Jan 28, 2013  |   Contributor: Annalisa Solari  |  1 Comment

While February may be known as the month of love, this year there is a dazzling event that has us drooling more than any box of truffles ever could (an extremely difficult thing to accomplish, might we add.) This February marks the debut of quintessential New York City luxury brand Alice + Olivia’s handbag collection. Our favorite fashionista and fit mommy, Gwyneth Paltrow, was lucky enough to get her hands on one of these chic bags before they even hit stores— and not surprisingly, she is already a fan....

Not for the fashionably weak, these ornamental charms announce the wearer's fearless presence to the world.... Read More

Breguet's Tourbillon Watch Exhibit Celebrates Cenutries of Horological History

Jan 24, 2013  |   Contributor: Tina Stewart

Legendary horologist and founder of luxury watch company Breguet, Abraham-Louis Breguet made timekeeping history in 1801 with the invention of a much-needed, but highly complex watch mechanism. Seeing the adverse effect gravity had on reliable timekeeping, he created the tourbillon— an escapement housed within a mobile carriage that performs a complete rotation every couple of minutes. Basically, the regular repetition of the tourbillon’s variations offsets those made by gravity. It was a tough assignment for Bregeut to pull off, as it requires a certain durability while nonetheless maintaining its light weight.... Read More

Breitling, the luxury watch brand founded in 1884 in St. Imier, Switzerland, is known for its elegantly masculine timepieces referencing the company’s longstanding ties to navigation and aviation.

Tiffany & Co. Renews Iconic Partnership With Elsa Peretti

Jan 2, 2013  |   Contributor: Nicolle Keogh

Lovers of the classic open heart and bean pendants that are signifiers of the luxury jewelry brand Tiffany & Co. need not worry about earlier rumors that their designer, Elsa Peretti, will be ending her 38-year collaboration with the brand. After Tiffany initially said in May that the 72-year-old designer had expressed interest in "retiring" from their relationship, the two parties have solidified their continuing partnership by signing a deal that will earn Peretti $47.3 million over 20 years. It's a small price for the brand to pay to keep some of its best-selling designs for another two decades, considering Tiffany reported revenues of $3.64 billion in 2011 and Peretti designs are responsible for 10 percent of Tif...
