Huney'Z World: Henry Holland

Hi Huneybees,

House of Holland, a brand name that's not a stranger in the London Fashion scene has teamed up with Elegant Touch to create a range of bold, fashionable nails. Designer Henry Holland has been known for his strong, colourful and playful prints, with a touch of his renowned sense of humour and uniquely irreverent aesthetic, and this range of House of Holland Nailed by Elegant Touch does not fall short on that.

The stiletto shaped nails are "housed" in a kaleidoscope layout, showing off the on-trend fashionable nails. What I have is the monochrome with 3D dots - 'Polka-Dot It', and knowing that I'm a colourful person, this was a change for me. But the 3D polka dots are so fun to look at and play with!

In the set, not only do you get the 10 displayed nails, there are also another 14 more with/without dots for you to play around with the designs. There's also a nail file, instructions booklet and a nail glue.

So, once I've filed my nails to the right length, I picked out the designs I wana do on my nails and lined them up accordingly. With just 2 drops of the nail glue on the back of the nails, I pressed it hard onto my own nails, allowing it to dry and stick on.

I've always been skeptical about fake nails as past experiences of them coming off easily just by getting something out of my bag, is simply too irritating. I usually have to carry the nail glue around with me and it was too much a hassle!

But when I got the 'Polka-dot-it', I have to say kudos to the glue! I had the nails applied for almost a week and I was attending events, rummaging through my bag, taking photos, instagramming, typing and not a single nail showed any sign of falling off!

I simply love them and everyone were loving them, a lady even stopped me whilst I was shopping to snap a picture of my nails. Hehehe! And did I mention, they go so well with the leather punk style, stack up on those studs as well!

The House of Holland Nailed by Elegant Touch are available in 6 designs (Get Nailed, Classy Nude, Face Ache, Zig Zag Stardust, Polka-Dot It & Geek Chic) and you can find them at selected Watsons Singapore store at the price of SGD$13.90.

Have fun nailing it!

Hi Huneybees,

L'ILE AUX ASHBY by Rayson Tan recently held a pop-up store event to launch their latest collection - Prodigy of Colours. Many would have known the brand by their exclusive and extensive collection of plastic accessories. Created by Designer Rayson Tan, the brand's bright and colourful fashion statement has made its stand in local fashion, allowing its wearer to stand out amongst crowd.

With Designer Rayson Tan.

L'ILE AUX ASHBY (pronounce as "L" "OR" "ASH" "B") is a fashion label for the discerning urbanite;
designs that will encompass three distinctive attribute - quality, detail and exclusivity.

The Products of L'ILE AUX ASHBY are delicately made with full emphasis details of a work. All these
designs are limited in pieces, giving access to a priviledged minority. This allures the exclusivity of L'ILE
AUX ASHBY. These Collection pieces are not about flaunting the size of that stone, but a celebration of the
pleasures of fashion expressed in L'ILE AUX ASHBY way.

The collection is like an eruption of colours, playing with prints and different styles. Alot of thought have been put in to create a slimmer and sharper silhouette. Like the dresses shown above, prints coming in from the sides, not only make one slimmer, the gathering of more prints at the waist, makes the wearer look like she had a smaller waist. Very nice visual play and definitely a statement where ever you go....

For those we do not want to be too loud, simply get any piece of the accessory and you can be a star too! Hehehehehe... Simple black dress and a multi coloured clutch, you will immediately stand out from the rest...

Even the store was decorated with beautiful drawings handled by Couture Troopers. Colourful hand-drawn robots with old school snacks.

Secret Chamber Nails was also there to showcase their designs by Rebecca Chuang. I love the neon brights and irregular graphical designs on each nail...

Herman Yap's a very successful graphics designer and had his works featured on several illustration books. This collection on the wall is inspired by Rayson Tan's works. It's already a fashion spread on its own!

This is also the first time I got to see embroidery combined into an illustration. A very clever execution, it's always feels good to see something new and learn something new...

And last but not least, shades to go with the fashion statement clothings and accessories. Check out these quirky and interesting shades from Henry Holland!
