Last month my husband and I travelled to India to visit friends and
complete the Golden Triangle circuit through Delhi, Agra and Jaipur.
Excited as I was, it quickly became clear that my Singapore wardrobe of shorts,
sundresses and tank tops wouldn’t fit the bill for the more conservative dress
in northern India. After a frustrating day on Orchard Road left me void of any
appropriate clothing, I happily recalled a Ribbon and Roses
event I attended last year and immediately jumped on the website. One visit to
Marina a few days later and I was set!
All of the items
that Marina helped me choose were not only perfect for India, but also
beautifully made and versatile enough for almost any climate. Paired with
jeans, shorts, leggings and cardigans, I look forward to wearing them on trips
home to the US as well as on future holidays in SE Asia.
One unexpected but
fun anecdote from the trip was that my friend in India quickly fell in love with
my Ribbon and Roses items. When I returned to Singapore, Marina very kindly
helped replicate my previous shopping trip, which I boxed up and sent to India.
My friend (who has since received the box) is relishing her new items, and we
both enjoy the thought of our shared wardrobe being worn in such different
parts of the world!
Lots of Love
