Reef surf-inspired sandals

Some of you may remember the very first Miss Reef Bikini held at the Reef Wakefest in Singapore last July where the participants were parading around in lycra athletic tops and Reef sandals from Argentina.  Cool sandals eh?  You may also have seen the brand if you shop enough at The Heeren Shops.

Well, they’re cool indeed.  After all, Reef is the world’s leader in authentic, surf-inspired good quality footwear.  Don’t believe?  Just look up their website or at Active Sandals which carries the largest selection of Reef sandals

Unique handcrafted jewelries

If you’re looking for unique, one-of-a-kind vintage jewelries, you might want to check out ArtisansMarket.com, a website selling unique handcrafted art and gifts by independent artisans.  Or better still, if you’re an artist with interesting creative pieces, you should try to expand your market using this website.

I’ve emailed my friend San, who creates her own jewelries that she can place her pieces on their online consignment shops.  That way, she can try to expand her reach while she’s currently building up her portfolio and website.  Of course ArtisansMarket.com will charge her a fee which is 20% of her sale, but she can potentially gain lots more customers.

Prada Plex Stampato Tote

Rope handles.  Cross-body strap. 
ID tag.  Leather coin purse. 
Clear plastic.  Colourful scribbles. 
Leather trimmings.  Red and green.
Made in Italy.  Designer pricing. 
OMG.  Completely tacky.

Oh someone please tell me this isn’t Prada. My favourite brand. 

What were they thinking?

Cute comic T-shirts & bags

Thanks to ally bean’s very interesting entry about shopping for clothes which highlights the gender difference when it comes to buying apparels, I chanced upon Natalie Dee Store, selling T-shirts and tote bags with comics designed by Natalie. 

Very cute designs and the T-shirts which cost US$16 each, come in three series: Toothpaste for dinner, Natalie Dee and Married to the Sea.  All available in different sizes for both sexes and most importantly, she ships internationally.
