As we head towards the end of the year, there's plenty happening across the worlds of fashion, beauty and lifestyle. It's the time of year when brands really start to pull out the stops, whether that's with new launches, creative collaborations or experiences that give us a reason to get out and explore. Here are a few things we think are worth knowing about.
SÉZANE OPENS IN CHELSEA
If you're a Sézane fan, there's another London store to add to your list. The French brand has opened on the King's Road in Chelsea, and the new space feels much like stepping into a Parisian apartment. Think vintage furniture, warm interiors and plenty of the pieces that have made the brand such a favourite. It's a lovely addition to the neighbourhood.

TWP ARRIVES IN LONDON
There's a new name to know on Bruton Street. New York-based label TWP has opened its first London store in Mayfair, bringing its relaxed take on American dressing to the capital. If you're not familiar with the brand, it's particularly good for easy tailoring, great shirts and those pieces that make getting dressed feel a little easier. The store is worth a look, too, with vintage finds and original details giving it plenty of personality.

HUNTER'S CHRISTMAS POP-UP
A giant boot box in Covent Garden? Hunter is making its Christmas pop-up hard to miss. Opening on the East Piazza this November, the space will be filled with winter essentials, exclusive pieces and a few nice extras, including monogramming and personalisation. It's a fun excuse to stop by if you're already in the area—and perhaps get a head start on your Christmas shopping.
From 9-25 November
THE TOKYO EDITION'S JADE ROOM GETS A MAKEOVER
The Jade Room and Garden Terrace at The Tokyo EDITION, Toranomon, has reopened with a new focus on Japanese Wagyu. The menu brings together seasonal ingredients and a mix of Japanese and Western cooking influences, with a few tableside touches along the way. Add the impressive wine list and the setting, and it sounds like a very good reason to book a table next time you're in the city. This is deffo one for your Tokyo restaurant list.

ROUJE TEAMS UP WITH REEBOK
Rouje and Reebok might not be the most obvious pairing, but the new capsule makes a lot of sense. Taking inspiration from '80s aerobics, the collection gives Reebok's Freestyle trainers a French-girl spin, with burgundy details and a palette of navy, ecru and cream. There are high- and low-top versions, and both feel like an easy way to add a little something different to your everyday trainer rotation.
