something old, something new.

while most Singaporeans makes a shopping pilgrimage to orchard road every weekend, i prefer to do mine on weekdays. i'm not exactly the type who enjoys the hustle and bustle of elbowing crowds just to check out the sale at Topman. to me, shopping is a leisure not a necessity. i enjoy threading from store to store looking for quirky items to add to my collection. style should never be deprived of individualism.

a place that i feel exudes a quirky charm is kampong glam. its is filled with eclectic trinkets that never seems to bore me. with arab street and haji lane being part of kampong glam, it is definitely a great chillout spot to leisure your afternoon away.

this time around i brought maddie along as i was looking for some fabrics. along the way, we settled at this quaint cafe alocated along haji lane for some root beer float.





i cant remember what this cafe was called but the setting was really nice and the owner was such a sweet lady.


like i said, kampong glam has a diverse mix of the old and new. so the theme for my photos in this post is 'something old, something new'. as you can see the pictures above has been edited to look like an old photograph. and the next set is suppose to exude a futuristic look.





this was taken at the cafe. we were seated at the table which was along the road and maddie happened to have these 3D glasses with her. how random.






ciao.
