Timeless Allure

Sofia Martianova: "This fashion story was created as a conscious statement: a woman does not need nightfall or an occasion to look magnificent. My creative task was to capture Timeless Allure in daylight, to show luxury that lives freely, confidently, and without permission. I wanted her to feel radiant under the sun, where elegance is not hidden by darkness but revealed through clarity, movement, and presence."

In the world of fashion, there are brands that simply create beautiful clothes. And then there are brands that create light, emotions, and real stories. SOLANGEL is one of them.

The inner light of the soul is the true embodiment of one’s state—both in the present moment and in life itself. Much must be lived through and understood in order to preserve that crystal clarity of awareness, which not everyone sees at once, not everyone understands immediately, and not everyone is ready to accept right away. Time is essential, for beneath countless irresistible masks, something truly beautiful hides modestly, without seeking attention. To perceive the real essence, one needs the art of reinterpretation. We have named this look "Olivante".

&Beyond has reimagined luxury safari in the Okavango Delta with the launch of two new intimate camps, &Beyond Sandibe Under Canvas and &Beyond Nxabega Under Canvas. Together with the newly refurbished &Beyond Chobe Under Canvas, they complete a seamless seven-night circuit through Botswana’s most iconic wild places, a journey offering a rare combination of adventure, intimacy, and sustainability. Botswana Under Canvas is not a lodge — it’s the wild, felt, heard, and breathed — an experience where comfort and wilderness merge so completely that you become part of it.

In Vilnius, within the historic Pacai Palace at the PACAI Hotel, a new cultural destination has opened its doors — Café de Pacai, inviting guests into the world of refined, world-class dessert culture. Here, in the hands of the café’s chefs, pastry becomes an art form, subtly leaving its mark on the global dessert landscape. Visitors are invited to move beyond the traditional boundaries of confectionery and experience art in its fullest sense.

HOMESTEAD

In a world where true luxury is increasingly measured not by price tags but by the depth of experience, self-care has become the most refined form of balance. Today, luxury is no longer about golden taps and marble bathtubs, but about silence, fresh air, stillness, and the slow, conscious enjoyment of the present moment. It’s the art of listening to your body, respecting your inner rhythm, and choosing what truly allows you to restore. For me, Palanga Life Balance SPA Hotel is the embodiment of this new philosophy — a refined sanctuary in the heart of Lithuania’s seaside capital.
