It goes without saying that shoes can either break an outfit, or raise it to a whole new other level – which explains why footwear could possibly be my favourite element in putting together a look. Evidently the perspex heel trend has been floating around for many months now, and after numerous gruelling shoe hunts, I can safely conclude that perhaps I've found my perfect pair. Surely you can never go wrong with a pink suede and clear heel combo, right?<br />
<br />
So on this particular day with excellent weather, I took them out, threw in other shades of pink, my favourite<a href="http://www.revolveclothing.com.au/jewelry-accessories-hats-hair-accessories-hats/br/0bb621/?navsrc=left?&source=sg-bl-pale&utm_source=sg-blogger&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sg-bl-pale" target="_blank"> hat</a> and hoped for the best. I dare say it worked out well, for you can't deny a good deal of outfit compliments from strangers – especially on my choice of footwear.<br />
<br />
It must be, then, that these shoes are my lucky charm. And with this, I'm off to Taiwan in a day or so – catch you guys on <a href="https://instagram.com/willamazing" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Willabelle" target="_blank">Facebook</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/willamazing" target="_blank">Twitter</a>!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here down under, it's relatively clear that when the sun's out, skin's out. But more to the point, skin cancer is not fun and I'll have you know I avoided the fiery fiend for as long as I could. I still recall this one time we had a day out to the beach years ago, and while all my gal pals paraded in bikinis and frolicked in the sun and sea, I rocked up in a long-sleeved polo and with an umbrella no less – I kid you not. Someone actually squinted and asked what on earth I was doing, to which I replied, "..avoiding skin cancer and a tan." Now you guys know how much of a bright young lass I truly was.<br />
<br />
<img src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/2/1621/24789299432_6983b69a9c_o.png" /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
But surely I couldn't avoid the sun forever. In the past year when I visited Bali and Bora Bora, one straight after the other, I learnt that a fake tattoo tan is really not cool and that the sun wrecked absolute havoc on my skin. What you should know is that UV sun radiation damages the top layer of skin and thus disrupts the skin’s ability to make its own natural moisturising factors.<br />
<br />
Now we come to what I know, that prevention is better than cure, so make sure to always thoroughly slap on body moisturiser that contains SPF – on your face, body and everywhere – because radiant, flawless skin is always in season. And if the damage has already been done, as was the case with me circa early 2015, then it's still not too late to turn to a reliable whitening body moisturiser. After all, it's what underneath your clothes that really matters, right?<br />
<br />
So here's skin survival 101: Never forget the whitening body moisturiser. And if it doubles up as a sunscreen with firming benefits, like NIVEA's body serum, then you're in luck.<br />
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>NIVEA Instant White Firming Body Serum SPF33 (Day Use)</i></span><br />
<br />
I never understood body moisturisers that made you feel like you were swimming in oil, so it's godsend that NIVEA's whitening body serum is on a whole different game. For that quick fix and instant radiance, lather on the Instant White. The serum contains a special concentration of Vitamin C for fairer skin, while COenzyme Q10 firms up saggy skin and has microlight reflectors that make your skin look radiant immediately.<br />
<br />
It's so important to apply lotion or serum with UV protection because your skin certainly needs that kind of shield from the sun's damaging rays.<br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>NIVEA Night White Firming Body Serum (Night Use)</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On that hectic girl's night out, or in for that matter, you'll notice that your skin loses moisture during the hours of darkness, and even more so in an air-conditioned room. It comes as no surprise that ever since I discovered skin cells regenerate twice as much at night, I've upped the usage of body serums containing both Vitamin C and E that aid in skin rejuvenation, making it visibly hydrated and evenly toned. Simply put, your skin repairs while you snooze – it doesn't get better than that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What I like most is that NIVEA's whitening serums absorb into skin quickly with a non-sticky finish. Put the pedal to the metal and start investing in your canvas, because no amount of high shine clothing, lustrous accessories and show-stopping heels can wholly conceal sad looking skin.<br />

Call it the <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/pbz3ffv" target="_blank">Wang gang</a> effect: our wonderboy Alex has finally ushered in an era of breaking the rules at his Fall collection that showed inside a church merely a few days ago. A nod to his beloved bad girls with no care factor, it seems we should follow suit. 'Tis the summer for long sleeves, coat slinging and knee high boots?<span style="font-size: x-small;">*</span> Why not.<br />
<br />
Just as timely that I've added this lush <a href="http://rstyle.me/~iA-7Ch8c_" target="_blank">calfskin baby in latte</a> to my off-duty wardrobe classics. The mini version is perfect for everyday use, but if you're the type of person who throws just about anything into your bag, I'd recommend the <a href="http://rstyle.me/~iA-7Ch9B_" target="_blank">duffle version</a> – still armed with luxe pebbled leather and rosegold hardware no less.<br />
<br />
Quite naturally I paired my <a href="http://rstyle.me/~iA-7Ch8c_" target="_blank">new favourite bag</a> with layers of camel and a dash of white. Is there anything more sensuous than looking like your favourite hot chocolate drink with marshmallows?<br />

