Entrepreneur Find: Villa-Bali.com

Founded by my ex-boss, David Chambat, Villa-Bali.com is an online portal offering villa rental in Bali (Indonesia).

Unlike other accommodation booking websites, Villa-Bali.com fill the gap in providing

What I like about their website:
1. Colorful, Large Font and Cheerful Interface: There is something about the large font (or maybe a few other features) that entice me to go on clicking onto more pages! Study has done that fonts & font size play a very large role in click-through-rates on a website. On top of it, they have used very captivating and high res images on their header slideshow. 

2. Multi-Currency: Villa-Bali.com offers up to 8 International currencies, including SGD, KRW, USD, JPY, EUP etc.

3. Large Selection of Quality Luxury/Boutique Villas: Villa-Bali.com states to provide over 300 villas for you to choose from.

Heels with Socks

Finally, I'm able to write about this blog post, which I've been meaning to do so in the longest time ever!

Dressing heels with socks can look quirky or classy, depending on the type of heels and socks.
I have always been a fan of pairing socks/stockings (Black Opaque) with heels. Ever since I saw Rory in Gilmore Girls, dressed in a classic black cocktail dress, black opaque stockings, and black heels, I have a fad towards stockings and socks. Sadly, weather in Singapore doesn't exactly allow you to play around with these accessories in your wardrobe.

This is the best picture I could find of her in stockings and heels.

These are some of my favourite Heels with Socks pairings:



 Who would have though that white socks can accentuate a look beyond the schoolgirl image!

 Create a flirty and romantic look with these Red Patent Mary Jane Heels, Floral Ankle Socks and a black lace skirt.

 Military chic in High Lace-up Boots and Above the knee Black Socks.

 This reminds me of floral mints!

The perfect strategy to lengthen your body by creating a multi-layer look.

I hope you like these looks!

Pregnant Kim Kardashian: Fab to Drab

Yes, I am writing about Kim Kardashian's Fab to Drab. How a day makes a difference!

FAB (22nd Feb 2013)



The red lips, sleek hair, monochromatic dress, white pointed heels. Need we say more? Classy, classy classy!

DRAB (23rd Feb 2013)

 

I think she intended for the frills to cover her baby bump, but she neglected the fact that her tight fitting cropped top revealed more flesh than she hoped for. And seriously, snake-skin prints pants?! Kim Kardashian, what is going through that pregnant mind?!
