Streets of Monaco Yacht [LUXURY]


I initially contemplated the theme "[RAUTICAL]" for this post. It seemed fitting as this is a rather radical nautical concept. Imagine you're yacht designed to a tee, as a recreation of your favourite city on earth. Now let's say your favourite city on earth was Monaco. With price tag of about $1Billion, your private city on the sea consists to scale constructions of the Monte Carlo Casino, Hotel de Paris, Cafe de Paris, as well as the Grand Prix course, functioning as a go-kart course on the deck of this 500-foot watercraft. Other features include multiple swimming pools, a multi-use court for basketball and tennis that doubles as a helipad, a submarine, an interior "oasis" area, space for up to 16 guests and 70 staff members, a spa, and, of course, a swim-up jacuzzi bar. I'd like to sit down with the designer and create the city of Shangri-La.

Moet & Chandon Launches "Buckets of Bubbles" [LUXURY]


Famed French champagne house Moët & Chandon has come out with a cool new traveling set called Buckets of Bubbles (above). The set includes four mini champagne flutes accompanied by four mini bottles of refreshing Moët & Chandon Nectar Impérial bubbly in a chic carrying case that doubles as an ice bucket. Unlike some special champagne sets which charge a premium for the privilege, Buckets of Bubbles is actually something of a bargain. It retails for approximately $34.99 but offers the equivalent amount of champagne as a 750 ml bottle of Nectar Imperial, which retails for $49.99 and doesn't include the trimmings. Moët & Chandon, founded in 1743, is one of the cornerstones of LVMH's luxury empire.

Chanel x Segway [GADGETS]


I don't think most people who ride Segway's are fashion monters, but this bad boys is fitter with a Chanel 2.55 handbag on the handlebars , quilted handgrips, quilted mud flaps in matching black leather, and Chanel badges on the wheels, steering head and handlebars. This baby tops out at 12mph, but I suppose if you’re really important people will wait for you.

The Oculus Superyacht

I was watching The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen the other day and was mesmerized by Captain Nemo's ship the the Nautilus. I've now discovered for a cool $100 million I can get my own mini version. Kind of...
If had the means to buy myself an enormous luxury superyacht I'd have a hard time deciding between something sleek and discreet and something trendy, modern, and ready to make a statement. The Oculus Superyacht is the new flagship for Schöpfer Yachts and would fall into the second category, with such futuristic styling it barely looks like a yacht at all. 250 feet long, the exterior design is inspired by the creatures of the sea and is meant to represent a large jaw and eye socket when open. Interior features include 2 levels with luxurious 12 foot ceilings, a cylindrical double height dining area, and room to accommodate up to 12 guests comfortably.

Ralph Lauren Alligator Driving Loafers


Ralphy is hurting them with these! I'll take all all 5 and first class ticket to Málaga.

...continuing his theme of ultra-luxe accessories in go-to-hell colors with his latest offering for men, the Garda Alligator Driver (above). The classic Italian driving shoe is given a stylish twist in brilliantly-hued genuine alligator skin with equestrian hardware. The loafers come in five colors: Emerald Green, Cherry Red, Marine Blue, Purple, and Black, and are priced at $3,800 a pair. For an additional $920, you can also get a matching alligator skin belt (available in most of the same colors) with an engravable sterling silver buckle. Lauren has also made belts and boots in vivid alligator for women, but it's in the men's items that these colors really pop.