<br />
The first thing I am struck by when I catch a whiff of the new Gucci Guilty EAU is its warm aquatic accord and sweet lychee notes. Unmistakably, the new flanker is a smoother and lighter interpretation of the classic Guilty, and breaks tradition by conveying a more delicate, romantic attitude. The fragrance features a milky and delicate heart of lilac, while the floral signature of the original has now been tinged with wild strawberry. Most of all, I love its musky base that emulates the sultriness of bare skin and awakens a daring sensuality that is very much the essence of Gucci.<br />
<br />
I previously met the wonderful team in <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/09/new-york-with-gucci.html" target="_blank">New York City</a>, and this time we were gathered in Tokyo for the unveiling of the evolved scent – an appropriate choice for its Japanese onsen experience that triggers fond thoughts of relaxation and deep inner warmth. From the careful curation of our food menu to the artfully personalised Gucci Guilty EAU sensuality spa, it seems the highly celebrated fashion house knows that the finer details are the ones that count.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
At our welcome dinner that took place at Enjyu Restaurant, we gushed over Gucci makeup products, swimming with whales and how Japanese strawberries are <i>the</i> best strawberries. A food coma and a very comfortable sleep after, I <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BA1XtQ2x-ao/" target="_blank">shined and polished up</a> in silky burgundy for the Gucci Guilty EAU Workshop where Gucci's very own fragrance meister gracefully presented the concept and aroma behind the scent.<br />
<br />
Admittedly the masculine version of EAU is also real dreamy. It opens up with top notes of noble woody orris, creating a heady contrasting aromatic blend of lemon and bergamot, all the while bringing an intriguing infusion to the orange blossom signature of the original scent. And at the base, a suave patchouli and musk blend creates the scent's timbre. Swoon.<br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My time spent with the team revealed that the Gucci Guilty EAU individual is authentic and intoxicating, one who lives in the moment. EAU is essentially an empowering and sensual scent, and as an author once said, the fragrance of romance is gratitude. Nothing says I love you like saying I love you. And as we already know, Gucci Guilty EAU develops with body warmth, so here's an excuse to kiss, hug and get intimate – all in the spirit of Valentine's.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
It should come as no surprise that the world's most sprawling city, Tokyo, is a dynamic urban landscape well-known for its cutting-edge and high-tech efficiency. Quite frankly too, the teeming metropolis is a place of hidden wonders where you can find an ancient temple wedged between skyscrapers, or a tiny shrine down a suburban lane; the fantastic and futuristic beside the everyday. It must be so then, that the Marunouchi business district is the commercial heart not merely of Tokyo, but of all Japan.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Within arm’s reach of Tokyo Station, Ginza and the Imperial Palace,<a href="http://www.fourseasons.com/tokyo/" target="_blank"> Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Marunouchi</a> presents its most intimate property yet. The hotel's boutique rooms blend state-of-the-art convenience with timeless luxury, and I had the greatest pleasure of indulging in their inspirational farm-to-table French cuisine at their newly opened MOTIF Restaurant and Bar.</div>

The first thing I did every morning was gaze over the Pacific Century Place courtyard from my spacious room that had some of the best natural light situations. Certainly, floor-to-ceiling windows never let you down and it's important to note that the décor was just as ace. Think meticulous attention to detail – contemporary furnishings, leather canopies and Japanese-lacquered doors and tabletops. And as if a walk-in closet wasn't quite enough, the room's spacious en suite featured a deep soaking tub that functioned to drown out all my worries.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Surely it made sense to pay a daily visit to Ginza, one of the world's most prestigious shopping districts, since it was only a 5-10-minute walk. Here you'll find popular department stores like Matsuzaka-ya, Mitsukoshi and Matsuya among the array of high-street and luxury brands. Meanwhile if you've been itching to head towards Akihabara Electric District, the largest electronic shopping area in the world, it'll simply take you 4 minutes by rail. If you're more into apparel shopping and the busiest pedestrian crossing, however, the famous Shibuya district is only 17 minutes away by rail.<br />
<br /></div>

Now, we come to one of my favourite conversation topics that is food and so it is only apt to highlight Four Season's <a href="http://www.fourseasons.com/tokyo/dining/restaurants/motif_restaurant_and_bar/" target="_blank">MOTIF Restaurant and Bar</a>. Offering a breathtaking view of the iconic Tokyo station and the historical Marunouchi business district, the French restaurant embraces the spirit of modern voyage and echoes the hotel's unique backdrop where past meets the present.<br />
<br />
For dinner, I had their signature MOTIF menu prepared by Head Chef Hiroyuki Asano and Culinary Advisor Chef Hiroshi Nakamichi, and frankly it exceeded expectations. After all, the restaurant is founded on the core principles of esprit terroir – spirit of earth, and highlights included the scallop that was breadcrumbed with shiso, the mouthwatering sea urchin flan with bisque, and the presentable surf clam sautéed with udo risotto. A ten course culinary experience and an overly satisfied stomach after, I came to the conclusion that it simply is what it is: a gastronomic journey that is uniquely MOTIF.<br />
<br />
Thank you for your wonderful hospitality, <a href="http://www.fourseasons.com/tokyo/" target="_blank">Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Marunouchi</a>. Till we meet again.<br />

As you all know, I'm always one to shy away from wearing black. But on some days where you have to go places and get things done, and avoid small talk with people you run into, you can't deny that it lends itself nicely to an off-duty look.<br />
<br />
I also couldn't help but punctuate my get-up with accents of white and denim, and these <a href="http://www.revolveclothing.com.au/raye-beatrix-heel-in-black/dp/RAYE-WZ135/?d=Womens?&source=sg-bl-pale&utm_source=sg-blogger&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sg-bl-pale" target="_blank">laceup heels</a> are truly the cherry on top, for they add just the right amount of detail to an otherwise simple outfit.

