A Fresh Start
And weβre back. Riding the wave of new year renewal, our luxury brands have made keeping your resolutions easy β with indulgent Veganuary menus and rejuvenating beauty therapies β as we celebrate the Year of the Snake and banish the January blues with Burns Night.

Whether you’ve resolved to go plant-based with Veganuary or are taking some time off after December’s indulgence with low- and no-alcohol alternatives, our menus and mocktails prove that being mindful doesn’t have to mean missing out. From vegan hot dogs to sparkling wines, discover a range of exciting options: each as delicious as it is nourishing.

The City is alive and kicking with the energy of the new year. You know what they say: new year, new you. Returning to the hustle and bustle, unveil a fresh version of yourself with the help of our brands and beauty experts, including everything from eye treatments to bespoke tailoring. We’ve put together a guide to January’s luxury launches and therapies β all you need to reinvent yourself, and to look and feel your absolute best.

January brings the Spring Festival β and heralds the arrival of the Year of the Snake. A symbol of wisdom, charm, elegance and transformation, the zodiac inspires us to shed our skin and embrace the opportunities for change that the new year brings. Itβs also a time for giving, and our luxury maisons are celebrating in style with a selection of exclusive Lunar New Year activations to help you get red-envelope ready for the family reunion.

Burns Night: a much-needed spot of warmth in the calendar: filled with poetry, song, speeches and hearty fare βΒ from haggis to haunches of venison βΒ as well as those all-important drams of whisky to toast Scotland’s national bard. The Libertine is planning its own event, while Fortum’s boasts all you need to celebrate at home. And, excitingly, Tomoka has a special offer exclusive to our newsletter readers.
