It has not been a good week. I mean, it hits me emotionally everytime I scroll my Facebook or IG. The jump in the death tolls, the total infected cases, the lockdowns, the crumbling stock market, and economy... ⠀ ⠀ So many things are happening around us. The anxiety, uncertainty, and sadness is overwhelming. I was browsing the photos on my phone and was reminded of the lovely people that left a great impression during our honeymoon in Italy. ⠀ ⠀ I wonder how is Angelo, the Airbnb host, and his mother coping? Luka the talented photographer who recorded our honeymoon in Venice through his lens; the guys at El Magazen, a small little tapas restaurant we encountered on our last night in Venice, and that friendly lady at the hotel reception who introduced us to amazing restaurants and bars in Milan... ⠀ ⠀ These people, together with the beautiful scenery and delectable food are part of my fond memories in #Italy. And I realize how we have taken simple things, for instance, the ability to travel freely, and with a peace of mind for granted. For a long while, we lost a sense of awe and gratitude. Like many has mentioned this global crisis is a test of our system, values, and humanity, it is also a wake-up call that life is not guaranteed to continue each day. The world will never promise to tilt the way that works best for us. ⠀ I hope all of us will eventually find normalcy in the unknown. At a time like this, it is important to do our part to protect ourselves and loved ones. I can’t wait to travel again but for now, let’s keep calm, wash our hands frequently and stay at home. #pheurontravelstories #pheurontravels #pheuronxitaly #venice #milan #venezia #milano #elmagazen #ponterialto #wanderlust #workfromhome #stayathome #covid_19 #여행스타그램 #여행가고파 #이태리 #이탈리아 #이탈리아여행 #베네치아

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

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

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
