Borrowing your friend's watches is getting old. Get your own colourful and fun timepieces with the new collection from Swatch. "Worldhood" brings together five distinct themes, from suave metallic silicone, famous artworks at the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands, tapestry chicness, knitting, to minimalist black and white. Needless to say there's definitely something for everyone here. Check them out at the Swatch counters and shops at your nearest department stores.
There's more to Scandinavian style than IKEA. Head to the newly-revamped Marimekko's flagship store on the 1st floor of CentralWorld to channel that simplicity in your everyday look. Find your favourite prints and colours in the store's ready-to-wear corner, which is displaying the Finnish brand's Pre-Fall 2018 collection. There is also a homeware section for lifestyle items for you to weave great designs into your daily life. Taking a stroll inside this retail-meets-gallery concept store will also give you inspiration on how to liven up your own space.
Where's my tiara? Where's my sash? Miss Universe 2018 will be held this December in Thailand! In preparation, Miss Universe Thailand is now holding the national costume design contest under the theme "Creative Thai". Grab your pencil and paper (or tablet if you're tech savvy). Bring out your inner Edna Mode. Tuk-tuk is done, and Maria Poonlertlarp even carried a life-sized mannequin onstage last time. So what's it gonna be this year? Deadline is on Sept 7.
