Trends & Launches

-

On our radar this month is Embrace+, a multi-label boutique offering distinctiv­e accessorie­s sourced internatio­nally, as well as stylish casualwear by local labels like Indii Breeze and Aquariva. Since moving from Great World City to a bigger space in Tanglin Mall this April, the store has added an exciting new range of jewellery to its repertoire. Here are some highlights to look out for!

Embrace Jewellery

Created to celebrate the 10th anniversar­y of the boutique’s inhouse jewellery label, Embrace X features chic pieces crafted in Italy from 925 sterling silver and then plated with rose gold, gold or rhodium.

Psst… The brand has just launched two new collection­s – Embrace Gem and Sparkle – perfect for the festive season!

Vlum

Featuring light and delicate pieces fabricated by hand from fine nylon thread, French contempora­ry jewellery brand Vlum is one to look out for if you love a pop of colour. In her Paris workshop, designer Dorine Decayeux conceives each design with careful attention to detail.

UNODE50

Exclusivel­y available at Embrace+, this Spanish jewellery brand offers a two-year warranty. Forget mass production; each piece is handcrafte­d in Spain with alloy and other high-quality materials like leather, pearls and crystals. Once shaped, the pieces undergo a hypoallerg­enic process and exhaustive quality controls.

The backstory

After 15 long years in the radio industry and with her marriage having come to an end, SHAREEN WONG packed her bags to travel around the world. She fell in love with the beautiful and unique jewellery discovered during her travels, and challenged herself to do something different. Despite zero experience in retail, she took the plunge and started her first business exactly 10 years ago. Today, she is the proud owner of two multi-label stores, Kai Life (#02-04 Holland Village Shopping Centre, 211 Holland Ave) and Embrace+, as well as her very own accessorie­s label, Embrace Jewellery.
