he next time you hear the word “tee pee,” you’d think not only of cute little Indian boys but also this store in Orchard Link, Singapore. A CURIOUS TEEPEE is a 2,700 sq ft. store slash café slash bar and basically your typical I-wannastay-here-and-just-hang-and-buy-everything-I-see place. Stocked with cutesy things like crayon rings by Timothy Liles, Maison Martin Margiela Objects, We Are Handsome body suits, Stolen Girlfriend Club dresses, Swedish label Sandqvist, and menswear brand Sundays, we don’t see why not. Its high ceilings, long tables, accommodating service and, of course, faux tee pee in the middle of the store just draw you in. Which is an absolute thing, considering the store aims to spread a “living a life more inspired” mantra. With the yummy treats and its famous Cucumber Martini already spreading word in the grapevine, we can’t help but ask, “Is all this hype making you curious?” If it does, best believe this place will feed you more curiosities to satisfy your alternative cravings.

o suit every style and personality, 25 designer brands like Prada, Versace, D&G, DKNY, Oakley, and Ray-Ban in various styles: aviator, goggle, cat-eye, wayfarer, rimless, and round are all stocked in one place—SUNGLASS HUT. The iconic global destination for sunglasses with almost 2,000 locations worldwide has finally opened its first boutique in the Philippines. Talk about hut in the city! But unlike other optical shops in Manila, Sunglass Hut’s display cabinets are unlocked, making it impossible for all the sun-soaked and stylish people to resist from getting with the retailer’s mantra: “put them on.” If you don’t know what the latest styles are or what pair looks good on the shape of your face, a very accommodating and knowledgeable staff will assist and advise. And if you don’t have enough dough to shell out for these designer sunnies, try your luck at the casino near the store, then come back for the eye candy.
