Initial

We’re both absolutely elated and a bit distressed that Initial’s Lifestyle Select Shop is opening up a store right on D’Aguilar. Distressed because now the cool cat’s out of the bag, and Central trolls who never leave Central will know of Hong Kong’s best kept secret (and most distinct vision) on the fashion retail scene. Initial continues to separate style from celebrity culture with their deconstructed shop interiors. Check out the quirky quality collections of fashion and home-ware at their new capacious LKF store.1-1A Tak Woo House, 17-19 D’Aguilar St., Central, 3402-4520
Tech Know
TDK EB900 In-Ear HeadphonesThey aren’t called in-ear headphones for nothing. TDK’s latest offering plugs firmly into your auditory canal and provides a sound experience fit for those on the move. 

Pros
	• The Comply Foam Tip takes on the shape of your ear canal, cancelling out passive noise and other nagging external elements.
	• With the Y-neck braided cable, no matter how many times you twist and turn, the cord will remain untangled.
	• If you are into customized sound, these headphones picks it up instantly—which means no crazy clicking or distortion.
Cons
	• The only replacements you’ll get if you lose your foam tips (three pairs are included) are silicon ones.
	• Without equalization, expect the sound to be slightly flat.
How to get them: Browse the shops at Yau Shing Commercial Centre (51 Sai Yeung Choi St., Mong Kok), whose shops stock premium parallel imports for a good price. Or order from www.amazon.com
Nicole
A hot new French fashion boutique opens at The Landmark

Watch out Joyce, there’s a new fashionista in town. Her name is Nicole, she’s from Gay Paree, and you can find her in The Landmark. This brand-new French select store offers Hong Kong tai-tais andstyle mavens hot, upcoming fashion labels that are sophisticated and understatedly glam. The founder and owner of the new boutique is none other than mademoiselle Nicole Forissier, a fashion guru and retail specialist with well over 30 years of experience in luxury fashion brands. The boutique puts forth a well chosen but wide range of young and talented designers, mostly from France, some from Europe—such as Melinda Gloss. Popular already in Japan, Gloss’s creations have a laid-back edginess that melds together city and country wear; and Cotélac, formerly a women’s collection (now with a men’s line as well), with its earthy tones of azure and mossy green. And of course, the boutique carries Forissier’s own brand. Nicole is a collection of fine-quality cashmere, from gorgeous scarves and vests to cardigans and slip-ons that beg to be layered oh-so casually and chicly.
	The store itself evokes Parisian Art Nouveau in its decorative decadence, but not in a blindingly cluttered fashion. Unique pieces of furniture dating back to late 19th Century are scattered throughout the space. Indeed, the interior décor gives the boutique the ambience of the Art Deco epoch, having been inspired by the works of French artists such as Marc Lalique, Gilbert Poillerat, Jean Beaumont and Pierre Chareau, the architect of the legendary “Maison de Verre” (The Glass House). A simply gorgeous space that practically begs the shopper to lose themselves in for a while.
Nicole, Shop B10, The Landmark, Central, 2806-1800
