Style Theory offers designer bag rental services allowing you to experiment with fashion in an affordable and sustainable way

I do love a beautiful designer bag. I’m French after all! And I think there’s nothing quite like a nice bag to add just the fashion touch you need to any outfit.  But let’s be honest, I can’t afford buying enough bags to match all my outfits. Plus how to choose just one bag to buy when there are so many I want? On my whishlist: a 2.55 from Chanel, a Lady Dior from Dior, a Saddle from Dior, a Birkin from Hermès, a Puzzle from Loewe, a cabas from Céline, a Lou Camera bag from Saint Laurent and that’s just to name a few. Well, I might have found a solution … why not renting instead of buying? Style Theory arrives in Hong Kong and girls you are gonna love it! I mean, more than 2,000 designer bags ranging from timeless to trending and accessible with a HKD 899 subscription per month, is there anything not to like about it? Don’t be surprised if you see me wearing many different designer bags in the next few months … I did not won the lottery, just subscribed to Style Theory.

5 little things we love – October 2020
Launched at the beginning of 2020, Old HK in Colour is a non-profit organisation recolouring and animating old HK photographs and breathing new life into those pictures in order to provide people with a fresh look on the city’s history. I love their Instagram account which gives you a glimpse of the black and white image before and after recolouring and also posts a present picture for comparison along with details of the year in which the original picture was taken.
