Style Edit: Boghossian's Lirya collection brings aquamarines, rubellites, green tourmalines, moonstones and other gems together in vivid high jewellery pieces
explore the beauty of contrast with the confidence and grace that Boghossian does. With the Lirya collection, the Geneva-based house unveils what it describes as a 'secret garden of enchantment' – a realm where opposing forces come together to create sublime harmony. In this case, the 'forces' are pairs of vibrant gemstones, masterfully delivered as pieces that are timeless and quietly transformative.

At the heart of Lirya is the idea of unity through contrast. The collection brings together aquamarines, rubellites, green tourmalines, moonstones and other gems in compositions that feel effortlessly fluid and elevated. Rather than one gem overpowering another, these stones form balanced narratives that celebrate individuality while highlighting a deeper interconnectedness. The result is a luminous choreography of colour and form.

Lirya speaks not only to visual beauty but to emotional resonance. The pieces are crafted with intention: shapes unfold gracefully, colours blend in unexpected ways. They reflect a balance between strength and softness, stillness and movement. In this way, Lirya becomes more than jewellery: it becomes a statement of continuity and transformation.

From tanzanites paired with moonstones, to morganites set alongside verdant tourmalines, each piece offers its own distinct presence within Lirya's enchanted garden. Since its debut at The European Fine Art Foundation (TEFAF) in New York, the collection has captivated visitors to Boghossian's Geneva and London boutiques, elevating the brand's already stellar reputation for visionary design.

What makes Lirya distinctive is its ability to maintain the integrity of each gemstone's brilliance while achieving a remarkable overall harmony. The name itself whispers of lyrical grace, echoing the maison's belief in the convergence of strength and delicacy, innovation and heritage.

Smurfs movie review: Rihanna can't save subpar return of the beloved blue creatures
2/5 stars Smurfs opens with the population of Smurfs' Village harmoniously singing the 'Happy Song' from the original 1980s animation series featuring the little blue creatures. As the warm glow of nostalgia creeps in, director Chris Miller (Shrek the Third) cuts to Papa Smurf on the decks, blasting out an obnoxious pop track. 'Now that's what I call a banger,' he yells. This unfortunately sets the tone for the latest film about Belgian comic artist Peyo's cute creations. Play Smurfs is primarily a marketing tool for Rihanna, who voices the blonde-haired Smurfette and provides material for the soundtrack.

Golf, what's the point of it all? Major winner Scheffler says, ahead of Open quest
One would imagine three-time major champion Scottie Scheffler would be desperate to continue American domination of the British Open and lift the Claret Jug for the first time this week at Royal Portrush. The 29-year-old is the bookmakers' favourite after a stunningly consistent season, including winning the PGA Championship and during his pre-tournament press conference on Tuesday he spoke of his growing love for links golf. But when asked how long he celebrates his victories, an introspective Scheffler veered off into questioning what was even the point of being the best golfer in the world. 'It feels like you work your whole life to celebrate winning a tournament for like a few minutes,' Olympic champion Scheffler said. 'It only lasts a few minutes, that kind of euphoric feeling. 'To win the Byron Nelson Championship at home, I literally worked my entire life to become good at golf to have an opportunity to win that tournament. You win it, you celebrate, hug my family, my sister's there, it's an amazing moment. Then it's like, OK, what we eating for dinner? Life goes on.' Bryson DeChambeau signs autographs by the 9th green at Royal Portrush. Photo: AP Scheffler has been world number one for 112 consecutive weeks and has earned more than $87 million in prize money on the PGA Tour, and says he loves living out his dreams.

Behind the counter at Hong Kong's first cheese omakase
Almost everyone in Hong Kong knows Laughing Cow: the grinning red cow on a round blue-and-white box, packed with foil-wrapped triangles of soft, tangy cheese with an unmistakably artificial plastic sheen. Surprisingly, it's also beloved in France, the land of strict appellations and strong opinions on dairy. For Jeremy Evrard , owner of the much-buzzed-about cheese omakase Roucou , that was where the obsession started. 'My mother would buy La Vache qui rit at the supermarket. I always kept the label. I've been fascinated by those red cows,' he says. Why? He shrugs: 'When you're a kid, you just do things.' What began as a casual habit became a collection of more than 1,000 cheese labels, the oldest dating back to the 1930s.

He throws his hands up, laughing. 'They just kept coming and I didn't know what to do.' Being friends with a cheesemaker helps. One such friend named Jean François started saving labels for him once he caught wind of the collection. 'It spiralled from there.' Evrard is a self-described 'cheese freak'. 'I grew up with this dairy obsession. I don't know why. My parents aren't in the business. My mother is the worst cook ever,' he chuckles. 'She wouldn't mind me saying it – it's true.' He calls his love of cheese 'self-built'. Instead of visiting vineyards when he was old enough to drink, he would visit dairy farms. Even so, young Jeremy couldn't have guessed where his love of cheese, and its packaging, would eventually lead him. A sushi roll with organic Camembert at Roucou. Photo: courtesy Roucou
