This is NOT a diamond ring, but it is equally sparkly, and looks AS EXPENSIVE. I have always loved vintage-inspired jewellery design. They are full of details - The motifs, the gemstone of the rarest colours, and the charming old-world feel. Surprisingly enough, vintage-inspired pieces are very easy to wear as the design is timeless.⠀ ⠀ The same goes for this vintage-inspired ring from @lecainegems. It took inspiration from the bygone era and handmade in expert detail: A stunning, 1.5-carat D color VVS1 round brilliant cut moissanite sits atop a yellow gold band with art-crafted motifs on the side and encrusted with more moissanites for that extra bling. Swipe to see the lovely detailing! ⠀ ⠀ I think a custom Moissanite ring will make a great gift on Valentine’s Day, Anniversary, Birthday, Graduation and more. It is cruelty-free and environmentally friendly too. ⠀ ⠀ Also, who doesn’t love a sparkle that doesn’t make our finances crumble? ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #lecainegems #moissaniterings #vintageinspiredrings #yoursingapore #engagementrings #customrings #jewellerysg #gemstonesg #gemstone #singaporejewellers #love #ring #isaidyes #thecalmchronicle #sparkle #moissanite #반지 #반지사랑 #쥬얼리 #빈티지반지

A quiet Christmas but we prefer it this way. A pot of stew, fuss-free food and good wines with people that matter. I have a full-time day job while juggling the blog and this account. So time is precious. Holiday means connecting with loved ones and I loathe preparing food in the kitchen during time like this (though I love cooking) - that explains why I love quick meals like pasta, and stew. Especially the stew dishes — Minimum preparation, throw them all into the casserole and pop it in the oven, and then it’s wine and catch-up time ⠀ ⠀ For gatherings with larger groups, I’d go for takeaways and only from places that I have personally dined in at, or chefs that I know. @tablescapesg is one of them as I know Chef Armando and his team would lovingly prepare the takeaways the way he prepares food for his family. ⠀ ⠀ I don’t know how did I get myself so busy during year-end this year 🤷‍♀️ but for working moms / working daughters-in-law, if you have any up-coming gatherings, you may want to check them out. The Acqua Pazza (Oven Baked Fish) $ 168 (3-4kg, serves 6-10persons) is my pick!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #lastminutefestiverescue #festivetakeaways #festivetakeawaysg #tablescapesg #pasta #acquapazza #Christmas #celebration #singapore #면스타그램 #파티음식 #이탈리아음식 #pheuroneatswell #thecalmchronicle #foodieparty

My New Year's resolution is to be more optimistic by keeping my glass half-full with either Chianti, Malbec or Rosé ⠀ ⠀ 2019 has been a good year. I started a new career. Work has been great, stressful but fulfilling. I hit most of the “KPIs” that I set out to achieve. Continue to do pilates, did a few aquaspin, connecting with old friends... been to the fashion City Milan, the Eternal City Rome, the Amalfi Coast, the Floating City Venice, the City of Dreams Macau, and the Maldives. Also, hitting a personal milestone. Thank you 2019. I am so looking forward to another year of growth and possibilities. 2020, I can’t wait to see you!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #bye2019 #hello2020 #maldives #grandparkkodhipparu #pheurontravels #pheurontravelstories #thecalmchronicle #beachlife #indianocean #newyearresolution #wineforlife #rosewine #thursdayisland #maldives #몰디브 #몰디브여행 #그랜드파크코디파루

NEW on the blog: Things to do in Macau 🇲🇴 And one of them includes visiting this huge mansion - The Mandarin House. ⠀ ⠀ I used to think Macau is only for those who enjoy casinos. However I had a two-days window to check out the city during my recent business trip and explored what the city has to offer beyond the casino. ⠀ ⠀ With its well connected public transport system, diverse food scene, architecture, family and kids friendly facilities, rich culture alongside painstakingly preserved historical sites, Macau is worth a visit even if you don’t fancy gambling!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #pheurontravels #thecalmchronicle #macau #travelmacau #mandarinhouse #마카오 #마카오여행 #鄭家大屋 #travellogye #casadomandarim #hiddengemsinmacau #澳门打卡景点

Did January pass by that fast? It feels like February is doing the same! Here’s me on the second day of Chinese New Year, wishing everyone a healthy and fulfilling Rat Year! (better late than never!)⠀ ⠀ Love this super comfy cotton tent dress from @oursecondnature in mustard yellow. Adore this timeless colour, fresh and surprisingly modern! It complements many colors, a great piece to add to my weekend wardrobe :D ⠀ ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #oursecondnature #cny2020 #cnyoutfit #homesweethome #thecalmchronicle #singaporelabel #shoplocal #shopresponsibly