When you find a contemporary watch that combines both classic British aesthetic and Swedish minimalistic design, you know you've hit gold. Or rose gold, for that matter. Established in Stockholm and London, Larsson & Jennings is an Anglo-Swedish label creating unisex watches that modernise classic style and take design inspiration from their Swedish and British roots.<br />
<br />
That is, they exist at the joining of the two; where Stockholm meets London, where classic meets contemporary and where minimalism reigns.</div>

<br />
And so it goes without saying that my favourite may just be their rose gold collection. I mean, how highly covetable is <a href="https://www.larssonandjennings.com/shop/saxon/saxon-liten-rose-gold-watch-womens" target="_blank">this</a>, <a href="https://www.larssonandjennings.com/shop/liten/liten-womens-rose-gold-watch" target="_blank">this </a>and <a href="https://www.larssonandjennings.com/shop/chain-metal/cm-rose-gold-watch" target="_blank">this</a>? It's much softer than yellow gold and makes more of a statement as compared to silver, so treat the blushed metal like a neutral and you'll be surprised by how well it goes with everything.<br />

As you've all noticed, or not, I've been over-wearing white lately and even though what probably comes to mind is an array of crisp and polished attire, it's really not. I've instead opted for weekend appropriate pieces, like a cap, cardigan and some distressed jeans, because of all the intense errand-running I've had to do before taking off to my next destination.</div>
<br />
What truly adds high shine impact and really takes the look to the next level though, are my glossy nail boots and the brilliant rose gold accessories, wouldn't you agree?<br />
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Whether allowing the ticker to contrast and stand out in an all-white ensemble, or simply letting it complement delicate textures and denim blues, you can't deny the timeless elegance it lends to any outfit.</div>
</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, at a respectable 40mm, the large-faced watch fits most wrists and still remains svelte. Your basic principle should be that if the lugs overhang the side of your wrist, the watch isn't suitable.</div>
<div>
<br />
So before you sniff out every rose gold watch ever existed to see if they fit, do realise I've made it real easy for you: here's<a href="https://www.larssonandjennings.com/shop/chain-metal/cm-rose-gold-watch" target="_blank"> one</a> to tick off your wish-list.<br />

<br />
Lilac is a colour I've grown to love over the years, and no matter how pale violet or intense it looks in any getup, it seems I will never tire of this sickly sweet shade. And why would I ever? Once your eyes get accustomed to this muted color with a pinkish hue, you'll realise how many years it actually takes off your appearance, or outfit for that matter.<br />
<br />
With a dear friend's wedding coming up, I happily dipped my toe into a highly romantic lace version of low-key lavender to calm my bridesmaid jitters and certainly, when easy breezy, floor-sweeping dresses are dominating the 2016 runways, you know you're doing something right. <br />
<br />
Let love and lilac in.<br />

<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">Brought to you by <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme</a></span></i></div>
<br />
And just like that, a new year has come upon us. Out with the old and in with the red, and today more than ever, I find it fitting to talk about an optimistic mission that is this: every woman who comes to <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme</a> to be more beautiful, always leave happier.<br />
<br />
Naturally, at the very heart of Lancôme’s DNA lies ultra-femininity, emotion, joie-de-vivre, happiness and beauty. It's truly hard to fault a spirit that asserts itself through the most beautiful purpose, and what better way to usher in the New Year than with the <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Best of Lancôme range</a>?<br />
<br />
<img src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5795/23819032185_26fc1f9381_o.jpg" /><img src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5762/23192220793_dc9e08a306_b.jpg" /><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme Blanc Expert Cushion Compact</a> (Limited Edition Cushion Case in Petal Print)
</i></div>
<br />
I'm no complexion makeup scientist, but I can tell when one surpasses all expectations to become a must-have. In this case, it only takes 10 seconds to perfection. Fresh and light as a fluid, portable and practical as a compact, unifying and blurring as a BB cream, Blanc Expert Cushion freshens, evens and protects the complexion from UV, leaving skin aglow with a velvety-soft radiance.<br />
<br />
When you take a closer look, the miracle of technology comes into play. <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme </a>employs the power of light, enriching the Cushion formula with pine extract – known for its depigmenting properties, so your complexion is left radiant and illuminated with transparent perfection.
What's also nifty to note is that the Cushion is ideal for reducing pores and surface imperfections, leaving skin texture visibly more even.<br />
<br />
Finally for photo-protection, the Cushion is infused with SPF 23/PA++ to shield complexion from UVA and UVB, to prevent formation of age spots. And here above I'm using their Limited Edition Cushion Case in Petal print, but their Spring 2016 one is just as adorable!<br />
<br />

</i></div>
<br />
And who could forget Lancôme's outstanding range of lipsticks that capture the quintessence of femininity through vibrant colours in perfect definition? Because intense colour has to be flawless, L’Absolu Rouge Définition fulfils the feat of combining colour, precision and comfort for instantly and lastingly beautified lips.<br />
<br />
My favourite shade of <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme</a> red is none other than <span style="text-align: center;">Le Carmin. This</span> pigment represents the legendary ideal feminine, and is undoubtedly the most smoldering and provocative of the L’Absolu Rouge Définition range.<br />

