Two months back, the buzz was about Sony’s Rolly, a device that operates like a MP3 player and shakes to the beat on its two wheels. Tough it hasn’t reached the North American market, but to my non-surprise it is performing well and in fact has won the heart of the geeks residing in Japan. Considering its performance chart moving northwards, Sony is undulating a special edition Christmas themed Rolly that comes preloaded with Japanese adaptation of rhymes like Santa Claus is Coming to Town and White Christmas. But to be the proud owner of this Christmas Rolly, you need to be a Japanese national and heart to drop $380 to pick this dancing queen. For shipping, 19 December is been scheduled. Considering this, it can be calculated that it will reach your home on the big day itself.

If you are on your hunt to buy something exclusive for your lady then pay some dignity by not getting settled for anything less than a royal diamond necklace, by Cartier. Designed in a trellis of radiant and formally square-cut diamonds dangling a border of pear-shaped diamond drops, the necklace aims to deliver vigor to the elegant neck it is designed for.
This neckpiece was once a part of the Anne Moen Bullitt collection, whose wardrobe was once described as “incredible collection from the golden age of couture”. Each of the three largest pear-shaped diamonds is escorted by GIA certificates affirming the 5.56 carat diamond is D colour VS2 clarity, 6.98 carats diamond is D colour Si1 clarity and 4.35 carats diamond is D colour Vs clarity.
It is anticipated that the necklace would fetch £200,000-250,000 (approx. $400,000- $500,000) and would be available in the signature styles: fine Jewellery & iconic Jewels from the 20th Century sale at Bonhams in New Bond Street on 6 December.

On my hunt for latest arrivals of handbags, this immaculate beauty invited my curiosity and I couldn’t stop myself gathering more details about this tote. Voluminous as 18 x 12 x 5.5, this Pop Bamboo Top Handle Bag is designed from supple white leather and flaunts a top handle. Its silver-tinge lining respects the frost white shade delightfully offering a Dr. Zhivago feel to this ‘Pop’ bag. Other must-know features of the bag include a zipped top, folding flap with turn-lock finish, hook-on shoulder strip and fully lined central territory. This huge sized Pop Bamboo Handle Bag can beat the dazzling tour bag the women generally look for in terms of quality. The deserving Gucci tag is so spot-on that its’ biting price of $2490 price tag makes you accept it as it is without any bargain. For being the proud owner of this bag, you have to place a pre-order for it at Neiman Marcus.

Unlike Metallic Python Doctor Bag, featured above is a designer creation by a dermatologist-turned-designer Mauro Orietti-Carella who keeps on experimenting. But this one is the result of quite unusual experiment as he injected the striking skins such as python and crocodile with silicone. But must say the out product is quite enthralling—a buttery flashy python skin. It is formed in 2″ structured casing on the top with scrawny leather “belt” handling and snakeskin treatment with a 7″ drop.
Measuring 14″ (L) X 18″ (W), it can be expanded to 5″ or more. A peek into its inner territory would put you across lined creamy soft suede, zippered pocket, cell phone pocket. Even the twist lock is tinted with Gold. Retailed at $2,865, the bag is available in metallic gold and pewter silver.

Someone has rightly said the identity of the successful person gets recognized when he is asked for autograph rather than signature. In Blogosphere, the dialysis occurs when a blog gets mature from a label of a baby blog to the pedestal of a majestic presence. Right on the heels of my expectations, I have managed to crack 500 posts (on EliteChoice) within less than a year (with first post on 9 January).
Ideally I should feature myself with a goblet of champagne but I take the opportunity to introduce my internal spirit to you. This two-legged beast is my mirror image who knows the right direction and cherish past with a present energy and looks forward to ink bigger deals in life (in terms of value as size doesn’t make a difference).
Besides my journalistic profession, I was committed to my bloggers’ desk throughout this year and never intended to beat big sharks like Luxist, LuxuryLaunches, UberGizmo, ShinyShiny, Bornrich, UberReview, Blavish and others but am glad that I earned the deserving recognition from them. Also, a three-month-young network with Elite Fashion Blog Bazaar Community is quite satisfying.
It was an exciting journey to chronicle the world of elite products and break the news on the board, respecting the prerequisite of a journalist and curiosity of my faithful readers. Gluing to my very first post that outlined the purpose of my blog, I am happy to set various laurels in that direction and am geared up to offer an unbeatable common-sense perspective on important topics/ products and events of the day.
I am glad to share with you that the onset of 2008 would mark our first anniversary with a lot more unique features on the cards. And yah from today I am all set to offer next 500 posts coming thick and fast.
This Time Three Cheers To Me And My Love:)

It’s time to remove the dust from the money piling in your bank account and tie some art work to your feet. Pinch yourself as this is possible. The pricey artistic cutting-edge street wear demands a whooping sum of $27,945.
Crafted by Mai Lamore, don’t degrade them by tagging them as mere shoes as they are no less than a work of art. The 18 karat gold heels are quite sensuous and ufffff when it is complemented with the hand dyed silk petals. Well, considering the price tag and beauty attached to it, I would love to buy this pair and won’t dare to carry it. It would be my luxurious installed masterpiece. If this precious gold heel gets success in winning your heart then try saving some bucks right away. Of course, it is far cheaper than the world’s most expensive sandals.

Presence of the expensive jewel-studded coins available in the market is common but usage of gold-coins as a fabric of a dress celebrates the non-commonality. At recently held fashion show at the Bunka Fashion College in Tokyo, models added elegance to the ramp by flaunting dresses loaded with gold coins.

Equipped with almost 1,500 Austrian gold coins, the coins-embedded within a full-length dress weighing 10 kg and two jackets weighing up to 21 kg were prized at more than $1.2 million. I am sure such dresses are restricted to ramp only as their very advent on to the streets would invite thieves. The calculated sum of the coins embedded on to the dress obliges the dress with a price tag of $233,000 (26,900,000) and jacket would fetch $574,000 (66 million yen), if ever eyes auction.
