Singapore Packing and Streetstyle What to wear when you’re there The main factor to think about when packing for Singapore is the humidity level, it’s boiling hot all year round, even at night, so theres no need for heavy outerwear and coats. It can get quite chilly in the air conditioned malls and hotels though so a light weight cover up could be handy. The second thing to bear in
Singapore Shopping Orchard Road One of the best shopping destination I have ever been to! Put it this way for quite a small city there are 5 Prada stores, 5 Louis Vuittons and over 50 shopping malls! Now that is what I call serious about shopping. But if malls are not you’re thing and you get your fill of H&M and Zara back at home, there are other quirky more
Paris After Dark Le Royal Monceau (see hotels below) Where? Paris, France When? I’ve been to Paris more times than I can remember, the first time officially was in my mother’s tummy (maybe why I like French food so much!), through to the many work trips, fashion weeks and shoots I’ve been on over the past few years.

Paris Shopping, Rue St Honore and the Palais Royale This is a little bit of an obvious choice for Parisian shopping areas, it’s the equivalent of Bond Street in London. If designer brands are you bag then head to the 1st for Balenciaga, Chanel, Valentino and the like. Also in this area are: Maison Martin Margiela 25 bis, Rue de Montpensier 75001 PARIS Tel: 33 1 401 50755 www.maisonmartinmargiela.com
Paris Shopping Deyrolle Deyrolle 46 rue du Bac 75007 Paris www.deyrolle.com Just around the corner from the Gainsbourg house is the weird and wonderful world of Deyrolle. It may not be the most obvious place to visit in Paris but the taxidermy curiosities are fascinating and inspiring. Worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Stockholm Shopping Grandpa Store The two main shopping areas worth noting in Stockholm are central Stockholm, the roads leading off Birger Jarlsgatan and the area called Sodermalm, which is filled with quirky boutiques and trendy Scandinavian labels. If your staying at the Berns or Nobis (see sleeping), you are within easy walking distance of the main designer street, Birger Jarlsgatan. Also just around the corner from there are all the
Stockholm Sleeping Where to stay? Main restaurant at The Berns The Berns Hotel Berzelli Park SE-103 27 Stockholm http://www.berns.se/en/hotel The Berns Hotel was built in 1863. The incredible interior emulates that of a grand opera house. It’s the home of Stockholm Fashion Week twice a year, hosting shows in the salon and raucous parties on the outdoor balconies throughout the week. The interior is stunning with original guilt mirrors, enormous
Berlin Shopping Record shop on kastanienallee Shopping As with all major cities Berlin has several areas which are good for shopping. Prenslauer Berg and the Weinmeister area are my favourites. It’s also worth heading to Mitte to see Tacheles and a visit to the Andreas Murkadis concept store is a must. See below. Prenzlauer Berg Once an up and coming area Prenzlauer Berg is now home to quirky and trendy boutiques, think