<i><br /></i></div>
</div>
High up on our leaderboard is <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme's best-selling </a>Advanced Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate – a serum that repairs and activates 10 key signs of youth, including skin texture, resiliency, elasticity, firmness, sagginess, fine lines, wrinkles, radiance, clarity, and skin tone. Its fresh, oil-free and lightweight texture quickly absorbs into skin without leaving residue.<br />
<br />
What you'll notice is that your skin will feel more refreshed, revitalized, and also look visibly healthier. Advanced Génifique is the first step to any beauty routine, for every age, every skin type, and multiple ethnicities. Mix a drop into your foundation to give a great glow to the skin, or put a small drop onto dry lips before applying lip liner and lipstick to smooth the lines on the lips.<br />
<br />
<span style="text-align: center;">Meanwhile, </span><a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme's </a><span style="text-align: center;">Advanced Génifique Yeux Light Pearl makes skin around the eye contour appear firmer and more rested. I like that it's engineered with a flexible massage applicator, as it helps reach the entire area around the eye with a highly-effective formula.</span><br />

</div>
I actually love sunscreen and cannot express the importance of having sun protection on your face. <span style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme</a>'</span>s UV Expert consistency is light and easy to apply, and in no way feels greasy at all. SPF 50 is great protection and I will slap this on regardless of whether I'm indoors or outdoors.<br />

<br />
My mascara go-to is no stranger to every makeup maven's essentials list and is also <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme</a>'s most flirtatious lash look. I've been a fan for a few years now, and I can safely say that it leaves your lashes voluminous, extended and full fringed for a wide-eye look. Definitely give it a go if you haven't already!<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Back to my new found love of a compact, Lancôme's Cushion is a godsend. I adore that it adapts to every woman, every skin tone and every desire – it works just as well as a primer, BB or CC cream, and as foundation. Best part? The coverage is build-able while leaving skin breathable.<br />
<br />
If you're as into the Cushion Limited Edition Cases as I am, simply purchase 2 refills in any <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme Singapore</a> store to receive them with compliments – or you may also <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">reserve here</a>!</div>
</div>
<br />
<img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/651/23793144716_35c2ba1d97_b.jpg" /><br />
<br />
And here's a treat for y'all: visit any <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Lancôme Singapore</a> store to experience the <a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank">Best of Lancôme</a> service starting with a 2 min-aura skincare service awakening your skin with Génifique Serum and Light Pearl. Next, create your perfect complexion using your choice of foundation and enhance the look with a bold lip using the L’absolu Rouge Definition Lipstick. Finally, finish off with a spritz of Lancôme Miracle Fragrance and walk away with a Personalised Sample Kit. Easy.<br />
<br />
It's a fresh new year, so remember to reveal a<a href="https://goo.gl/R5Olqe" target="_blank"> fresh new you</a>!<br />

<br />
Surely our previous <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/12/royal-blue-rendezvous.html" target="_blank">royal blue situation</a> with Ms Soignée had you swayed, and all in the name of the game, I’m still very much riveted by their timeless classics and luxurious fabrics and so here we have part two.<br />
<br />
This particular moment in time was the close of the coolest day of the month, and yes; the faux fur was absolutely necessary. What’s also crucial to note is that Ms Soignée’s lace pencil skirt is crafted out of Japanese imported lace. The result is appreciably marvelous and I couldn’t help but pair it with a navy double breasted blazer that boasted hints of gold. Needless to say, whether with or without an extra layer of outerwear, the skirt lends just the right amount of texture and will transition you from the office to the city rather seamlessly.<br />

<br />
Meanwhile, this wide collar top is one of the simplest and most elegant pieces you can assimilate into your working wardrobe. I think it’s safe to say every power woman needs the perfect little black top in addition to the LBD, no? And if you pay much closer attention, you’ll agree that the combination of the top’s fine lace detail and low-key sheen creates a subtle glamour. Quick tip: break up the all-black canvas with a trench coat tied at the waist and finish off with pointed-toe stilettos. <br />

<br />
For those of you asking, my favorite ladylike item from Ms Soignée is none other than their gorgeous wrap lace dress. And such is the life of a layer-everything person, I’ve teamed the sea foam piece with a viridian blanket scarf and some muted blush heels, and have allowed my feather clutch to inject that extra colour pop. This new lace infatuation is slowly taking over my life, but thankfully it can take me from board meetings to a night on the town with my girls!<br />
<br />
Versatility. All that a lady needs, really.

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Best of 2015</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome to 2016! Without a doubt 2015 has certainly been eventful, so it's only apt to do a roundup of my favourite moments from the past year. And to you guys, thank you for following me on this journey! I truly thrive on all your support, encouragement and love – and will continue to do my best.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The first few seconds of January was spent watching New Year's fireworks atop <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/01/vail-venture.html" target="_blank">Vail</a> Mountains, and truly the spectacle is something I can never quite forget. Meanwhile, I was still homesick for <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/search?updated-max=2015-01-16T15:19:00%2B08:00&max-results=2&reverse-paginate=true&start=2&by-date=false" target="_blank">Aspen</a> but Los Angeles was brimming with the best sunsets and views from our place of stay, and San Fransisco is never short of adorable people, houses and streets. For recovery, I stopped over in Manila and Singapore.</div>

