By Invite Only's 2nd Anniversary

Fir and I braved the downpour on Thursday evening to attend BIO's 2nd anniversary and launch of their new collection 'The Higher Being' held at A Curious Teepee.

The collection comprised of pieces made from precious stones and was modern and simple. These pieces looked better in reality, reflecting light off their faceted surfaces. Glimmering and sparkling, each piece of jewelry was eye-catching in its own way.














Our favorite pieces were laid out on a bare wooden table, a huge rainbow quartz stones served as pendants to gold chains peppered with tiny triangles and teardrop embellishments. From a distance, these black rocks looked almost normal, but as I came closer, they seemed to have a magical property, shining in a different colour when I looked at it from different angles.












Prices for jewelry adorned with larger precious stones range from about $100 to $350. However, The Higher Being collection is an extensive one, having more affordable pieces that start from $69.





Cupcakes and vodka were provided for guests at the party, as they mingled in the cosy cafe area at A Curious Teepee. We hung out with our friends from Fever Avenue, munched on cupcakes and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, and lounge-y tunes courtesy of the DJ at A Curious Teepee. Unfortunately, both Fir and myself had to rush off and I didn't manage to buy myself a lovely crystal necklace. Looks like I'm going to head back there to get my hands on one of the pieces soon.

Set on you: September

This September I've got my eyes set on...

1. The PS1 is in my opinion, the epitome of classic it-girl cool. Worn over the shoulder or carried by the handle, this covetable style will stamp every look with urban glamour.


2. Block heels are the way to go, and ASOS' PATIENCE peep toes with its suede look upper and bow details is subtly feminine.


3. Really, who needs gloves in Singapore's heat? But I adore this pair of leopard print gloves from H&M so much that I'd wear them regardless of the climate.


4. Topshop's ring reminds me of a sunken treasure at the bottom of the ocean. Don't you think the gold plated trimmings remind you of corals? And who knew that green stone, tortoise shell and gold could look so chic together?


5. Aficionados of directional style will love Kelly Wearstler's handcrafted brass bangle studded with bold pyrite cubes. Wear it solo or stacked with other tough-luxe pieces to inject everyday looks with utility cool. In case you didn't know, Kelly Wearstler is responsible for the iconic look of the Viceroy hotels, the author of three beloved books, and her incredible interior design work is feted in all the best magazines. This fall, she'll be bringing her unique, oft-emulated vision to the fashion world with her 80-piece ready-to-wear collection, all available at Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus and Net-a-porter.
