Store front |
I was very fortunate to get an invitation from Irene Ang of Fly Entertainment for this launch.
The truth was that I would love to meet her in real life, spend some time talking to her as she is one of people I look up to and am inspired by.
So as she tweeted about her events, I took the chance to raise my hand and say ‘me! me! I want to go!!’
Invitation |
I got my friend +Tiffany Yong to RSVP too so she could go with me to the event as she was a much social and much out-going person than I am, so I felt very comfortable speaking and making friends with people at the event with her by my side.
I thought that since she’s really into acting, and she could just take the chance to meet people in the same industry; well, it’s the same for me as I am too working my way to get myself either published or into a scriptwriting gig. She’s an angel!

The pampering begins… |
After the store has officially opened, we were treated to an after-party at ion Sky, an observation gallery at the 55th floor of ion Orchard Mall.
Jazzy Snazzy |
We were treated with live jazzy saxophone solo at the doorstep of ion Sky.
He definitely had set the mood for relaxation! I felt so comfortable and pampered, like a Star!
Like a Star! |
We took turns taking photos at the backgrounds like this..
I wished I was wearing a Philip Stein watch on my hand when I took this photo!! :S
Yummy food!! |
At the after party, more wine, drinks and fabulous canapés were served.
You can tell by the lack of photos that it was so delicious that I ate it all before I could remember to snap a photo.
I love the scallop, truffle mash potato, tofu salad, and the fruit tarts!
They were sooooooo yummy~
The Skyline |
The skyline from the 55th floor of ion Sky is truly spectacular, however the pictures I took just couldn’t do justice.
Limited Edition Watch! |
I found my favourite watch:
This limited edition all handmade Philip Stein watch!!
Only 25 pieces world-wide, this watch is painstaking hand crafted by the watch maker themselves, each piece alone takes 3 months to make!
There is of course a price tag to match such delicate craftwork:
$25,000!!
Well, it is too expensive for me.
However, one can dream big right?
Who knows? In the future, I may own one of these great well-being, limited edition timepieces.
That’s a goal I’ll look forward for.
We managed to speak to Irene before we left the place.
Although it was a brief meeting, I was able to see how her team work together to pull off this fabulous event.
Photo Credits of Fly Entertainment |
I actually managed to take a photo with Irene in front of the store before it opened, however, Tiffany’s laptop broke down and all her photos were lost. 🙁
I didn’t use my cam then because I didn’t want to hold Irene back from her work.
However, thanks to Jeannette and Irene of Fly Entertainment; they sent me a copy!!!
Finally, I want to thank Irene for the fabulous evening!
It was truly an eye-opener.
