 Diwali sweets at Peppermill The best thing I remember about Diwali from my childhood in Fiji Islands was the amazing array of sweets my fathers clients used to send home and the numerous parties we went to.

We walked through gardens, woodlands, light forests and NJD even had a Winnie the Pooh moment throwing twigs in the river and watching them come on the other end of a bridge over a waterfall. We took photos of the chapel, a masterpiece of gothic revival, standing tall in grandeur of the past. NJD … Continue reading Explore Clumber Park

(Actually it will be there until the 17th of August 2013). The moon jar is a vessel shaped albeit like the moon … Continue reading Moon Jars

Afternoon Tea with Jimmy Choo in Hong Kong

Business & Lifestyle Publishing

First let me clarify that I still have mixed feelings about Jimmy Choo….my sexy red heels remain uncomfortable the last I felt it but I still love the white bag, which for Choo, is NOT BAD since I normally use Luis Vuitton as a benchmark. However, I am delighted with the look of The Landmark Mandarin Oriental and the MO Bar at the hotel, which also looks beautiful in photos, has organised its latest fashion tea in collaboration with Jimmy Choo. Jimmy Choo shoes and handbags are often worn by style icons around the world, from celebrities to royalty, and … Continue reading Afternoon Tea with Jimmy Choo in Hong Kong
