Boutiques at the Pit

Fashion, Singapore

It’s funny how I used to be obsessed with shopping, but now that I’ve been living in Singapore, that obsession has sated.  Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy shopping but I definitely don’t shop the way I used to.  I blame it on Singapore, really.  I find shopping here to be quite cumbersome and everything is spread out in one mall or another.  So, when Ana invited me to attend the Boutiques at the Pit, I jumped at the chance.

The Boutiques at the Pit is held bi-annually at the Formula One Pit Building.  It’s a massive space hosting over a hundred vendors that from what I hear, are carefully selected.  The boutiques that come range from kids clothes to accessories, fashion and home decor.  I mean, would you turn down the chance to go? And the fact that there was free champagne and wine, um, hello! I’m there!

It’s kind of cool how multi functional this space is.  Come September, this space is used for it’s main purpose – Formula One cars, their drivers and their crew.  But tonight, it was more female friendly.  My other friend, Bella, got there first and she greeted me with a glass of champagne.  I ran into my friend, Chun, who was manning one of the booths and I chatted with him until Ana and Rose showed up.  Once we were all there, we hit the floor.

Fashion, Singapore Fashion, Singapore IMG_2620 Fashion, Singapore Fashion, SingaporeI was honestly getting baby fever with all the cute baby/kids decor on offer.  How cute are those teepees? And I have an obsession with stars, so that star pillow is just too cute for words. I was seriously decorating my non-existent baby girls room.  HA!Fashion, Singapore Fashion, SingaporeThere were various accessories stalls which I am a big fan of.  I always think you can dress a simple outfit with amazing accessories.  But I didn’t get any.  For the most part, a lot of the accessories were quite dainty and delicate – I am more partial to big, statement pieces.  Fashion, Singapore IMG_2618 IMG_2621

There was also booths selling candles and body care as well as chocolates, but I don’t seem to have a picture for the chocolates.  Oh well.  Really, there were so many different booths, it was hard to not get overwhelmed.  I have to say though, it all started to seem kind of samey after a while.

All in all, it was a fun night out and a reminder that Singapore is not as boring as people think.  There are definitely loads of events going on throughout the year.  I look forward to the next one, let’s see if they have different stuff!

Always looking for the next adventure; the next thrill. One day she will find home, most likely where she started off. But even then that's a convoluted answer!

Hi, I’m Julie

Welcome to Jewels Wandering! I'm a serial expatter. Wait, is that even a word? I have been moving from one country to another since I was born, having most recently moved back to New York City from Singapore. We all have a story to tell and mine has definitely been an unconventional one. Let's be friends!
