    Basically, Zalora is not just fashion for her! For Him, you might be able to find something interesting as well. I was quite impressed by their range of products and delivery service. First there are many great products to choose from. Some Local brands such as charles and keith shoes as well as overseas brands we never heard of like Vode Mode, etc.

    I received a promo voucher in my mails as such I proceeded to check out the website and found something i like. From liking to browsing to deciding to purchase and making payment, I should say the entire process is smooth, easy, straight forward and quick.

    However, what impresses me was the delivery, its almost next day and the delivery came in a great ZALORA Box, items are neatly packed with the invoice inside the box. Most importantly, it came with a 30 day money back no questions asked guarantee. If you don't like your purchase, you may arrange a time of collection and they will collect from your delivery location for free. Money returned to your credit card account... no questions asked... no complicated procedures... you don't have to send it down to their "always cannot find" warehouse....

    The products listed on the Zalora website will not necessarily be cheap, however they have sales on a daily or periodical basis, so if you are free surfing online, do pop by and you will never know if you can catch a good bargain! Most importantly, you don't have to yak with the sales auntie to get a S$1 discount off your merchandise.. Do it with some style, Shop Online!

      National Day Parade, an iconic event that we get perked up, excited and enjoy every august as a nation, united and undivided. It is also a time where good memories of our past achievements and events are brought back, reminding us of the adrenaline rushing moments of glory as a little red dot shining in the vast ocean of the many countries, stronger, more establish, with more resources and power. This year’s theme, I find particularly appropriate “Love Singapore, My Home” !

      The front part of the entire event, I find it rather routine. The march in and march pass of the contingents however, this routine events are also much sought after for many. It’s a time where we see the muscles of our country dressed smartly, standing tall with power and dignity, especially for the parents and relative of the contingents. Well trained and extremely timely in every move and positioning. I particularly love to see the Unions march pass. Dressed in polo tees and trying to look neat and timely during marching, these ladies and gentlemen representing the mass public and working unions look proud and happy, I could really see fun in their eyes.

      The usual cannon shots, parachutes jumpers, F1 flying routines, the Navy patrol boats and fireworks creates excitement in the event almost during every moment. What really caught my eye was the Singapore island shaped projection screen and the stage design, I love the projection screen, it somehow allows a good view of whats happening during the cultural and dance performance yet it seems like these cultural performance are embedded into the Singapore Culture, which is very appropriate.

      I also love this year’s NDP goodie bags… The bag itself is the super IN waterproof pack which is functional and very popular, which is totally different from the past year’s NDP Bag where I definitely wouldn’t wanna be seen carrying it. The few other things I like about the NDP goodie bag is the foldable fan, which I find it particularly useful and windy, the slap on rubber wristlet which is fun, the led lite blown up clapping sticks which really light up the skys and prevented a bruised pair of hands from clapping too much and a booklet that illustrates the stories of Singapore which to me is something I will keep for a long time and to show my children.
      What I love and hate is the security checks and the queues to everywhere, which has to happen for security reasons and in a mass event like this, Its no choice, however, I still hate it.

      NDP 2012, ended on a good note and shortly before we know it.. preparations of NDP 2013 will begin… I appreciate all the efforts put into organizing this super iconic events every year and indeed every year as a nation, we cannot but feel proud that we are so FABULOUS… Lets take time and enjoy our peaceful and safe country.

        UNIQLO, 2 Levels of premium Japanese casual wear, office wear and sleeping wear. I had a shocked when I first entered this outlet, shocked by the friendliness of the sales staff, which I find it to be more and more of a common sight these days. Its like entering a Jap Restaurant while instead of being greeted 'irasshaimase" which is an honorable way to greet someone, however has been mis-pronounced in many ways.. you get the good straight forward " Welcome to UNIQLO".

        I love the neatly shelved and arranged clothings, as well as the shiny white walls and cool white lightings which made the shop so clean, clear and the colours of the merchandises outstanding. I cannot help but always had to find something when I visit this outlet. I find the quality of the materials used are great and prices are reasonable. Sometimes when there is a special sale on certain items, Its really quite a steal.

        I love their cartoon and comic series casual tees... The printing is great and graphics nice. The Men's Wear are also a favourite among my family. Sizing is clearly stated and if you wanna try, you could just head on to the many cubicles in the changing room. I particularly like this outlet because they have a level for female clothings and one level for masculine clothings. As and when they do come out with very practical and comfortable clothings like padded singlets which i find a must have for every lady's wardrobe and also lounging pants which are comfy and great for play and LOUNGING!

