I love Cole Haan shoes, but I cannot find them in Hong Kong. Can you help?

Simple Sole, Tai Po

The Dictator rules: Oh no, I was imagining hideous basket-weave loafers in orange/brown when I set out on this search. Thankfully, the hidden-away shops had none of those early Nineties fashion faux pas on display. Instead, the styles were simple and bland enough to rival Coach. The leather shoes come in neutral colours with a few red models that cost from about $1,300 for a suede driving shoe to $2,900 for leather boots. There are some unfortunate attempts to capture a younger market with sneaker-inspired designs, but we will choose to overlook those. In addition to women's shoes, they have bags and, for men, shoes, socks, belts, briefcases and watches. On Hong Kong island, visit Sogo (old wing, 555 Hennessy Road; tel: 2831 8436). In Kowloon, go to the Cole Haan shop at Festival Walk, Kowloon Tong (tel: 2265 8386).

Love, set, match

I'd like a tennis bracelet but can't afford the real thing. Where can I buy a fake one?
