Shopping in Hong Kong just got a lot cooler thanks to a pop-up in Causeway Bay on Hong Kong Island that features merchandise from girl group NewJeans, one of the hottest K-pop acts on the block. While the girls will not physically be in the city, fans can buy swag relating to the group’s latest song, “Supernatural”.

If you are looking for a unique sustainable gift, then Paper-Roses at PMQ in Central is the place to go, while the IFC Mall in Central is the spot to be with a pop-up by beauty brand Nars celebrating the launch of its latest lipstick collection, and the opening this week of Italian luxury goods brand Valextra’s store.