<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
February revived my love for <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/02/blanket-coat-chronicle.html" target="_blank">blanket ponchos</a> and was just right for a photoshoot trip to the <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/02/premiere-muse.html" target="_blank">sand dunes</a>. I also spent a mighty long time with family holidaying in Bali, and even with our <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/07/bali-goes-luxe.html" target="_blank">luxurious home in a national park</a>, a <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/05/balis-oasis.html" target="_blank">residence that was overly huge</a>, and my current <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/07/santai-in-umalas.html" target="_blank">favourite boutique pool villa</a>, I can safely say that I've had just enough of the sand, sun and sea. </div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-small;">03: Blue Mountains in Sydney, and Perth, Western Australia</span><br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
March was beautiful in the way that everyday was surprisingly extremely scenic. I'll admit this: waking up to the Blue Mountains is a real treat.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<br /></div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-small;">04: Bora Bora, Mo'orea and Tahiti Islands, French Polynesia / Tauranga and Bay of Islands, New Zealand
/ Los Angeles, California</span><br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
So maybe I was crazy when I decided to head towards more blue waters after Bali's retreat, because my voyage to the <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/05/dear-clear-waters.html" target="_blank">islands of French Polynesia and New Zealand</a> were nothing short of balmy days and uneven tan lines. Nevertheless, I fell in love for they were charming beyond words and immensely much more impressive than the Maldives. Really.</div>

<br />
<div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
My blue hair lived for 3 weeks in both LA and SF, and then Hong Kong called for a stopover for the obsessive feasting of dim sum. Shortly after, I paid a visit to Shanghai and its luminous city, and was enthralled by the Bund's psychedelic lights.</div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Overload of Japanese food everyday, regardless of whether I'm in China, Philippines or Australia. Asia's heat is undoubtedly a tyrant, so when it was time to return back to Perth, I was hugely relieved.</div>

I took a break in darling NYC before<a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/09/new-york-with-gucci.html" target="_blank"> joining Gucci </a>in their festivities, and geez you really see so much more on foot despite the hot weather being an inconvenience. <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/07/white-heat.html" target="_blank">Times Square</a> and <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/07/le-denim.html" target="_blank">Fifth Avenue</a> remain as some of my favourite areas, ever – and <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/07/lace-and-lace-up.html" target="_blank">this lace up situation</a> is also one of my favourite situations ever, for 2015 at least.<br />

After I had enough of the Big Apple, I took off to Seoul in pursuit of some soul-searching and how I managed to endure wearing long sleeves in the heat, I will never know. I also quickly stopped over in Singapore for a reunion with the FIDé family and then flew down under to celebrate my 21st – still floored by everyone's sincere wishes and gifts, thank you!</div>

<br />
In <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/10/ladymatic-love.html" target="_blank">Dalian</a>, after a hectic round of 3 flights, lies an opulent, Bavarian-style castle hotel that sits majestically atop a mountain and overlooks the gorgeous Yellow Sea – I'd almost thought I woke up in San Francisco because the paddle-pop view was really that dreamy.<br />

How nice it was to finally have a quiet and slow month for rest. Admittedly, a white christmas would've been ideal, but seeing how I was still running on an average of 5-6 hours of sleep per day, I thought it was best to stay put and fuel up for the new year. No regrets.<br />
<br />
Every year is full of potential, let's make 2016 count!</div>

And just like that, another year is once again coming to an end. I'm still losing sleep over all my overdue projects and am constantly awake at ungodly hours with a nonstop mind, but I suppose there's always a reason to take a break during the happy holidays. This year, I'll be spending my Christmas in Perth twirling away in this gorgeous frock – admittedly I still miss <a href="http://www.paledivision.com/2015/01/white-aspen.html" target="_blank">Aspen</a> like crazy – and here's to wishing you all the merriest christmas yet, lovebirds!<br />

I'll admit I'm no athlete and won't even pretend to understand what a proper workout routine is. In fact, the only time I entered an official gym this year was to accompany my fit-as friend and I had failed to even start up the treadmill on my own. In high school, I dreaded physical education and always found excuses to worm my way out. And since running wasn't my thing, the only sport I ever enjoyed and pursued was golf.<br />
<br />
Fast forward a few years later, I owe my lack of stamina to all the exercises I skipped out on, and to all the walking I didn't do. But those washboard abs splashed across the media are enticing, and certainly some downtime dressing doesn't hurt – whether suitable for playing sport, or not at all.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
My attempt to whip myself into sartorial shape takes the daytime form of walking from store to store, and/or dancing the night away. Surely you don't have to be an exercise fiend to sport activewear, and perspiration is definitely not compulsory.<br />
<br />
So thank goodness for <a href="http://www.adidas.com.sg/" target="_blank">adidas</a>. With an unparalleled ability to fuse fashion and function, the brand utilises more than 60 years of design across its range of sleek, minimalist sneakers and streetwear. The result is covetable, breathable and ultra comfortable pieces that will take you from gym locker room to boutique dressing room without the faux pas shame.<br />

The verdict is that transitional pieces that could qualify as fashionable athletic-wear are the new street uniforms. Today you can go just about anywhere in your sports bra and leggings, and no one would question it. Perhaps then, fashion has become unfussy and accepting of the gym-to-street notion – one that I have grown to embrace, despite my limited athletic ability.<br />

To think of all the things I should've done when I had the time back in high school – track and field, swimming classes, baseball, rugby, and so on. Maybe I would be cellulite-free by now, but then again maybe not. After all, a diet consisting of whatever I want, whenever I want is one that I need to quit, pronto. Maybe then I'll try running again. I promise to <a href="https://twitter.com/willamazing" target="_blank">tweet</a> my progress if so, but in the meantime, any advice?<br />

