In case you forgot, the uber worthy Uniqlo +J collection has arrived on our shores and are being snapped up before you can say “What?”

Yes! The lush, pretty simple yet elegant designs that suits ever closet and style, easy to match, simple yet elegant luxe wear from Jil Sanders + Uniqlo collaboration is finally on our shores, at Uniqlo’s third branch in Singapore, and also known to be its largest flagship store here.

While I was there yesterday, the queues were maddening and confusing and irritatingly long, and I can’t help but almost shouted at people. But hey, the staff are nice and friendly, but the customers (read loud and arrogant, alright, AUNTIES), were horrible, snatching and flipping things like it was the market.. Bleah!

The 42.195km (comparatively la huh, incredibly long) long queue to the fitting rooms and cashiers were.. omg! and as with all Singaporeans who do not know what treasure is, all were flocking towards the cheap discounted jeans (which I also wanted but could find it in the right size, sadly) and sweaters.. (grab so many for what, this is Singapore leh, “winter” will be over soon lo.). But, also, like most typical Singaporeans with no taste not much of a fashion sense to speak of, the entire section of +J collection was almost left barren. What a pity. But all the better for me!!!

Posh, designer class blazers, sweatshirts, work tops and bottoms were all on display, with an air of elegance. These beautifully simple pieces in basic raw colours were going for less than S$200!! Wow wow wow!

But being a poor student, as much as I wish I can afford, but unfortunately, not at the moment. My bad debts are chasing me… Nono.. So, I shall wait.

Here I am sharing with you this awesome find, please do go take a look, but, don’t buy all ok! Leave a few pieces for me:)

On a sidenote, on the pre-opening night (after the Uniqlo From Tokyo to Singapore fashion show), truckloads of guest and journalists and VIPs were transported in buses from Ritz Carlton Millenia to 313@Somerset, and upon arrival, they all made a beeline for the +J Collection. (And guests and media were each given a $100 voucher.)

Damn! I was meant to be there. I just plain forgot. Thanks to my heavy workload. Alright. Gotta go do my assignment and continue dreaming about owning the gorgeous suit from +J!

(To take a peak at the collection, look at my previous post about the +J Collection, all pieces are available now!)
