Who can resist the minimalist charm of what Muji offers? From beautifully made clothes that are perfect for Singapore’s climate to stationery worth flexing on your desk, a stop at Muji is a must.

BOTF
With summer being the default season in Singapore, there’s no such thing as having too many sneakers and flip-flops. BOTF stocks only the best two brands for this genre of footwear: Superga and Havaianas. The wide range of colourways from both brands means that you can pick something unique – mustard yellow Supergas for the person who is expressive and bold or cool metallic bronze flip flops for the beach bum in the group.
