my interest in tokidoki comes and goes.when tokidoki for lesportsac collaboration came to an end with the vacanze print in 2007, i thought that would also pretty much put my non-stop lemmings to an end. recently, news of more tokidoki coming closer to singapore somewhat re-ignited my flame for tokidoki :)
aside from the upcoming comic con singapore in august 2009, Play Imaginative - singapore based toy and pop-art concept designers - will be opening their flagship retail-cum-artist-gallery store @ ILUMA bugis next week!
"Play Imaginative is set to open its first ever concept retail store in Singapore! Launching on 6 June 2009, the Play Imaginative store is a true platform for creativity. Located at the new and shiny shopping mall, Iluma, it's more than just a retail space. The six hundred square feet store is part gallery for the latest and uber-exclusive designer toys, as well as a curated collection of merchandise by world famous artists and character designers..... " (read more)to get a headstart, apply for your very own Play Imaginative membership at SGD20 now! members get to enjoy 10% discount off purchases made from the retail store, plus you get to choose from 7 exclusive designs for your membership card (i want the tokidoki one!!). early signups before 4 june 2009 will even get a special welcome gift pack with a 4" Strawberry Gum TO-FU figurine, a Gloomy Bear notebook, and a TO-FU Oyako gift bag... but i really only care for the tokidoki membership card.. hehehe ;)so... anyone wanna come along on my exploratory trip to iluma bugis next week? :)

ooh.. i would so get these in a heartbeat - a tokidoki skin (USD15.95) for my iphone! *swoon*..i bet these are selling like hotcakes.. on my, this was just launched this week and 1 of the 3 designs (discoteca) is already out of stock! yikes!!! i wish some local store would sell this here, or shall i just order the inferno one from the tokidoki website?lemmings lemmings..
i'm not a big fan of solid perfume cuz the scents usually don't last long enough, but that doesn't mean i don't get drawn to them... just look at how beautiful those solid perfumes look in the mini, compact all-too-alluring packaging - sometimes a pendant, sometimes a ring, a keychain, a jewelled container, decorative doll-head etc. ;)
most solid perfume comes packaged in a tin/mini-tub like container where you have to stick your finger in and then rub some onto your skin but this clinique trio looks just like crayons :) reminds me somewhat of stila's lip glaze stick , only these go on your pulse points instead of your lips.
cute stuff, would work great as stocking stuffers.
i am always impressed with M&M's introductions of new flavours, packaging, limited edition promos, special tie-ups, toys, gifts etc. every now and then. check out their newest experiment - strawberried peanut butter - comes in limited edition "transformers: revenge of the fallen" collectors' pack... even the candy coating looks a little different, speckled with tiny bits of pink, cute :)
i wonder if these have arrived on our shores.
even though i like most things pink, i'm not sure if i'd be a big fan of the strawberry-ness in it... will give it a try nonetheless :)
ps: looking forward to "transformers 2" movie.. the trailer looks gooood!