        Service is generally fantastic, staff is friendly, quick to action and knowledgeable. A great shopping experience I would say.. thats why i come back here again and again! Please bring in more great stuffs and have more special sales....

             neatly stacked fresh apples   Canada’s Pork Special Section   Fresh Veg   ginger   2012-05-01-102728.jpg
          I simply love to visit giant however not on weekends as it will most likely to be sooo crowded. Its like a treat to me, entering with an empty cart and nothing in mind to buy will usually end up at the cashiers with a cartful of weekly supply of drinks, snacks, toiletries, fruits and sometimes even furniture.

          Matter of fact this hypermarket offers almost everything you need within the four walls of your hdb flat. Besides real fresh fruits and vegetables, the freshest you can find besides the wet market there is also a butchery where you can find all sorts of meat with pork sections carefully separated from the other type of meat and live seafood that comes with fish unscaling/ cleaning services.

          If you like coffee, they also have a booth selling freshly ground kopitiam coffee powders, dried goods and every other kinds of seasoning, canned food,, and snacks, milk produces, various types of frozen food, instant processed food and even a very interesting honey product booth that sells my favourite honey sticks. If you like durian, theres a counter for that as well. The thing is the durian smell is not very strong in this fully air conditioned environment, it is pretty well-contained so the non-Durian lovers will find it still pleasant to shop at this hypermart.

          Lifestyle products are also plenty. If you want to buy an aircon, a tv, hifi set, fan, bicycles, camping equipment, etc they have it all. They also have a few shelves dedicated for car owners. Matter of fact they also sell automobile engine oil...

          No wonder i always emerge with a cartful of everything. They are definitely not the cheapest but i feel that the prices are reasonable and its a one stop for eveything. I havent even get started on the wine section. Though they dont have anything special but the price is reasonable for everyday drinking and there is a snack section next to the alcohol section where selected beer / alcohol snacks are placed to pair with your intoxicating drinks.

          Going to giant is like going to the playground for me!
          I get to touch and feel everything and buy anything i want, fiddle with that fish gills, poke the well packaged mince meat, choose from the large variety of instant noodles available, and there are just so many things to buy. Thought the payment queue might be tedious at times, its still a great place to shop for everyday everything.

            I'm rather surprise to find such a huge bookstore on the Level 4 Of Ion Orchard. Intrigued by the huge PROLOGUE logo by the wall, I cannot resist but have to explore this very interesting place.

            Greeting me at the huge entrance is an array of latest bestsellers, local authored novels and interesting general interest books with colourful and eye-drawing hard covers. The magazine section is the first I was drawn to... Neatly stacked techy magazines from all over the world from the famous editing house to the intriguing details of Camera Techniques.. You can find most of your hobby magazines here. The fashion and lifestyle magazines are also aplenty, great for the location as ION ORCHARD is all about Fashion, Lifestyle and Fine Dining.

            The books are neatly arranged in a spacious and generous setting with ample move around spaces in between shelves and books and categorized in an chronological related order so that while your search for a certain genre of books, the related ones are nearby, that could ease walking around aimlessly searching for something you think might not be there. If you cannot find the item you need, the staffs there will be a great help. My half an hour book browsing activity spotted at least 2 of the staffs, consistently packing up the place with replacement of misplaced books, making sure the books are displayed neatly, and refilling merchandises low on count.

            Its a safe place for children to browse their books because the entire place is a pretty open concept, on top of that, i didn't spot any hazardous designs like sharp corners or multiple steps except for the staircase to the upper level, the entire place is pretty child and pram friendly.

            The ceiling high glass windows are a draw to me as it not only lets in natural sunlight, it allows a good bird eye view of the part of orchard road, especially beautiful during rainy days. While i was there i saw them preparing an event space for a book launch, I guess they have many such events during the weekends.

            It is a great place for children and their daddys to spend time while mummys do their weekly fashion downloads downstairs at the chic boutiques. Theres also a cafe at the the corner inside this bookstore that serves really yummy meals and snacks as well as aromatic hot coffee and fanciful tea based drinks.

            I'm sure its a good and intriguing hide out for the lazy afternoons, reading a good book, sipping some aromatic coffee, tucked at the corner, enjoying the warm caress of the sun, cooled by the whiffs of air-conditioning indoor, feeding your ever thirsty intellect.
