Add interest to your outfit with a beautiful scarf by Hermès
A silk scarf is a great way to accessorise a plain outfit or to keep you warm when you are travelling in countries with cooler climates. Hermès has a range of beautifully designed scarves in various sizes of 90 x 90cm, 140 x 140cm, and 20 x 160cm. The autumn/winter 2017 collection is playful and joyous and come in silk twill and cashmere.
When tying your scarf, you can get as creative as you want. The larger scarves can be used as a top and the smaller ones can be tied on your head.
For creative ideas, download the Silk Knots app by Hermès and watch short animation videos giving step-bystep instructions for tying a scarf.
Sunny days aheadPink-and-black is perhaps one of the best colour couplings of all time. Now you can wear this combination from Prada’s Ornate collection of sunglasses. It is a rimless, flat lens frame that features fine acetate inserts.
Night movesPlanning your year-end parties? Don’t limit your evening or cocktail style to dresses. Try a more masculine look such as cigarette trousers paired with a short fitted dinner jacket by Maje.
Casio’s GA-700SKZ-7A made its debut at Paris Fashion Week in June. Based on the GA-700, this timepiece — also known as the Tundrall — was inspired by the harsh landscape of Iceland. Designer Shangguan Zhe created each timepiece to highlight the tundra scene of snow and mountains. The shock-resistant watch is water-resistant to 200m and has an LED backlight to make reading time easy in poor lighting conditions.
Pure grace
Shimmering with 25 diamonds, Corum’s new limited-edition jewellery watch — Sublissima — features a mother-of-pearl heart sourced from the ocean depths. Housed in a 38mm diameter case, the timepiece is ringed with a corolla of 25 diamonds, integrates a 50-hour power reserve and is water-resistant to 10m. The mechanical movement offers an hour and minute function with gold hands. The pink-gold version is limited to eight pieces; 18 of the white-gold version are available.
Flaunting a classic
Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend but a well-manicured hand probably says more about her. Jetsetters who want to look immaculate on the go will find the best of both in Ulysse Nardin’s Classic Lady Dual Time collection. It is nail-friendly: You can set the date and time with a pusher and three dials on the crown. Pushers on the left of the diamond-encircled watch will adjust the hour to a different zone, while the home time indicator at nine o’clock continues its cycle. These watches will tempt you to flaunt your ability to keep time. The Classic Lady Dual Time is available at The Hour Glass.
