The buzz: This is one of the biggest fashion and health and beauty tenants at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, spanning 20,800 sq. ft. of space, offering various store exclusives for the ladies.The vibe: Very spacious and well-lit, and the staff are supremely helpful (those who say Singapore service is lacking clearly haven’t been here). There is a smiling service staff on hand at every counter (ready-to-wear, shoes, accessories, beauty and even a nail spa salon) to advise on style tips and make recommendations.The goods: Too many to mention. We spotted cult favorites like the coveted Repetto ballet shoes, separates by Korea-based Eryn Brinie and Paris-based Tila March, funky pumps by Irregular Choice and standalone corners for classic brands like Ted Baker and Coast. The beauty-conscious can also get their fix on almost every beauty brand in town (we’re not kidding), including exclusives from DrGL and Officina de’ Tornabuoni, and get their precious nails done at nail spa Vedure.Why you’ll be back: Considering that the rest of the mall is pretty high-end, Robinsons is a good bet for ladies who’ve maxed out their cards but still want to look good.
