Number of followers: 290K

Favorite thing: Travel cocktail kit, $275. At Stephen Kenn. Says Janelle: “The travel cocktail kit from Stephen Kenn is the best way to keep the frenzy of holiday travel at bay. Instead of relying on the basic selection of booze from the flight attendants’ meager liquor cabinet, pack your goods ahead of time and mix yourself a proper Manhattan up high and in style.”

Vacheron Constantin’s 270th anniversary: A new chapter in luxury horology
Vacheron Constantin's 270th anniversary collection: Redefining luxury horology in 2025
The Traditionnelle Tourbillon in dark blue.

Vacheron Constantin is currently the world’s oldest continuously operating watch manufacturer with 270 years dedicated to the fine art of timekeeping. To commemorate their anniversary, the Geneva-based house has recently released a collection at Watches and Wonders 2025 that pays homage to the brand’s distinct heritage and showcases their technical mastery of complicated watches. These latest timepieces are sure to excite both watch collectors and connoisseurs. 
Les Cabinotiers Solaria Ultra Grand Complication

At the heart of the new collection is the Les Cabinotiers Solaria Ultra Grand Complication, a watch that expands the possibilities of what is possible in horology. A white gold masterpiece, it contains 41 complications and 13 patents within its 45mm case and is the result of more than eight years of intricate design. Considered the most complex wristwatch ever made, the Solaria has a double-sided display with celestial indications, a Westminster minute repeater with seven patent-protected innovations, and a sunrise/sunset tracker based on the wearer’s geographic coordinates. On the front dial are sapphire discs that display moonphases, tides, and the zodiac signs, with the caseback revealing sidereal time and the constellations. Despite the intricate features, the movement remains elegant at only 15.6mm thick, further proof of Vacheron Constantin’s technical mastery.

Synonymous with the fall and winter seasons, there’s no denying that UGGs have established themselves as the ultimate cold-weather shoe. This has allowed us to expect many designs geared around warmth and comfort. However, in its latest campaign, UGG wants to shift that perspective and establish itself as a technical and everyday footwear option that can fill many roles. Along with Los Angeles-based designer and artist Reese Cooper, the Santa Barbara-based brand has updated two of their famed styles to be more durable and technical. These boots are perfect for the upcoming festival season and aren’t just for keeping you warm. Cooper’s aesthetic touch gives the designs a more edgy, street-style look, ready for different terrains and environments. Far from the UGG boots you know and wear, these reimagined silhouettes are a one-of-a-kind grab.
