Sizzling deals at Wisma Atria
May 30, 2007
The NewPaper

IT’S style or nothing at all – that is the mantra Nur Farhana lives by.

It was hard to dispute that when The New Paper met this glamour queen.

The former The New Paper New Face 2003 finalist and current Deal Or No Deal suitcase girl is tall, sexy and poised.

As the 23-year-old fashionista sussed out the best on offer at the Great Singapore Sale at Wisma Atria, we tagged along to dissect her deals.

1. Topshop

This was our first stop. Amid racks of colourful clothing, Farhana went sniffing for bargains.

Her pick was a glitzy grey strapless romper going for a song at 30 per cent off.

With Farhana, style never shouts, it screams.

The romper just accentuated a slender waist and added a touch of sophistication.

She explained her choice: “It’s retro and something unique. I don’t follow trends. My style is quite eccentric.”

What: Strapless romper
Usual Price: $119
GSS Special: $83

Offers at Topshop this GSS come up to 50 per cent off.

Topshop is at Wisma Atria, Parkway Parade, Marina Square and Vivo City. Opening hours from 11am–10pm.

2. Pazzion

Clothes maketh a man, but heels complete a woman, we say. Farhana immediately homed in on a pair of black wedges.

She said: “Wedges are my favourite and the colour goes with anything.”

Far from being chunky, a pair of wedges gives definition to a pair of well-toned legs.

What: Black wedges
Usual Price: $76
GSS Special: $38

Offers from Pazzion this GSS comes up to 70 per cent off.

Pazzion is at Wisma Atria and Marina Square. Opening hours are from 11am – 9.30pm.

3. Tannlines

It’s hard not to be amazed by how much those three triangles of fabric, aka bikini, can set you back by.

But it’s time to indulge, especially when the long-awaited discounts are rolling in.

Farhana’s choice was a brown bikini (below) that complemented her skin tone. Couple it with a funky bag (bottom) and this outdoor gal’s all ready for the sun.

What: Katherine Sliding Halter Top
Usual Price: $229
GSS Special: $183.20

What: Defunct Bag
Usual Price: $129
GSS Special: $90.30

Offers at Tannlines this GSS comes up to 60 per cent off. Visit the main store at Wisma Atria. Opening hours from 11am to 9.30pm (Mon to Sat) and from 11am to 8.30pm (Sun).

4. Flesh Imp

Farhana is a jeans and T-shirt girl, so it’s no wonder that she chose a T-shirt with black and pink motifs.

So how does this T-shirt-and-jeans girl feel about wearing those dresses for the Deal Or No Deal gameshow?

“I am kind of used to it as I do a lot of runway shows and shoots. I do deck myself out as and when I want to feel pretty.”

Since she wears T-shirts both before and after a fashion show, those Flesh Imp T-shirts ought to come in handy!

What: Femme Top Naughty
Usual Price: $32.90
GSS Special: Two for $30

Offers at Flesh Imp this GSS comes up to 70 per cent off. Flesh Imp is at Wisma Atria and the Heeren. Opening hours from 10.30am to 9.30pm.

5. All Watches

Time and tide waits for no man, so hurry down and grab the latest designer watches before they are snapped up!

Watches make good accessories and go a long way in jazzing up your outfits.

Farhana chose an athletic-looking black Alfex watch that matched her sporty personality to a tee.

“It’s a practical choice as I am an outdoors girl.” she said.

What: Alfex Watch
Usual Price: $680
GSS Special: $340

Offers at All Watches this GSS come up to 50 per cent off! Alfex is at Wisma Atria and Albert Complex. Opening hours are from 11am to 9.30pm.
