What’s on this weekend in Hong Kong…
The sunshine has finally returned, so if it stays for the weekend then of course we’ll want to be outside! Yogis can’t miss out on OMFEST Hong Kong, an outdoor yoga fest at the Central Harbourfront. If you really want to unwind, then head over to awesome new oyster bar, The Walrus, for a shucking good street party. And if that’s not your cup of tea, check out Vibes at The Mira for a tiki-themed Tropical Haven Party. Here’s to the weekend!
It’s a bling thing!
We’re always on the look out for the best shopportunties in the ‘Kong, so when we heard that Little Square was hosting another awesome pop-up with chic jewellery brand Vasa New York, we couldn’t wait to check it out. Head over to Sheung Wan to browse Korean designer Jeenie Lim’s delicate, handcrafted pieces and add a touch of sparkle to your own style. We’re seeing stars with this unique Twinkle Open Ring and we love the pink sapphire gems and champagne diamonds in these Art Deco Earrings.
