01 | Profess your love with Van Cleef & Arpels
Given its cultural and historical significance, a diamond will always convey a message of affection and love. It is a symbol of invincibility, of being everlasting, and of beauty. So with all that said, find the perfect diamond for your loved one glistening behind one of the glass cases at Van Cleef & Arpels. The 2020 collection features a stunning array of solitaire rings, as well as wedding bands (good time to renew those vows, no?). You can also go a step further with a shiny new brooch that features two lovebirds saddled on a tree branch.
Available at all Van Cleef & Arpels boutiques.

04 | Discover Preludio’s next culinary chapter
Since its inception into Singapore’s F&B scene a year ago with the Monochrome chapter, Preludio is overhauling its epicurean offerings with the second instalment to their growing chapter. Exploring the concept of time, Chapter 2 allows Preludio’s team of chefs to interpret time through personal, cultural and historical lenses.
Witness “The Time Machine” by Executive Chef Fernando Arévalo in a serving of five petit servings, each one spotlighting an ingredient that’s been prepped over a period of time, and cumulatively reflects Chef Fernando’s Latin American heritage. For a sweeter story, pastry chef Elena Pérez de Carrasco explores the concept of past, present and future, where she draws upon memories such as arriving in Singapore and her after-school snacks to inform her creations.