Surely the holiday season is all about the thrill of seeing and sharing happiness through a curious lens. Energetic colours, exciting designs, surprising details – what more could you ask for under the Christmas tree. As you all know, gorgeous arm candies are some of the things I live for, and thankfully Fossil’s handcrafted accessories are made up of all kinds of playfulness and the assurance that giving is surely as much fun as receiving.<br />
<br />
From totes to saddlebags, <a href="https://www.fossil.com.au/" target="_blank">Fossil </a>really has them all. My <a href="https://www.fossil.com/au/en/women/handbags/view-all/sydney-crossbody-sku-zb5951599c.html" target="_blank">crossbody </a>choice is naturally a clean classic and structured one that will carry you past this festive season, and truly its soft glazed leather is much dreamier than a dozen glazed donuts for both lunch and dinner. Meanwhile, Fossil's <a href="https://www.fossil.com/au/en/women/watches/view-all/curiosity-hand-wound-dark-brown-leather-watch-sku-me3088p.html" target="_blank">skeleton watch</a> reveals all and certainly dresses up your wrists in more ways than one. For this reason, I couldn’t resist styling this timeless piece in 2 ways; the first against shades of blue, with a casual tunic and ripped denim. So it must be true: this beige gold-tone steel construction works against all hues.<br />
<br />

The watch’s skeleton dial and self-winding movement keeps time for about 40 hours. It doesn't get more classic than this, no? Inspired by its classic charm, I decided to style the watch with earthly tones of warm cinnamons and browns. Of course, Fossil’s bags are just as able to steal the show, and to prove this point, I paired the ticking baby with their signature <a href="https://www.fossil.com/au/en/women/handbags/view-all/sydney-satchel-sku-zb5486599c.html" target="_blank">satchel bag</a>. Crafted with a perfectly worn and casual feel, this clean-lined classic style features touchable textures and vintage-inspired details – all part of <a href="https://www.fossil.com.au/" target="_blank">Fossil</a>’s vintage-meets-modern aesthetic.

Imagine what it’d be like to carry a piece of history upon your arms. Undeniably, there are only so many design labels that have a craft story dating back to the 18th century. <a href="http://www.borbonese.com/" target="_blank">Borbonese</a> is one of them; with a cultural heritage hailing from Turin, Italy, in 1902, the jewellery and accessory line catered to the bourgeoisie and intelligentsia. You could say it was the go-to boutique for ladies of upper class in society.<br />
<br />
<img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/577/23620095856_4d42b118a8_b.jpg" /><br />
<br />
So for the upcoming season, Borbonese has reinvented and amped up its iconic Luna bag designed in the late 1970s into an exclusive piece, marking the brand’s centenary. And with good reason too – the Luna bag’s distinctive shape drew much love from the fashion industry, with its unstructured style, sartorial stitching and lightness.<br />
<br />

<img src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5788/23350478960_28ff860ef7_b.jpg" /><br />
<br />
I had the pleasure of viewing the gorgeous collection at <a href="http://www.borbonese.com/" target="_blank">Borbonese</a>’s book launch in Singapore. And in that intimate session, Borbonese’s Marketing and Communications Manager, Michela Zavka, shared about the brand’s rich history and identity. It was at the preview of its limited edition Spring Summer 2016 Luna Bag collection that I got to gawk at an amazing array of arm candies, and also struggled to convince myself I didn’t need to own all of them.<br />
<br />
What you notice first is how the eclectic and inventive colour schemes redefined the classic Borbonese moon bag design. Utilizing the finest handcraftsmanship and top-of-the-range materials, the brand’s close attention to detail is evident from its delicate hand-application of golden micro-sequin, studs and rhinestones onto the array of fabrics. All these featured designs are highly exclusive, and only one piece per design will be made available in Singapore next season.<br />
<img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/596/23427280622_06f9b097b3_o.jpg" /><img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/628/23240024170_1129c60369_b.jpg" />
<img src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5814/23427273372_3db3cb7a3b_b.jpg" /><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.borbonese.com/" target="_blank">Borbonese</a>’s mark of distinction is the O.P. or Occhio di Pernice (partridge eye) print, the result of a brushing technique on the lamb’s leather that naturally arises a delicate motif, and is the iconic texture given to many of its collections. Needless to say, I chose to style its classic O.P. suede bag in warmer pecan browns paired with matching textures in a much darker hue for my day out. The bag is, after all, a statement piece that wouldn’t need to compete for attention, and is also one that wouldn’t ever let you down. Take it from me: the versatile piece can be slung casually, hand carried or hooked at the crook, making it just the perfect bag to leave the house in whatever season.<br />
<br />
Borbonese is available at Robinsons @ The Heeren, Takashimaya department store, and Julie Nicole @ Capitol Piazza.<br />

The only way to ring in Christmas is with an enchanting, ladylike and loyal wrist candy – one that sparkles with the season, and one that dazzles just like Emporio Armani’s holiday range. As the pioneering line of Giorgio Armani, the sleek collection was designed with uninhabited spiritedness and dynamic evolution in mind. Constantly innovating and updating its styles, the line pushes the frontier of the time-honed art of watch-making. From my years in the fashion industry, I know for sure that trends come and go – yet Emporio Armani constantly expresses itself in a new metropolitan language; keeping its alluring classic aesthetic while redefining fashion’s current trends.<br />

