May 23, 2013 | Contributor: Nicolle KeoghWhen it comes to guys’ sunglasses, the standard old athletic style is no longer the only option. Men’s sunglasses have evolved as a trendy accessory and are an important part of the outfit.

That said, it’s no wonder the size, shape and color of men’s frames have become varied and unique to befit a wide range of consumers with different tastes, styles, and personalities. Take a look at this summer’s hottest trends below, and don’t forget that you don’t need to settle on just one pair— build a collection so you can pick and choose a style depending on how you feel on any given day!...

May 13, 2013 | Contributor: Nicolle KeoghBehind the most established and successful of luxury brands, we can usually find one thing in common: a rich history.

Ghurka is still a relatively recent label, but in its short time in the luxury space the brand has certainly made a name for itself. Today, the iconic Ghurka bag is as international as it is American and sticks true to the founder’s goal of providing a lifetime of use and enjoyment to consumers.... Read More |

May 1, 2013 | Contributor: Nicolle KeoghLuxury beauty mavens know what they like and where they want to spend their money. Some choose to splurge on lip stains while others swear by top-label mascara tubes. But one product that is commonly overlooked is the actual tools you’re using to apply your makeup.

Apr 29, 2013 | Contributor: Deidre WoollardJust about everyone these days is releasing products that have a Great Gatsby tie-in, and who can blame them? The Gatsby film by Baz Luhrman starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan exquisitely represents the suave and swanky style of the 1920's, and we're thrilled that the anticipation of the film's release is setting a trend in fashion and jewelry. Because let's be honest, who doesn't enjoy having the opportunity to throw on a fringey flapper dress or getting to see a man styled in a dapper suit? Even better, the film has inspired a bevvy of dazzling jewelry complete with Art Deco themes and strands of pearls. From bracelets to crystallized hairpieces and statement drop earrings, the look is feminine, architectural and of course, sparkling.... Read More |
