6 picks from the Prestige summer fair

17 May, 2019 by Expat Living 4 Min Read

https://expatliving.hk/shopping-hong-kong-conrad-fairs-prestige-summer-lifestyle-and-gift-fair/

Looking to re-furnish your wardrobe for summer? Keep an eye out for these retailers at the upcoming Summer Lifestyle and Gift Shopping Fair by Prestige Events (scroll down for dates and details), a one-stop shopping destination for clothes, accessories, homeware and gifts for family and friends. See you at the Conrad!

Akosée

The Spring-Summer 2019 collection of this Singapore-based, luxury women’s fashion label by Aussie Anna McBride is highlighted by beautifully draped and cut dresses, skirts, jumpsuits and trouser-and-top sets in the company’s trademark silk cotton, as well as light viscose and cotton blends. Easy-to-wear kimono-style beach cover-ups stay true to Akosée’s resort feel. And asymmetrical dresses with waterfall hems and flattering bias-cut waistbands feature heavily. The collection’s theme of “Folklore Be Real” has a whimsical yet tropical feel with bold prints and neon hand embroidery. Imagine Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, only with a jungle setting!

Jetting off to Bali, Phuket or Ibiza? The Boho-chic look is coming back with a bang. Maria’s fashion-forward boutique features an array of fab resort wear, with beautiful kaftans for those white sandy beaches, long lazy lunches and balmy tropical nights – the holy trifecta of all island holidays! The trendy kaftans in glamorous silk are inspired by South Asian henna and oriental floral prints – handcrafted beauties that are made by the label’s in-house team in Pakistan and which have been showcased in trunk shows internationally.

Bella Blu

The team at Bella Blu believes that life should be filled with enriching experiences, revelling with friends and family near sparkling blue water and under clear blue skies – hence the company name! With a background in New Zealand, known for its powerful sun, they’re passionate about sun protection, while their global travels inspire a love of artisanal contemporary design, and a wish to create stylish yet practical items. The Bella Blu range of Panama toquilla straw hats is the result. Each hat is handmade in Ecuador by artisan craftsmen using traditional hat-making techniques, to which the brand’s contemporary and original designs are added.

In the mood for a sweet treat? These chewy salted caramel and chocolate cookies are delicious with a cuppa or warmed and crumbled over ice cream.

5 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened (or as an alternative, substitute half of the butter with natural peanut butter)
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup plain flour
6 tablespoons cocoa or cacao
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon sea salt flakes
1 cup chocolate chips
1 Mars Bar, chopped

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
2. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the egg and vanilla, then beat well.
4. Combine flour, cocoa (or cacao), baking soda and half of the salt; gradually blend into the creamed mixture.  5.Stir in the chocolate chips and Mars Bar pieces.
6. Drop tablespoon-sized amounts of the mixture onto a lined cookie sheet.
7. Bake for 8 to 9 minutes. Tip: do not over-bake! The cookies should be soft, they’ll puff up while baking and flatten while cooling.
8. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet onto wire rack.
9. Sprinkle with remaining sea salt flakes.
Enjoy!
