CHIC CHAT with Carina Lau

How has your taste in jewellery changed throughout the years?

I look for various styles and collect different pieces at different times. I used to like diamonds - in different colours - and pearls. But now I like something green, like emeralds.

How do you match jewellery with your outfits?

I wear a simple piece of jewellery like earrings or a bracelet, something casual but cool.

What is Serpenti to you?

It's very special to me. I was born in the Year of the Snake. I think snakes are mysteriously charismatic, and they symbolise wealth.

What is luxury to you?

Luxury is health to me. Health is everything.
