Feel Like a Star at These Celebrity-Approved Salons in Singapore

Say hello to your new travel statement piece with LOJEL’s first-ever seasonal color drop for the Cubo luggage and a new collection of Packing Kits to organize your travel essentials. 

Offering a lively twist to invigorate your summer aesthetic, the carry essentials brand launched the Cubo Sangria, a color that blends the richness of scarlet with a touch of earth brown, evoking the warmth of the season. The Cubo is one of the brand’s bestselling models, adored for its sleek flat-top, trunk-style design, and now, in its new limited color, which is about to elevate your travel gear to new heights!

This new luggage hue will be available at their e-store from May 15 and in select stores (Suntec City & Takashimaya) from May 22.

LOJEL is in the business of making your journeys easy, stylish, and more organized. The Ordo Collection embodies that very mission, featuring multi-sized Packing Kits for any capacity. Designed for daily trips or long-haul adventures, the collection comes in 3 Packing Kit options and 2 pouches to match your packing personality and needs. It will be available from May 29 online and in select branches. 

The Travel Packing Kit (S$110) is a 5-pouch set with diagonal wide openings for easy access. It includes one extra-large pouch, two large pouches, and two medium pouches, customizable for any trip length.  

For organization on the go, the Everyday Packing Kit (S$70) has two extra-small zip-top pouches and two small-sized pouches in a hybrid of mesh and opaque materials that provides instant visibility or more privacy for your delicate items. Meanwhile, the Compression Kit (S$90) features compression zippers that minimize bulk and maximize luggage space for larger items, perfect for your seasonal storage needs. 

Also, part of the collection are the Toiletry (S$55) and Essentials (S$60) Pouches, designed to organize and protect your smaller items and toiletries. They have a puffy exterior for additional protection and are the ideal supplementary packing pieces that go well with the Packing Kits or as carry-alone accessories.

With Love, a curated pop-up retail space at 23 Keong Saik Road, will be closing its doors on May 25, 2025, following eight months of championing women-led brands across Southeast Asia and beyond. 

First launched in September 2024, "With Love" was created as a collaborative space to support small businesses in a big way, connecting thoughtful, women-led brands with a community of shoppers who value intentional design and human stories. Since its opening, the pop-up has featured over 30 brands from across Asia Pacific, offering a meaningful retail alternative rooted in community and care. 

“With Love started with the belief that we could do more together than alone – that by sharing space, stories, and resources, small brands could grow in a way that’s intentional and sustainable. My hope is that this isn’t just a pop-up, but the beginning of a new kind of retail movement in Southeast Asia and beyond,” said Mary Knickrehm Kumar, Founder of With Love. 

“This final month is a celebration of how far we’ve come, and every time in the store represents the dream of a small business owner. As we close this chapter, we’re exploring ways to continue uplifting this community in a more lasting way.” 

To celebrate its closing chapter, With Love has welcomed three new brands to its line-up, each reflecting the shared values of intentional craftsmanship, founder-led design, and thoughtful fashion: 

• Tiffany Studios (Vietnam): Romantic womenswear handcrafted by expert tailors in Hanoi, rooted in traditional construction and modern elegance.
• Wustler (Malaysia): Luxurious yet approachable sleepwear and loungewear, made with buttery-soft fabrics for elevated everyday comfort.
• Paper Palette (Singapore): Softly tailored, nature-inspired pieces designed for comfort and creativity, inspired by quiet moments and the natural world. 

These latest additions join a thoughtfully curated showcase of brands across fashion, accessories, and lifestyle that have helped shape With Love’s ethos of community and collaboration. 

They join other brands such as Fondest and Fig & Tonka from Malaysia, KAMI, Pithecanthropus, and Nakedsol from Indonesia, Cariño and Artisanat Handmade from the Philippines, Annibody, Anaphe, and Parallel 51 from Hong Kong, and Paradigm Shift Label and The Individual Society from Singapore.

As more shoppers seek value-driven alternatives to mass retail, With Love has carved out a distinct space – one built on storytelling, connection, and collaboration. By reimagining traditional retail, With Love has created access and opportunities for small brands, while fostering a new kind of community-led shopping experience. 

Shoppers are invited to visit, explore the new arrivals, and be a part of With Love’s final chapter of this meaningful pilot – celebrating a new wave of women-led and independent brands from the region. 

Also, don't miss out on copping your favorites right before they leave, as With Love is holding a Closing Sale with items going up to 70% off!

Get the scent that suits your lifestyle and your mood. 