<br />
I simply and quite literally could not take my hands off their Gianni T-Bar watches. Notably, the largely successful piece has been re-imagined in several exciting new ways including a slender rectangular case for the first time The elegant white matte dial, studded with 10 bedazzling crystals is set in a rose-gold plated petite frame. No doubt the unabashed femininity is clear in this piece; its slim lady-like silhouette and light peach leather strap complement the watch’s rose-gold body. With this inspiration, it was only apt to style the time-piece with matching baby-pinks and soft colors for an ultra-feminine feel.<br />

<br />
Surely time is transient and fleeting – but a special watch that holds time in its place is not. These ticking pieces keep your life on the ball, simultaneously showing you that life is above and beyond the seconds and minutes they quantify. They are investments that stay with you through life’s many moments and memories, making them with you as you go along.<br />

<br />
It also goes without saying that I firmly believe in a classic watch – one timeless and sophisticated like this other Gianni T-Bar. Bringing to mind a quintessential treasure, its white mother-of-pearl dial with centrally set pavé crystal stones is set apart only by its rose-gold plated case and bracelet. Certainly, such a characteristic design pairs with any outfit easily and effortlessly. Its elegance is showcased even with the simplest of turtlenecks and light denim.<br />
<br />
Thank goodness for the holidays! ‘Tis the season to dress up.

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Style, elegance, and sophistication – these traits wholly define Ms Soignée’s debut collection that has been designed with the modern working woman in mind. Certainly, our ideal outfit has the privilege of being both chic work-ready for early morning meetings, yet feminine and lush enough for cocktails with the girls come evening. And quite evidently, <a href="http://mssoignee.com/" target="_blank">Ms Soignée</a> proves that versatility has not been compensated for style and comfort. You can literally transition their pieces from day to night with the right coordinates and accessories, tried and true.<br />
<br />
For one, I’ve styled the <a href="http://mssoignee.com/products/ellyn" target="_blank">Ellyn metallic lace romper</a> with hints of deep green and matching velvet in sapphire. What I love most is how the romper’s shade of royal blue is paired with a bronze-hued metallic lace. The opulent piece features sheer lace décolleté and sleeves, a standup lace collar and raw lace trims at the hemline – a casual playoff between romantic elements and structured clean lines, and the combination seemingly works well.<br />
<br />
As you guys already know, I'm a big fan of anything lace and royal blue, so what do you think?</div>

<br />
Get a grip on this: sometimes in life and fashion, you come to find that you need a little bit of structure. And so the top handle remains one of my favourite kinds of architectural accessory. Boasting a boxy silhouette, genteel attitude and when elegantly wrapped with a silk scarf, the bag lends a polished finish to all ensembles.<br />
<img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/781/23048944191_94a89874b9_o.jpg" /><img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/683/22645576729_fc3c0be1b5_o.jpg" /><br />

<br />
Whether worn on the elbow or merely being toted, the top handle is a ladylike winner and can take you from brunch to the office without losing serious style factor. Certainly, nothing defines the upcoming summer season like the vigour of a perfect mustard bag.<br />
<br />

<br />
Moving on, it's time to make room in your wardrobe because one can never have too many bucket bags. The spacious accessory is both roomy and unfussy, and I guarantee that it will stay on for plenty of years. In particular, this evolved version features nappa calf leather with gunmetal finish and a top resin handle for you to literally grab and go.<br />

They say a little bit of suede goes a long way, and certainly it does, especially with <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bd7v66ffv/?&source=sg-bl-pale&utm_source=sg-blogger&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sg-bl-pale" target="_blank">Stuart Weitzman</a>'s army of thigh high boots. The grey matter is best tackled with a dose of textures – be it knit or python print, or both – and is best paired with a hint of rose gold for that extra finesse. For the upcoming tyrant of a summer, a little bit of skin is always nice. Bonus points for lace-up detail.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: start;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
For my second campaign with Atelier Swarovski, we unveil 'Swift' – its collaboration with British jewellery house Shaun Leane. The collection draws its inspiration from the crescent silhouette and quicksilver movements of the high-flying Swift, and evidently the pieces brim with energy and lightness. What I love most is how the flowing lines are adorned with light-refracting crystals and delicate detailing that is artfully put together to create a timeless yet elegantly modern design statement.<br />
<br />
Certainly it goes without saying that the ultimate luxury crystal accessories are best paired with a bold frock that brings to mind all kinds of playful twirling, swishing and sashaying. And of course, only a dashing cobalt such as this could chase away the big bad Monday blues, no?<br />

The ever classic camel coat gets a supple treatment and, in my personal opinion, looks fantastic paired with other textures of the same natural hue. Doing so guarantees that you won't look naked, unless of course that's the look you were going for, then by all means.<br />
<br />
As you also know, stacking the same color on top of another is one of my favourite things to do, but this time I've gone ahead and paired these camel coordinates with a suede dreamboat of a <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bd7xkmffw/?&source=sg-bl-pale&utm_source=sg-blogger&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sg-bl-pale" target="_blank">boot</a> that is worthy of every occasion from brunch party to slow dance soirée. These thigh high kicks are super versatile and I foresee myself wearing them repeatedly through seasons, rain or shine. Note to self: To overuse suede protector sprays that repel water and stains, pronto. </div>

