There's something quite nice about this photo. From the always inspiring a pair and a spare.  Did you see our updated addition to the blog (bottom right)? We've brought back the blogroll and plan to update it every month so you get a changing palette of fun blogs to visit. Watch this space(!).

We spotted the cutest Lavender martini recipe at Style Me Pretty Living, and are thinking very very seriously about organising a martini party at home. How nice to have something to dress up and drink up for!

Shop update: Off to Marrakech!






Did you catch our newest update on Facebook, or better yet dropped by the shop over the last weekend? If you did, you're probably one of the ladies who picked up our new DUSK Tasseled Earrings (we hope you're loving your pair!). If you haven't had the chance to, we can't wait for you to have a try: The delicate earrings have an incredible way of brightening and prettying up the face.

Made with semi-precious gemstones, 18K gold-plated hooks, gorgeously coloured tassels, and coated with heady Moroccan-accented romance: To get you in the same mood, you HAVE to see this beautiful series of Marrakech travel by blogger Jamie Beck. And read more about Marrakech on wikipedia right here.

The new DUSK Tasseled Earrings, $58, are now available at soon lee. Do join us on our facebook for more product updates: www.facebook.com/soonlee.singapore

Shop update: Swing, sing, and dance in May!




If you haven't been round to our shop over the last weekend, you have to come by soon to see our new Irregular Choice shoes. As usual, they are joyful, colourful, big (HUGE!) in quirkiness and style. We love how they easily perk up a classic black dress, and jazz up just about every outfit we put on. 

This collection, we have them in cute sandals, a gorgeous black Flapper-inspired velvet number, and the iconic look for this season: Beautifully bunched flowers on heels. What can we say? It really is time to swing and dance away! Prices range from $169, to $249.

Speaking of which, have you caught the trailer for upcoming film The Great Gatsby?

We highly recommend reading the book before going for the film adaptation. Spoilers aside, it's always very big fun reading classic books: We love the old language styles, the dramatic premises, and beautiful old world setting. Plus how cool to learn about the historical context of a time so different from ours. There's a great link on the 1920s Flapper girls here if you're interested.

And how can we not plug our very pretty goods at soon lee? We've got the original book (a beautifully illustrated version published by Penguin), we've got the shoes (Irregular Choice of course!), and we've got the jewellery (have you seen/tried/purchased a Hadasity necklace?). 


Come find us if you want a roaring twenties makeover! We promise fun times and great music. Also, photos of Carey Mulligan in this post, from the latest issue of Vogue, and trailer of the movie here.