In a fusion of olfactory art and neuroscience, Coty has launched the newest adidas “Vibes” fragrance collection, which is not just a fragrance, but an attitude, a mood, a vibe. 

Made in collaboration with world-class perfumers, “Vibes” addresses the different occasions and needs of everyday life, from athletes during downtime to fashion-forward active lifestyle consumers, while acknowledging the influence of scents on human emotions. 

Inspired by the sport and cultural heritage of adidas, this new collection of six exciting Eau de Parfums (EDP) has been meticulously crafted to elevate mood and emotional well-being, while capturing and matching the dynamic energy of everyday life. Each bottle is a canvas of color and mood — a tribute to the dynamic spirit of the adidas brand and designed for everyone. 

Recognizing the fast pace of modern life, the pressures, and the struggle to stay in the moment, “Vibes” rises to the occasion, pushing the boundaries of fragrance. Users are treated to a variety of scents designed to make them feel good while also matching their current mood. 

Whether they want to Power Up, Relax, or Escape, there is always a Vibe occasion to match, immersing customers in an enthralling and long-lasting olfactory journey. 

“Vibes” Eau de Parfums have been found to elicit positive emotions. Consumer testing revealed that at least 81% agree it makes them feel good, and 85% agree that it improves their mood. 

A Scent for Every Mood

The adidas “Vibes” Eau de Parfum collection includes six scents. Here are the “vibes” you should pair these perfumes with: 

Looking to escape? You can choose between the fragrances "Full Recharge" and "Happy Feels," designed to create adventures in your everyday life and build your self-esteem and confidence to make the most of every moment. "Full Recharge" embodies the uplifting feeling of escapism through its refreshing and earthy ingredients of cedar leaf and clary sage. "Happy Feels," on the other hand, gives feelings of bliss with its zesty notes of grapefruit extract and jasmine notes. 

For relaxing moments, "Chill Zone" and "Get Comfy" are your best bets, inspiring you to be comfortable in your own skin, not letting any external pressures in, and encouraging you to take breaks from the everyday hustle. "Chill Zone" gives a feeling of peace through its notes of lavender and vanilla that evoke a feeling of relaxation and warmth. "Get Cozy" is comforting, with its notes of vanilla and mandarin. 

To power up and energize your mood, "Energy Drive" and "Spark Up" keep you grounded and down-to-earth. Always on the move and never standing still, you’re sure to be given an unstoppable burst of energy. "Energy Drive" has cardamom and spicy pink pepper twists, while "Spark Up" offers an explosive duo of sweet orange & black pepper to invigorate and enchant, while still encouraging you to perform at your best at everything you do. 

The range is designed for all, providing scents that allow for individual expression.

Porsche fans, a new experience is opening right in the heart of the Jewel Changi Airport. 

Porsche Asia Pacific announced that the “Porsche at Jewel” is set to open in the second half of 2025 last Feb. 6, complete with rotating car displays, café treats by Baker & Cook, and Porsche Design and Lifestyle collections to be displayed for tourists and local mallgoers. 

This plan strengthens Porsche’s partnership and synergy with Changi Airport group, following its past collaborations like the “Driving Tomorrow” pop up experience in 2021, the Vexx-painted Vision Gran Turismo concept car display at the Jewel Rain Vortex fountain in 2024, and Porsche’s continuing support of the “Changi Millionaire Experiences” promotional campaign. 

Porsche aims to take advantage of Singapore’s growing popularity as a global luxury tourism hotspot and hub in the thriving Southeast Asia regions, as well as to create another immersive touchpoint for its customers and fans in Singapore, alongside other recently announced automative retail innovations such as the Porsche Studio Singapore and the Porsche Privilege Programme. 

“We are happy to bring our partnership with Porsche to a new high and elevate the visitor experience at Jewel and Changi Airport. Together, we have delivered many novel pop-up activations here at Jewel over the years; the addition of Porsche’s first permanent point of experience not only injects a new category to Jewel’s retail landscape, but more importantly, further anchors our luxury offerings. 

When “Porsche at Jewel” opens later this year, visitors can look forward to a transformed and elevated experience,” said Mr. James Fong, Chief Executive Officer, Jewel Changi Airport Development.

In May 2024, Porsche announced that they are slated to build a Porsche Experience Centre in Singapore by 2027, beside the Changi Exhibition Center. It will be Porsche’s 11th experience center and its first one in Southeast Asia. The experience center is set to feature a 2km handling track, themed exhibitions, and immersive racing simulators.
