Amour Chaleur

Christmas is my favourite festival season and hence I decided to share photographs of how Christmas is like in Singapore. It’s pretty easy to spot the arrival of Christmas in Singapore. The trees, trim shops, sales and special Christmas catalogues will start popping up. Everywhere screams “It’s Christmas!”.

This is a “How do you know Christmas is coming?meme and I’m tagging everyone who’s reading this post to blog about your personal experiences. I’ll love to know how you spot the Christmas season. Is it the beautifully decorated trees? Turkeys on sale? Trim shops or…? :)

    babe you really took in most of the decoration in Sg =) I went to Marina Square recently and theirs looks good too =) Though I have this feeling they use the same purple deco every year coz it looks really familiar.

    My favorite this year has got to be the teddy bear trees in Taka!! I saw them the other day and wanted to steal them!!! Every year, one of my favorite trees has got to be the one at NgeeAnnCity! The one u took a pic of =)

    A sign to me that Xmas is here is when they start playing Xmas music everywhere. I really really really love Christmas music.

    Also when my church starts putting up the Advent decorations =) It’s really beautiful and festive.

    PS babe your comments thing got a bit of problem with scrolling.. hmm

      Haha, I have some of Tampiness Mall. I’m heading to Jurong Point and some other malls to take Christmas shots over the weekends. :) Hmm, Marina usually uses purple decorations. I remembered that as well!

      The teddy bears trees are so adorable!

      I fixed the comments scrolling problem in the textarea already. Thanks for telling me about it! ;)

    It’s still November but the Christmas decoration is already awesome in Singapore!! :shocked: I wish Indonesia has decorated for Christmas since November too..

    O I really wanna do this “How do you know Christmas is coming?” meme on my site with my drawings. Hope I’ll get the time! ;)

    btw, are we allowed to take pictures inside a shopping mall there? I mean, no security guard? I was afraid to take pictures inside Takashimaya back then when I was visiting Singapore.. :blush:

      I’m so excited to read about yours and your drawings! :D

      It is okay to take photographs inside shopping malls in Singapore. However, there are some shops that do not allow photography (like special gift shops etc. I know a shop at the top floor of Ion Shopping Mall doesn’t allow video or photography). They usually put signs outside their shops and in that case, avoid taking photographs near the shop. Otherwise, it’s definitely all right to take photos in malls. I always do that! :D

      There are security guards but seriously I don’t think they mind. Many people take photos in the malls as well. Unless we create inconvenient for others, the guards will usually ignore us. :P
