THE ‘Tyffyn’ is a beautifully designed lunch box, thoughtfully made using the best design features available on the market.

It comes in two sizes – the 600ml size, which retails for £43, comprises two containers and the 1,000ml version (£54) comes with three containers, each with a separator to keep several food items apart.

One container is a deeper size and all of them fit on top of each other and are placed in the base, so that the vacuum insulated, double-walled, copper-coated, stainless-steel shell can fit over the top.

This feature helps to control the temperature inside, keeping food piping hot or cold for up to six hours. The stainless-steel latches on either side keep everything locked in place to help avoid any messy leaks.

This unique tiffin is designed with thoughtfulness for the user. It comes with a matching Vaya’s Bagmat – a shoulder bag that unzips to become a table mat with a pouch for storing cutlery. This can make lunch times really enjoyable and special by giving a feeling of luxury and indulgence.

Once you’ve enjoyed your lunch, the Tyffyn can be packed away into the Bagmat, which is

specially coated to make it waterproof and stain resistant. The compact size fits into a handbag or briefcase, and buyers can choose from cheetah print, ombre, magical unicorns

and classical white along with other fun designs.

These lunchboxes also have a collapsible handle and the containers are leak resistant with lids that have an ingenious heat protective finger grip. Both the containers and lids are top rack dishwasher safe.

The Tyffyns are also ecofriendly and BPA free, and can be purchased online from Amazon or Vaya’s website at vayalife.com

LOOK forward to indulging in your favourite curries, soups, salads and gulab jamuns with Vaya Tyffyn, VacuTherm Insulated tiered lunch boxes.

Made from stainless steel, Vaya Tyffyn keeps food hot or cold for up to six hours and comes in array of chic designs including cheetah, denim, gold and silver. These lightweight lunch boxes are available in two sizes, 600ml or 1,000ml.

The partitions are ideal for delicious leftovers from the night before without creating a mess.

Kim Kardashian's SKIMS opens on Regent Street, in the same country her love life won't stop making headlines

Kim Kardashian's SKIMS opens on Regent Street, in the same country her love life won't stop making headlines

Key Highlights:

  • SKIMS has opened its first European flagship store, a 12,000 square foot site on London's Regent Street, its biggest single move into the UK market to date.
  • The store was designed by Rafael de Cárdenas, the same architect behind SKIMS' New York flagship, and features a nude sculpture by longtime collaborator Vanessa Beecroft.
  • The opening lands in the same summer Kardashian's relationship with Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton has been playing out publicly across Britain, from the Cotswolds to a shared trip through Tokyo.
There are a handful of people on earth whose store openings and whose love lives both make global news in the same breath. Kim Kardashian is one of them, and this summer, both have happened in the same country at the same time.
SKIMS, the shapewear brand she built into a multi-billion-dollar label, has just opened its first flagship store outside America, taking over a 12,000 square foot corner site on Regent Street. It's a genuine landmark for the brand. It's also, almost incidentally, happening in the exact country where her relationship with Lewis Hamilton has been playing out in public for months.

What does the store actually feel like inside?

Walk in, and the first thing you see is a towering nude sculpture by artist Vanessa Beecroft, lit from above by an oversized ceiling disc, framed by curved walls in the same fleshy, neutral tones SKIMS uses on its packaging. It's the kind of entrance built for a photo, and it's clearly meant to be one. The rest of the two-level store follows the same language throughout: soft curves, cream and beige everywhere, cabinets rounded enough to double as seats. It was designed by Rafael de Cárdenas, the same studio behind SKIMS' Fifth Avenue flagship in New York, so the London store deliberately echoes that one rather than starting from scratch.
Kardashian called London "one of the most inspiring fashion cities" in a statement marking the opening, and the choice to make it SKIMS' first flagship outside America wasn't accidental. Inside, shoppers get access to the brand's full UK range in one place for the first time, shapewear, loungewear, menswear, and the NikeSKIMS collaboration line, rather than piecing it together online.

Why has she been so visible in Britain this year?

Because the store isn't the only reason. Kardashian's relationship with Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton became public in February, and since then the pair have been photographed together at a private members' club in the Cotswolds, walking arm in arm through Tokyo, and browsing a Vivienne Westwood store on the same trip. It's the kind of relationship that seems to generate a new set of paparazzi photos every few weeks, in a different country each time.
Not everyone is convinced it's as simple as it looks. Some entertainment outlets have reported anonymous claims that the relationship functions partly as a "showmance," a strategically timed pairing rather than a purely private one. Neither Kardashian nor Hamilton has addressed that characterisation directly, and the two have a longer history than the recent headlines suggest, having first been photographed together at a London awards show back in 2014, years before either was linked to the other romantically.

Is any of this actually connected?

Not officially. There's no suggestion the store opening and the relationship were planned to overlap, and SKIMS has been building toward a European flagship since at least 2021, when a smaller Paris pop-up tested the same visual identity on a much smaller scale. But the coincidence is hard to ignore: for a few months this year, the two most-photographed parts of Kim Kardashian's life, the brand she built and the relationship everyone's trying to decode, have both been unfolding on the same small island, a few hundred miles apart from each other at most.

For a woman whose entire career has run on being watched, Britain's had an unusually good seat this year.
