Toca Boca


The camera roll on my iphone has been overwhelmed with images of these new hair cuts by my four-and-half-year old. Toca Boca has been keeping her entertained and creative with rather clever apps of the hair salon. Colour it, chop it, wash it, blow dry it, shave it all off, and start all over again with magic drips of hair growth solution... complete with all the sounds of the salon and uhhhs and ahhhs from the styled customer... Love it! :)

Beijing Surprise with a 5 year old


After our recent 10 day trip between three countries with my four-and-a-half year old, I really admire Jeanne Darst for her courage or madness to bring her five-year-old Hudson to Beijing to study Chinese simply because he wanted to learn the language and possibly drawn to the allure of the ancient culture.

With so many friends who have travelled to China, be it Shanghai or Beijing to learn the language, I feel fortunate to be able to speak and read the language and appreciate its beauty. I should only work harder to inspire my own daughter to learn the language and speak it with pride.

Jeanne's interpretation of Hudson's desire to master a very difficult language, is impressive. How remarkable her journey takes her as she recounts their two attempts to the Great Wall of China. Sometimes seizing the moment and going with the flow of instinct and adventure is just so thrilling, we feel alive. Really enjoyed this lively article. Thank you Vogue (May 2013)!

Nobody does it better than Hermes...

Play badminton much?

Check out the amazing windows display at Hermes Takashimaya Singapore.
I applaud the vishal merchandising team for such creative interpretation in 3D of flowers, rainbow and colour.

Shuttle cocks to create a superb visual impact. Understated elegance! Love it!
