Fans of the beloved market, rejoice! Expat Fairs is back with a new location at PasarBella and a fab lineup of independent vendors
Our idea of the perfect weekend goes something like this: a long and lazy lie-in until 10 o’clock, followed by leisurely brunch and a cuppa joe at our favourite café. Ah…bliss. And the only other thing that’ll really hit the spot? Shopping, of course!
From 11 to 13 September 2015, that’s exactly what we’ll be doing at the highly anticipated Expats Weekender Fair. For the first time ever, the shopping bazaar will take place in the bustling marketplace of PasarBella @ The Grandstand for one weekend every month until December.
With the long weekend coming up, we can’t think of better way to spend it than a leisure shopping jaunt to Expats Weekender Fair. Start off the morning with hearty English breakfast at The Providore and then kick start your retail therapy by heading over to Expats Weekender Fair (located near James Butchery & Co). With an amazing lineup of 20 vendors, there’s plenty of gems to be found here; everything from artisanal food products to handmade jewellery, accessories, unique gifts, home wares, and so much more.
Get ready, fashionistas: you’ll definitely be spoilt for choice. Looking to update your wardrobe with sophisticated pieces? Arete Goods is your best bet: the local label is chock-full of sartorial stunners like breezy shirtdresses, chic ballet flats, and leather accessories. Before jetting off to an exotic vacay, make a pit stop at Indii Breeze and check out its collection of beach-ready casual apparel – from kaftans to kimonos, maxi dresses, and playsuits. Jewellery lovers; you definitely won’t want to miss out on Iveline Gems & Jewelry’s stunning range of exclusive fine baubles made from semi-precious gems.
Every parent wants the best for their little ones, which is why NAÏF is a must-visit. The skincare brand offers specially formulated babycare like shampoos, lotions, and diaper creams, which are nourishing and 100% safe for sensitive skin. As if that’s not enough, Expats Weekender Fair also offers plenty of household gems for your abode. Spruce up your living space with pretty kitchenware and vintage accessories from 2 Peas in a Pot and decorative objets d’art from Iggy’s Crafts.
It wouldn’t a weekend fair without some tasty artisanal fare to tantalise your taste buds. Get your coffee fix with Elissio Beverages‘ range of premium Nepresso coffee and if you’re feeling peckish, don’t miss out on delectable imported snacks like chocolates, candy, and potato chips from TUCK.
