Long time no see
It's been a while since we last blogged. So much has happened and we've all been busy in our own different ways. But Fluff has always been at the back of our minds. We thank you all for having been so patient. That said, we have received quite a few e-mails asking us when we'll be updating the Fluff website and uploading the new designs that we've been promising. We're very touched and it's nice to know we've been missed. So here's the good news, the updates will be up by early September. So watch out for it!

Janice's Black Tie Do
A dear friend of ours desperately needed accessories to go with a full-length, V-neck black lace dress that she was wearing to her company's annual awards. Given less than a week to work on the jewellery designs, here's what we conjured up - a glammed-up string of pearls and a bracelet with a big dose of lace and lots of shine.

Just for Julia
A lovely girlfriend passed us two lovely brass camera charms and asked us to jazz it up for her. Here's what we did:

Going Maad
December Maad was a blast! It was a full house - in terms of both stalls and shoppers - and there was a strong festive buzz in the air. The best part was, we the Fluff designers got to do quite a fair bit of Christmas shopping ourselves, thanks to our neighbours Luvdolls65 who graciously helped us man the stall while we disappeared to satisfy the shopaholic in us. :P
Designers we heart:
- Amy Woo: A lovely animal lover who makes the prettiest ceramic pots, bowls, ringholders, mugs, wind chimes. And if you're really lucky, some of them come with her trademark bunnies perched on them. Really nice!
- Alice K: We met this gregarious lady at the Singapore River Bazaar and were thrilled to catch up with her at Maad. She's a wonderful designer and seamstress. Her current range of smocked baby doll tops in kimono fabric are simply hot! Just as girly are her clutch bags! We couldn't help getting a whole lot customised for our girlfriends as Christmas pressies. It's the perfect gift for a babe!
- Bridget Rose of Goblin Market: We almost overlooked her stall which was in the dark-dark area in front of the information counter. But thank God we caught a glimpse of this shiny blue pinafore hanging from the ceiling and moved in for a closer look. That particular piece didn't fit us but we ended up trying a whole lot of other stuff (tops, dresses, scarves) and totally busted our budget for the weekend. Bridget is such a talented designer and artist. What we love about her style is it's edgy yet feminine. Her clothes are funky yet very wearable and still somewhat girlish without being sweet. We soooooo heart Bridget! *swoooon*
- Knotty Bicsie: Betsy's bangle wristlets are simply adorable! We bought up the last ones she had on Saturday intending to give them away as gifts but couldn't resist keeping them for ourselves. Looking at her cool stuff makes us wanna take up knitting ourselves!

Fluff at Suite Stuff
A piece of long overdue news. Fluff accessories are now available at *DRUMROLL*
Suite Stuff
53a Haji Lane.
Mon-Fri 2pm-9.30pm
Sat 12nn-10pm
Sun 2pm-8pm
(Haji Lane is right next to Arab Street. Get off at Bugis MRT, walk pass Raffles Medical Hospital and Golden Landmark Hotel then cross the street in the direction of Arab Street. Haji Lane is the small street next to Arab Street that looks slightly dead at first glance because there isn't much traffic in there. But therein lies the beauty - you can walk on the tarmac! And there IS life in Haji Lane - go on, take a peek in the shops. You will be enthralled.)
Do check out the boutique in hip and happening Haji Lane where many entrepreneurial young people have set up shop, many of them selling fashion wear and accessories designed and made in Singapore by up and coming designers. You will be amazed at the treasure trove this renagade street has become. Fashion items here range from vintage and retro to avant garde, designer and edgy.
We simply love shopping in this stretch of colourful shophouses in Singapore where time seems to have stood still. It's just very quaint and Olde World. It's also refreshing that every shop has its own individual style and range of products, and isn't part of some fashion chain found everywhere else. It's great for people like us who're oh-so-bored with shopping in malls where the mix of shops is identical. I mean, what's the point of opening so many shopping centres when it's only the same big-name stores that can afford to pay those exorbitant rents..it only makes for boring shopping!
We certainly hope Haji Lane stays individual and unique for a long time to come and not get caught up in the wave of commercialism. Fingers crossed too that developers don't barge in and screw up the place with their spruce-up plans (worst still, en bloc sale of the shophouses!) that inevitably result in higher rents that up-and-coming designers can't afford.
Anyways, Saturday's a good time to visit when all the stores are definitely open and there's a nice manageable crowd that gives a buzz to this artsy-fartsy street without the place getting too maddening.
You MUST drop in at Suite Stuff (on the second floor a door or two from House of Japan on the ground floor) to chat with the owner, funky Stan, who's a musician and we hear she sings beautifully. Browse and buy her vintage dresses available in limited pieces for each design. Look, see and touch selected Fluff designs that are stocked at Suite Stuff and maybe buy a pair of earrings or two plus a dangly necklace.
Then have lychee martini or gula melaka gelato at Pluck ice cream parlour a few doors down the street. And if you're still feeling hungry, tuck into Middle-Eastern/Egyptian fare at Cafe Le Caire further down the street. The braised lamb is to-die-for. We also love the black coffee with mint. ;)

FB rocks
Oh, and another reason we've been absent here is that we have been over at Facebook. Join us there if you have an account. Look for the group fluff: handcrafted jewellery.
If you are not yet on Facebook, what are you waiting for? It's time to catch up with technology. There're no two ways about it. Jump on the bandwagon or get left behind...but be warned, Facebooking is highly addictive. Soon you will be sleeping less, going out less, staying home more, neglecting work...you get the idea.. ;)

Christmas shopping!
One more thing, do try to send in your Christmas orders early so that we can fulfill every single one of them. We would hate to disappoint you if designs ran out of stock.
A little bit of yuletide tidbit: Last year, one customer ordered 12 pieces of jewellery for her closest gal pals. That record still stands.
