1.  Cell! Cell! Team up Swiss jewellery brand Caspita with pioneering architect Zaha Hadid, and the result is always going to be nothing if not spectacular. See, for instance, the Skein collection of limited-edition rings. Inspired by cellular structures, the rings are available in white gold and yellow gold (both pictured; HK$140,000 each) and are sold exclusively at Lane Crawford, IFC Mall, Central, tel: 2118 3388.

2.  Heel yes! Azzedine Alaia’s pumps never fail to embody comfort, style and sex appeal. The Tunisian-born designer’s ability to constantly seduce with his play on details and shapes has us hooked. This season, the brand is offering more intricate cutouts and bold textures. The metallic cutout sandal (right; HK$14,990) is one dazzling option while the floral-stud sandal with glass heel (left; HK$22,290) is a definite show stopper. Azzedine Alaia is available at Harvey Nichols, The Landmark, Central, tel: 3695 3388

3.  Charmed snake We love Salvatore Ferragamo's take on the current serpentine trend, pairing python with pale pinks and classic shapes. The Lolette (right; HK$42,000) is an outstanding example and will no doubt become a defining item of the season. For something more classic, there's the Sofia bag in sioux calf and python (left; HK$24,500). Salvatore Ferragamo is in Pacific Place, Admiralty, tel: 2845 2718.
