BANGKOK - Have you ever experienced that frustrating moment when you spend hours packing clothes and belongings just to go on vacation? You put your favorite emerald sweater in your suitcase then take it out 10 minutes later...

Actually, precise information about your destination and a practical fashion concept can really make your life easier, especially when it comes to a festive season. Styling tips and wardrobe ideas are some of the necessary matters that I'm really concerned about. I always read magazines and randomly look through lookbook.nu with a high hope of new creativity ideas, but its quite challenging since there is a broad range of styles to focus on.

However, I have got a lot of inspiration from the recent event that I attended: Siam Paragon Fashion Voyage hosted by DELL Corporation (Thailand) and 360 Pano Khaoyai on November 23, 2012 at Siam Paragon, Bangkok.

Thus, if you are thinking about going on a trip this Christmas or New Year, either it will be in the center of fashion like Paris or Milan, exotic place like South Africa or even the luxurious touch of star cruise, you can definitely have a wardrobe plan up ahead. For a glamour look, you can pair the short little black dress with puffy fur and pearl earrings. Or match black leather jacket with shiny disco pants and a few accessories just like the style of Jet Set Shopper!
