HER NAME is X-Wen. And she is a Singapore-based blogger of all things beautiful…that’s why she’s blogging about us! *shameless self-promotion*
Anyway, one week ago, X-Wen came shopping at GDO and fell in love with a gazillion outfits. She spent three hours at the shop and had loads of trouble deciding which pieces to get!
Click on the link below to read X-Wen’s tips on buying vintage, and all about her Fash-tastic romp at GDO.

WE JUST bought… an absolutely fabulous 1950s teakwood and glass showcase to display all our jewellery in the shop. It used to belong to a watch seller in Bras Basah back in those good ole days, so we were told. Oh heavens, we love it! A vintage house for all our new vintage jewels. Yum yum yum.

HI! WE are Hsiao Ying and Kyra, the girls behind Granny’s Day Out.
We tried to take some nice photos of ourselves, you know. Tried to look like underwater dolls.
Alas. We were no underwater beauties. Instead, we looked like underwater clowns!
So sad. We’d better stick to selling clothes.
Here are a few of the very many things that can go very wrong in an underwater photoshoot.
Enjoy! 🙂
– The End –
BE OUR FRIEND.