Perth certainly lacks the impending cold, and for someone who is solely committed to serious winter wear, I'm still deciding if this is a good or bad thing. Thankfully we still have a bit of chill before the spring of warmth finally sets in, and what better way to take advantage of that than with a luxurious faux fur cape decorated with the grandeur of Swarovski crystals.<br />
<br />
I did receive countless of compliments on today's outfit – my jewellery in particular – and truly, nobody does a crystal collection quite like Swarovski. Philippe Ferrandis’s first Atelier Swarovski collection takes its inspiration from the architecture and Art Deco influences of the Island of Manhattan. Here, the Tonal Crystal line reflects the classic allure of the city’s Upper East Side – and very rightfully so. What do you think?<br />

November coming along is a cue for all of us to refresh our makeup and beauty routines for the upcoming holidays. Truly, 'tis the season for glowy skin and high shine eyeshadow, or a bright red lippie if you prefer. Whatever it is, we can all agree that a change is always nice.<br />
<br />
In the same fashion, websites are always changing and moving, and Luxola has now been rebranded to <a href="http://www.sephora.com.au/?utm_source=influencer_marketing&utm_medium=referrals&utm_campaign=other_WillabelleOng" target="_blank">Sephora.com.au</a> – and this can only be a good thing. Put simply, Sephora is finally online and my then eighteen year old dream is finally a reality so I thought I'd share some of my picks!<br />
<br />
<img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/563/22480971630_1e746be281_o.jpg" /><br />
<br />
A couple of classic favourites from <a href="http://www.sephora.com.au/?utm_source=influencer_marketing&utm_medium=referrals&utm_campaign=other_WillabelleOng" target="_blank">Sephora.com.au</a>: Sephora's Smart Liner that is water and smudge-proof, Make Up For Ever Aqua Matic eyeshadow pencil in diamond golden grey that is unbelievably blendable and stays put, and Sephora's Crayon lèvres glossy lip pencil in pale pink that glides on as a perfect shade of nude.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
For those days when you have a mere few minutes to get ready, <a href="http://www.sephora.com.au/?utm_source=influencer_marketing&utm_medium=referrals&utm_campaign=other_WillabelleOng" target="_blank">Sephora</a> Colorful Blush in Can't Stop Smiling and LAQA & Co Honeypot Lip Lube Pencil is the perfect everyday-wear combination. Dab highlighter on the apple of your cheeks, the tip of your nose, and the cupid's bow of your lips for extra freshness and illumination.<br />
<br />

<img src="https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/688/22655383472_b5231d248f_o.jpg" /><br />
<br />
One of <a href="http://www.sephora.com.au/?utm_source=influencer_marketing&utm_medium=referrals&utm_campaign=other_WillabelleOng" target="_blank">Sephora</a>'s bestsellers, it comes as no surprise that Alpha-H Liquid Gold has a cult following. It basically works like an overnight facial to revitalize tired skin and prevents wrinkles, pigmentation and sun damage. Once applied to the face, body and neck, you might feel a slight tingling sensation –– this is normal so don't worry! I personally haven't tried out the product for long enough to claim loyalty, but so far I like it and would recommend for anyone to give it a go.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Another favourite of mine is <a href="http://www.sephora.com.au/?utm_source=influencer_marketing&utm_medium=referrals&utm_campaign=other_WillabelleOng" target="_blank">Sephora</a>'s Crayon lèvres glossy lip pencil in pale pink that I use almost all the time. Its creamy formula is the perfect compromise between a gloss and a balm, delivering a texture that glides on velvety smooth with a hydrating finish. So easy to touch up too!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<img src="https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5811/22520562250_a6d7b4e47f_o.jpg" />
<br />
<br />
Finally, finish your looks off with <a href="http://www.sephora.com.au/?utm_source=influencer_marketing&utm_medium=referrals&utm_campaign=other_WillabelleOng" target="_blank">Sephora</a> Eau De Toilette in Chocolate. It really is as delicious-smelling as this tub of brownie fudge ice cream I'm currently feeding on, and is also mini sized enough to accompany you on-the-go. Smell good pull good, as they say.<br />
<br />
And what a relief that <a href="http://www.sephora.com.au/?utm_source=influencer_marketing&utm_medium=referrals&utm_campaign=other_WillabelleOng" target="_blank">Sephora.com.au</a> is finally live. Enjoy!<br />

They say we spend one third of our lives in bed, so it only makes sense to invest in luxe silky repertoires that sweet dreams are made of. A personalised silk pyjama set remains stylish all hours of the day, and has the right amount of accompanying insouciance you could ever ask for.<br />
<br />
Surely I live for these <a href="http://evethelabel.com/" target="_blank">Eve The Label </a>collared cut co-ords, they're both mighty transeasonal and functional – simply add one major jewellery piece and a sumptuous coat, and you're out the door in seconds. There's also a reason why silk robe dressing gowns are a coveted item. They're timeless, will never date, and will stay with you for years and years. I personally bring one or two along on my travels, for they're seriously lightweight and unbelievably chic to lounge in.<br />
<br />
Sleepwear elegance never looked better. Agree?<br />

A quick check in from Australia, it's great to be home.<br />
<br />
Sometimes an all-black ensemble is the solution to dreary rounds of flights and sleepless nights, or for when you actually feel like the grim reaper regardless of the fact that Halloween is fast approaching. Really though, top this off with a classic witch hat and I'm trick-or-treat ready.<br />
<br />
The point is, however, that these flared pants are mighty figure-flattering and we should be thankful the Seventies silhouette du jour is back on the radar. Here I've worn them with a flared top for that easy breezy nonchalant slouch, but suit up with a tuxedo jacket and swap for pointed heels, and the look may just be red carpet ready.</div>
