01 | Cartier’s Guirlande de Cartier bag gets a nano update
As the mini bag trend continues to ride on through the season, Cartier is jumping onto the bandwagon with a smaller version of their iconic Guirlande de Cartier bag. Measuring 120mm long by 195mm tall, it’s got just enough space for your essentials (read: phone, keys, credit card). Apart from the iconic Cartier red, the bag also comes in black and green versions and can be worn as a shoulder sling or carried as a handbag.
Available at all Cartier boutiques and at cartier.sg.
02 | Brunch is calling at Caffe Cicheti

Situated in the city centre at South Beach Tower, the latest addition to the Cicheti family of restaurants offers up bright flavours inspired by the coastal cities of Italy. Nom on savoury corn and zucchini fritters that sit atop an unctuously glazed slab of bacon, or tuck into skewers of seared Hokkaido scallops that come paired with a light and zesty salsa verde.

Pieces within this collection feature heavenly bodies rendered across modernist shapes made for everyday wear. The moon, rendered in stunning mother-of-pearl, shines brightly next to her starry companions on a black onyx night sky, while the sun bursts forth in brilliant yellow gold across pieces including earrings and a timepiece.
