Luxury ice cream brand Häagen-Dazs has launched its largest campaign to date in all its key markets around the world including Singapore and I was honoured to be part of the hand selected guest list.

We were invited to the exclusive P’ Club penthouse for a specially curated experience designed to captivate the attention of all the senses. Every aspect of the party was inspired by the superior craftsmanship, innovation and attention to detail and quality that lies at the heart of Häagen-Dazs since 1961.

To introduce the new ‘Secret Sensations’ pint that combines creamy ice cream with hidden pockets of sauce, Häagen-Dazs collaborated with Zachary De Git from the Tippling Club. Recently named Bartender of the Year 2013 – Singapore by Diageo, Zachary created a series of ice cream cocktails that integrate the Chocolate Fondant and Crème Brulee flavours. The cocktails are available at Tippling Club for a limited period. http://www.tipplingclub.com

I’ve recipes to share too, for those of you who’d like an experiment or two!

With the bestie having so much fun at the photo booth and sipping on an endless flow of ice cream cocktails and wine. Not to mention delicious canapés that went perfect with the drinks.

There was not a dull moment as we were treated to a burlesque performance, specially choreographed to ‘SpoonFul’, the track written by Belgium singer Selah Sue for the new Haagen-Dazs advert.

No better way to end the night than having a surprise, unannounced performance by UK singer songwriter Emmy The Great. We were also the first to witness Emmy perform her new single ‘Swimming Pool’ – the first new Emmy the Great song to be made public in three years.

Thank you Häagen-Dazs for this very special night. We had a blast!

Cool off with a touch of class this summer with the Aimer Swimwear 2013 Spring/Summer Collection

 I was honoured to be invited to a brand new swimwear line launched in Singapore at Vivocity.  Aimer Swimwear 2013 turns up the heat with their latest collection that consists of two sophisticated lines – My Beach Couture and Hollywood Glamour.

Housed in a very spacious and luxurious interior, I was spoilt for choice with their wide array of swimwear and lingerie. Some were bright and bold; perfect for this season. Others were timeless pieces in black and white and pretty crochet that will see you through any time of the year.

Fretting over how to pick the perfect swimwear? Consider seasonal trends, the occasion, and your body shape. Are you a trend seeker? Monokinis and crochet threadwork are all the rage, with bold neon accents and high-waisted bottoms being this season’s must-have.

If you’re on a beach holiday, comfy two-piece bikinis are perfect for mixing and matching, whereas stunning one-piece wonders are great for the weekend with your girlfriends.

Think about which aspects of your body you’d like to accentuate or draw attention away from. For the ladies who are worried about your thighs, side-tie bottoms are more flattering than elastic bands. Larger-chested ladies may consider halter tops for a tighter silhouette.

Some of my favourites for this sizzling hot Summer! Prices range from $59.90 per set to $399.90 and above for very intricate lace and crochet pieces. I love that Aimer caters to every beach babe’s whims and fancies, from bikinis to cover-ups to shawls.

Happy as a lark, lounging by the pool in Aimer’s latest stylish monochrome playsuit made in light georgette. The breathable material makes lounging in this scorching sun comfortable. Loving the simple yet sexy cami-style bikini under the jumpsuit too!

Aimer 2013 Spring/Summer Swimwear Collection will be available from May 2013 onwards,
at Aimer boutiques at the following locations:

1. VivoCity #01-138/139/140

2. The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, #B1-148 (closed for renovations and will reopen September)

3. Takashimaya Department Store, Level 3

Take your pick this Summer with Aimer’s swimwear collection now!
