What Sassy Mama Wants – Top Ten Boutiques Edition

Rev up the credit cards, mama! Singapore’s longest-running (and one of Sassy Mama’s favourite) fairs is back for Boutiques: The Week-End Edition on 25 and 26 April. Popping up at the F1 Pit Building, this bi-annual shopping extravaganza features over 120 of the Lion City’s best independent brands.

We’re positively chomping at the bit for this unmissable event, and being the planners that we are, we’ve done some of the legwork for you and selected our Top 10 stalls you should make a beeline for. With the Summer hols right around the corner, we’ve picked the perfect pieces to keep you, the kiddies and your home looking cool in the sweltering heat!

Whether it’s invites to birthday bashes, receipts or tickets, say goodbye to rummaging with this sleek and stylish display.

Feroza Designs’ Anya Dohar
We don’t need to remind you, mama, that Singapore is hot, hot, hot! As our AC bills ever mount, it can be difficult finding the right kind of bedding that is both comfy and light-weight. Enter Feroza Designs’ dohars. These Indian summer blankets are made up of three layers of soft cotton muslin, making them soft, snuggly and (importantly) breathable. All designs are block-printed by hand, and we’re particularly obsessed with this girly pink Anya print, perfect for slumbering little princesses.

Bo-Ya Creation Mimosa Kikoy Towel
We admit it, we love versatility! There’s something so satisfying about finding something that serves more than one purpose and the Kikoy towels from Boya Creation fit the bill perfectly. Part beach towel, picnic blanket, bath towel, table cloth, sarong and bed throw, these terry-cloth lined towels are the ultimate summer companion for busy mamas. Plus, did we mention each towel has an inside pocket for phones or keys and Bo-Ya Creation provide a personalised embroidery service, so there’s no chance of anyone claiming your towel as their own!

Emma Laue Zac Shorts
Dress your little man in some super stylish threads this summer. Just because it’s roasting outside doesn’t mean munchkin can’t still look cool. These Zac shorts exude a casual confidence with an eye-catching print. Made with a medium-weight cotton and available in navy and white, these shorts will become a staple in junior’s closet, we guarantee!

Frolik Sea Urchin Swimsuit
You may recall us waxing lyrically about adorable local swimwear brand Frolik after our interview with founder Andrea, but we can’t seem to get enough! These brightly-coloured, sophisticated and perfectly printed suits are not only a fashion statement, they also provide UPF50+ protection, so you can rest easy that munchkin stays protected from the sun’s harmful rays. It’s difficult to choose our favourite (let’s face it, we want to buy up the entire collection), but this whimsical sea urchin is a standout for our beach belles!
