For clothes for all occasions:  Ying the Label

This local label is in many ways, a form of self-expression for her founder, Ying. The up-and-coming designer started her career in banking, but loved painting and creating too much to be away for too long. Her creations boast dreamy motifs, structured origami shapes, and lots of textures – and her clientele includes politicians and officials alike.

For fuss-free skincare:  Sigi Skin

What started as an obsession with make-up products for 25-year-old Xenia Wong soon became realization: that the first step to a good look was good skin. The skin care range is perfectly minimalist and convenient, with 4 hardworking products made from superfood ingredients that do all the work for you. It’s quality over quantity, always.

For quirky home decor:  WHENIWASFOUR

Founded by Li Ling and her two friends, WHENIWASFOUR celebrates the seemingly mundane things we’ve grown up with. You never knew you wanted jotter-book-inspired cushion covers, tote bags that look like beverage carriers, and the like, but if you do, here’s the place to go.

For intricate, handmade accessories:  Lovelystrokes

Chloe Chew’s brainchild, Lovelystrokes, is the result of translating architectural patterns and sights into wearable accessories. What you get are unique pieces that look like embroidered fabric, terrazzo tiles, and even mid-century-inspired starburst motifs.
