La’S Alo Yoga Drops In Singapore, Chez Vous Glows Up, And More Socal Style Vibes!

LA’s Alo Yoga Brings Hollywood Fitness to Singapore

Straight outta Los Angeles, the celeb-favorite activewear brand Alo Yoga has landed in Singapore, setting up shop at the luxe Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands. Known for its studio-to-street fits that rival SoCal’s favorite Lululemon, Alo is all about blending high-performance gear with red-carpet-ready style. Think buttery-soft tees and flirty A-line dresses that scream Malibu beach workout vibes.

This 3,030 sq ft store is Alo’s latest Asia stop after Seoul, rocking a minimalist aesthetic with bright lights, warm oak touches, and pops of greenery. You’ll find everything from men’s Conquer Reform Crewneck tees ($95) to women’s Aspire Tanks ($81) and the Airbrush Streamlined Dress ($180) - perfect for hitting the yoga mat or brunching on Orchard Road. Plus, they’ve dropped their exclusive Wellness System for Asia, featuring clean beauty products for skin, face, and hair.

Want to check it out? Swing by B2-42 at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands (10 Bayfront Avenue) and channel your inner Hollywood fitness guru. It’s the kind of spot that’d make even a Venice Beach yogi jealous.

Chez Vous: HideAway Gets a Glam Makeover

Over in the heart of Singapore’s shopping district, Chez Vous: HideAway is serving fresh looks after a stunning revamp. This fan-fave hair salon, part of the Chez Vous family since 2018, has ditched its old-school Instagrammable rooms for a more elegant, grown-up vibe. We’re talking warm wood finishes and private pods that feel like a luxe escape straight out of a Beverly Hills spa.

The Instagram crowd may have matured, craving privacy over selfies, and HideAway listened. Say goodbye to quirky jellyfish projections and hello to a sophisticated setup inspired by their upscale sister spot, Private Space. They’ve also rolled out a game-changing 15-Step TrichoFusion Hair Service - a scalp and strand protection ritual built into every color, perm, and smoothing service at no extra cost.

This protocol is next-level, with pre-service laser therapy, oxyinfusion bubble masks to fight scalp aging, and EMS microcurrent boosts for product absorption. Prices start at $239 for color transformations and $339 for texture services (haircut included). Pop into 14-04 Ngee Ann City Tower B (391B Orchard Road) and get that SoCal glow-up.

“We wanted to evolve with our clients, giving them a space that feels both private and pampered, just like a luxe LA hideout,” said a Chez Vous spokesperson.

Bolon Eyewear Brings Futuristic Flair to Punggol

Chinese luxury eyewear brand Bolon, part of the EssilorLuxottica fam, is taking over Singapore’s heartlands with a sleek new store at Waterway Point in Punggol. This marks their fifth spot in the city, joining boutiques in Wisma Atria and Suntec City. The store’s polished, futuristic design - think wood and granite displays - mirrors the cutting-edge style of their opticals (from $199) and sunnies (from $159).

Their SS25 Optical Range features premium titanium frames like the Sintra ($299), Salzburg ($259), and Lucerne ($259), described as light as a Cali breeze. The sunglasses lineup is just as hot, with trendy picks like the rimless square-frame Tenet ($229), wraparound Dune ($229), and classic cat-eye Shadow ($229). It’s the kind of eyewear you’d spot on a Hollywood star cruising down Sunset Boulevard.

There’s even a discreet room for private eye tests, and until the end of September, you can snag 15% off your purchase. Head to 01-20 Waterway Point West Wing (83 Punggol Central) to elevate your look with some serious West Coast cool.

Le Labo’s City Exclusive Drops a Kyoto-Inspired Scent

September is here, and for fragrance junkies, that means Le Labo’s City Exclusive collection is back in full force. The Brooklyn-born perfume house, founded in 2006, rolls out scents inspired by specific cities - only available globally for this month. And for 2025, they’re paying homage to Kyoto with a vibe as serene as a Topanga Canyon retreat.

The new Osmanthus 19 captures the delicate osmanthus flower, layered with incense, lavender, and woody notes, honoring Kyoto’s artisanal soul. Japan’s influence on Le Labo runs deep, with their first international spot in Tokyo’s Daikanyama in 2007 and the cult-favorite Gaiac 10 scent. Their Kyoto flagship in a traditional machiya townhouse is pure inspo.

Priced at $235 for 15ml and $540 for 50ml, these full-sized fragrances are up for grabs from September 1 to 30 at Le Labo stores. Snag one and let your scent game transport you from LA to Kyoto in a single spritz.
