Mamas, we’re absolutely spoiled rotten with the biannual Boutiques at Fort Canning fair! This Singaporean staple burst onto the scene in 2002 and since then has been a powerhouse in helping promote local independent businesses, with over a hundred incredible stalls for you to peruse. They even do a lot of work with charities such as HOME and Sanctuary House, who you’ll be sure to see at the event. This year’s Spoil Those You Love, Spoil Yourself edition is hosted in the fab F1 Pit Building; you’ll be able to get your hands on top of the crop kids’ clothing, home décor and even some cheeky threads and bling for mama. Don’t forget to kick back and relax at their new chill out lounge, with nibbles by Violet Oon’s Kitchen!
