch a Rio!

a typical day

As I mentioned here before, I love involving Mischka in everything that I do, big or small. A typical day for us can be crazy, running errands from one end of town to the other. Some days can be uneventful (but blissful) at home, baking, reading or just plain lounging around. My mission is simple -- do at least one productive thing every single day. 

Last week for us was very busy. I had a boxful of new stocks to deliver to their respective outlets. Normally the whole process of preparing, tagging, wrapping, and delivering is taxing (especially if you do everything yourself-- not that I'm complaining) but with Le Misch around, even if there is more work, it seems lighter and a lot more fun!

Checking each and every merchandise.

A preview of Fall from my eponymous line.

Our scheduled delivery destination for the day- PLUCK.

More of my favorite things in Pluck.

I have 3 items left in-store. I hope they find their homes soon.

My little assistant is tired from a hard day's work.

But was up and snacking in no time.

My typical Singapore garb- GAP chambray button-downs, Old Navy white shorts, H&M leather belt, New Look ballet flats and necklaces from my loot.

Pluck is a charming little boutique with a cafe and an ice cream parlour. Their ice cream is a must-try! And the shop, a must-visit!
