From subtle landscapes to giant pineapples, be sure to turn heads wearing Finnish label, Marimekko at Style:Nordic. With her soft feminine lines, the Australian designer Fleur Wood is now available at Antipodean. And we're loving the new Karen Millen jewellery collection with her chunky, statement pieces. For those looking for a bargain check out the new Collectibles by Club 21, a guerrilla concept store at The Forum.

Cozy up in the comfy leather seats at the indie cinema dedicated to Singaporean films.
