HONG KONG Hong Kong's autumn is a strange, in-between kind of season — the humidity finally breaks, but the air conditioning stays on full blast in every mall, office and MTR carriage, and skin ends up caught between the last of summer's sweat and the first of the season's dryness. YINA, the skincare and wellness brand built on Traditional Chinese Medicine, has built its entire philosophy around exactly this kind of seasonal transition. Its Fall Hydration Edit is worth paying

HONG KONG Welcoming a newborn is a moment of joy, and choosing the right gift is a way of showing you care. Hong Kong offers a wide range of baby gifts, from beautifully curated hampers to organic cotton essentials, from practical must-haves to design-led toys.

HONG KONG Mid-Autumn Festival falls on September 25 this year, and Hong Kong's hotels have rolled out their annual mooncake collections. Here are some highlights and where to order them. Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong The real draw is Lung King Heen's expanded lineup: alongside the Mixed Nuts Mooncakes with Candied Citrus (HK$628), the two-Michelin-starred restaurant offers Cream Custard with Toasted Pine Nuts (HK$628) and Preserved Egg and Pickled Ginger (HK$628), plus an Asso

Summer doesn't ask for much — a good dress, a way to protect your hair from the sun you're chasing, and a skincare routine that can keep up with sweat, salt water, and the occasional overnight flight. This year's edit leans into that simplicity: breezy silhouettes in powder blue and black-and-white, hoops and hammered gold that do the talking, and a haircare-meets-skincare lineup built for humidity, chlorine, and everything else the season throws at you. My Mum Made It: Cheri

British luxury brand WOLF has launched a new collaboration with printmaker Fiona Howard, lining the inside of its bestselling Sophia jewellery boxes and travel cases with a hand-carved botanical print — a design detail visible only once the piece is opened.

There's a particular kind of confidence that comes with decades of iconography. Marshall has always known that its home speakers don't just need to sound good — they need to look like they belong on a stage. The Acton has long been the entry point into that world: compact enough to fit on a bookshelf, powerful enough to make you forget you're not at a gig. With the Acton IV, Marshall isn't reinventing the formula. It's refining it — and in doing so, it's produced what may be

The Stanmore has always occupied a curious position in Marshall's home speaker lineup. Larger than the Acton but smaller than the Woburn, it's the speaker that demands you justify the step up: what exactly are you getting for the additional spend and the extra footprint? With the Stanmore IV, that question is easier to answer than ever. This is a genuinely refined product — not a flashy generational leap, but the kind of careful, considered upgrade that makes a good speaker b

Summer in Asia is a test of endurance – not just for your spirit, but for your skin. Humidity turns smooth swashes into sticky messes. Air conditioning saps moisture. Sun exposure accelerates visible ageing. And the heat? It makes even the most dedicated among us want to abandon the whole process altogether. The solution is not to do more. It is to be smarter. This summer, we have curated a lineup of brands and products that work with the season, not against it. From scientif

HONG KONG By the time Father's Day rolls around each June, the city has reached its breathless pre-summer peak — humidity rising, schedules crammed, the annual guilt of not knowing quite what to get. This year, we did the work for you. From the audiophile to the skincare convert, the coffee obsessive to the watch collector who thinks he's seen it all, here are the gifts worth giving — and, more importantly, receiving. Father's Day 2026 takes place on June 21. Marshall Bromley

INTERVIEW In a city where coffee culture has evolved from a morning necessity into a lifestyle obsession, standing out in a crowded market is no easy feat. Yet for Bernice Liu, the founder of Qi Concepts, the opportunity wasn't about creating another coffee brand — it was about rethinking what ready-to-drink coffee could be. Frustrated by canned coffees laden with sugars, preservatives and hard-to-pronounce ingredients, she set out to create a cleaner alternative built around

Stanley has spent a century building things that don't break. Now it's building things you won't want to put down — and this golf-world collab is proof the brand's cultural instincts are sharper than ever. There is a peculiar alchemy at work when a brand that made its name on indestructible steel thermoses decides to enter the soft-goods cooler market. Stanley, which has been outfitting durable-goods enthusiasts since 1913, has in recent years become something far more compli

Marshall's first party speaker is a detonation. Sixty years of stage heritage, compressed into a single portable unit that hits 127 dB and runs for 40 hours — this is what happens when a pro audio company decides to take the consumer category seriously. Party speakers are a category that has long rewarded volume over intelligence. For years, the benchmark was set by JBL's PartyBox series — capable, well-made, but fundamentally engineered around the premise that a party speake

HONG KONG Mother’s Day has a charming habit of creeping up on even the most organised among us. And while a bunch of flowers and a last-minute card will certainly do in a pinch, why not aim a little higher this year? Whether your mother is a jewellery enthusiast, a wellness devotee, or someone who believes the best gift is a long, lazy brunch with some good company, we have curated a selection of gifts and experiences that truly celebrates her. Wiskii Active – Riviera Floral

The 2026 collaboration between Pandora and Disney returns with a collection that reframes iconic characters as modern symbols of identity, transformation and playful self-expression.

HONG KONG In Hong Kong’s fast-moving, design-conscious entertaining scene, it’s no longer enough to just uncork a good bottle. The glass you pour it into has to earn its place on the table. Enter the RIEDEL Fatto a Mano Black Tie collection : part precision-engineered tool, part sculptural objet d’art, all about making every sip feel like an occasion. Launching Q2 2026 across all Town House locations in Hong Kong at HK$898 a piece , these glasses are designed for the host wh

HONG KONG There’s a particular kind of magic in hosting at home—the quiet clink of crystal, the low hum of conversation, the deliberate pacing of an evening that feels both intimate and indulgent. In Hong Kong, the art of entertaining has evolved into something more curated, more considered. And at the heart of it all? The bottle you choose to pour. Whether you’re planning a refined dinner party or an impromptu celebration, Cuvées offers a tightly edited selection of exceptio

There are suitcase launches, and then there are invitations to travel. TUMI’s Spring 2026 collection, Mediterranean Escape , falls into the latter — less about luggage, more about the mood of getting away. Colour as Destination At its core is a shift in tone. TUMI, long known for precision and performance, is loosening up. The signature 19 Degree cases arrive in thyme green, washed yellow and terracotta — shades drawn from coastal landscapes rather than airport lounges. The s

HONG KONG In a city long synonymous with neon-lit whisky bars and rooftop Champagne rituals, Hong Kong’s drinking culture has quietly undergone a craft revolution. Beyond the imported labels that dominate hotel backbars, a new generation of homegrown producers is distilling, brewing and blending spirits that speak fluently in the language of the city itself: inventive, international and exciting. From small-batch gins infused with local botanicals to playful ready-to-drink co

In an age dominated by smartphones and smartwatches, the mechanical wristwatch might seem like a relic, but it’s anything but. Far from fading into obsolescence, fine timepieces have only grown in cultural and emotional significance. A luxury watch is more than a tool for telling time; it’s a statement of identity, a tribute to tradition, and often, a deeply personal heirloom. It carries stories of milestones achieved, legacies passed down, or quiet moments of self-reward. Co
