It’s incredible that a $1.9 million platinum handbag encrusted with 2,182 diamonds totaling 208 carats by designer Ginza Tanaka is now available for sale. First unveiled in Tokyo during a fashion show in June 2007, the bag managed to invite eyeballs and is now in high spirits to be featured around London in honor of London Jewelry Week. The handbag features a diamond shoulder strap that is detachable and can be worn as a necklace with the huge 8-carat pear-shaped diamond glued on the face of the bag and can also be worn as a brooch.

Well, you can consider the opportunity of inking a neat deal here but cause security reasons; the site where the sale would happen is not disclosed publicly ahead of sale. It is clear that now you can vouch for the right place and right time guessing.

The fashion facet of EliteChoice is pro-active in unveiling the latest designs and patterns available in accessories and foot wears. Undeniably the designer collection is not easily spotted and hence we here keep our eyes and ears open to get the insight of the ongoing parties, hence scanning the fashion divas from head to toe. If you can recall, four-months back, I featured here £1,800 heel-less high heels by Briton Antonio Berardi (witnessed the eyelids of over 20k readers on a single day) and today we are here to feature another competitive sample of sandals.

Pictured above is a $2 million sandal from Stuart Weitzman that was sported at the Le Vian party in Las Vegas. The silver leather designer heels flaunt 185 carats of tanzanite and 28 carats of diamonds.

The frontage strip sports a slim belt of diamonds with fitted profound gemstones to arc around the ankle with a 16 carat pear-shaped tanzanite plunge bordered by diamonds that swings over the face of the foot. The stones on the sandals seem to be mounted unswervingly onto the leather and hardly seem to be detachable.

It seems the born rich attitude of the Gen X needs to be polished with the evolving treasures equipping the minds of the elite class. There have been talks about luxurious products viz. painting worth $2.1 million, Charlie Chaplin’s elite camera, Crystal-made museum, most expensive house in US, World’s most-expensive hotel , even lavish dog house that invited eyeballs.

But a lad called Amit Malhotra, resident of Ludhiana in India seems to have a big heart that he borrowed money to meet his luxurious needs. Yes, this crazy guy has spent Rs1.5 million ($32,000) for getting a mobile number (9780000000).

True, the hunt for getting an exotic number that even enters into deaf ears is years old but the big deal about this number is it has become most-expensive mobile number ever sold in India. I hope you are well-introduced with the world’s most expensive mobile number “666 6666″ that generated the sales of $2.7 million in Qatar.

Amit chased this opportunity at the auction scheduled by Hutch. It wasn’t an easy race for the owner of the most-expensive mobile number in India but his mania for the luring number invited the monetary support from his friends, relatives, acquaintances and incumbents.

This elite USB stick is a blessing not for all geeks. Its cost factor is what debars many, forcing them think twice to feel it. I would love to have this device but won’t prefer to spend this big amount and would wish if someone could gift me this.

This golden USB stick is decorated with gold and diamonds and offers you the opportunity to take either 14 or 18 carat gold stick. Also, you have the full freedom to take stick without diamond. It’s retailed at $ 3,500 (with diamonds) and $2,800 without it.

But one thing is for sure that this USB would act more as an accessory than a device. It will act as a transitory tool, thereby elevating your image in your official circle at least.

The specks don’t say even a word about its capacity but at such a cost one expects to have a 256 MB stick.
