Rolls-Royce has had a busy last 13 months catering to the one percent. After revealing the ‘entry-level’ Ghost in Sept. 2020, the luxury car company returned to the ultra-exclusive with the 19-foot Boat Tail coach in June and revealed the electric Spectre in September, with its consumer debut planned for 2023. 

Rolls is not only continuing to refine cars, but to offer a refined lifestyle with its Connoisseur’s Collection. This includes a recently added luggage range and a champagne chest. This October, the Rolls-Royce Cellarette joins this extended, chic accessory selection.

The Cellarette combines Rolls’ fine engineering and devotion to creating the ultimate in aristocratic entertainment. Roll out a temp-controlled stogie from the Cellarette and every celebration becomes a momentous occasion. 

The luxurious whiskey and cigar chest is designed for performance and presentation. Precision design and hand craftsmanship begin on the outside with a polished aluminum chassis, enveloped by embossed Rolls-Royce Havana leather, and completed with an Obsidian Ayous Open Pore veneer serving tray with a Spirit of Ecstasy inlay. 

The Cellarette’s dark exterior opens to a warm, ambient glow that presents hand-blown lowball glasses, each finished with the exquisite ‘RR’ monogram. Glasses rotate outwards as the unit opens, a charming, theatrical spectacle if there ever was one. 

Two leather-lined spaces open from astride this middle console. On the left, a black anodized aluminum bottle holder accommodates an array of bottle sizes. And on the right, Rolls rolls out a Spanish cedarwood-lined humidor, complete with a hygrometer gauge that references the Rolls-Royce Phantom Gallery clock.  Accompanying the humidor are the perfect accessories for the cigar enthusiast.

Magnetically held at either end of the cigar cassette are two smaller containers — one serving as an ashtray and the other featuring a cigar cutter and an intricately detailed, palladium-plated S.T. Dupont lighter engraved with the Spirit of Ecstasy. The Cellarette even offers a substitute for the non-smoking world: Snack bowls that replace the ashtray, offering a luxurious dish for nuts, olives, and other protein-packed subsidies.

Rolls-Royce engineers built the Cellarette to fit into the rear of any of its elite vehicles. The extravagant cigar and whiskey case also can serve as the centerpiece at any al fresco dining experience, or accompany intimate gatherings.

Aligned to a reputation that says price is no object where ultra luxury is concerned, Rolls’ Cellarette retails for about $55,000, excluding taxes, and is available through Rolls-Royce dealerships; www.rolls-royce.com

If there’s any athlete who knows how to work their luxury brands, it’s Formula One racer Lewis Hamilton. The future Ferrari driver has often been lauded as one of the most fashionable athletes in recent times. Hamilton’s unique fashion sense has seen him partner with numerous luxury brands, including Tommy Hilfiger and Dior. This latest partnership is now causing waves in the sneaker world, as Dior and Lewis Hamilton unveil the B44 Blade sneaker. A nostalgic sneaker with plenty of modern finishes, it’s not just a reflection of Hamilton’s style, but the importance of a stellar collaboration between celebrities and brands. 
Introducing the B44 Blade sneaker

One of the most prominent features of the B44 Blade sneaker is its shape and size. A voluminous shape inspired by the designs of the 2000s, this shoe is bold and dynamic. Available in four colorways - blue, orange, purple, and green - this sneaker features tonal fabric panels with the “Dior” logo placed on the uppers, heel, and sides. This design comes with the Blade insert on the sole. Fully equipped with modern features, the right shoe also comes with an embedded NFC chip under the sole that serves as a digital certificate of authenticity and early access to the latest Dior news.

When the dad shoe trend came into the spotlight, New Balance’s sneakers became the most iconic shoe at the moment. Not only did the brand’s chunky design provide ample focus but it proved that comfort could be chic. However, these ‘dad’ shoes didn’t provide the luxury or sophistication needed to qualify under the ‘quiet luxury’ trend. However, Loro Piana is taking the famed New Balance sneaker and giving it an Italian leather makeover. With the 990v6, Loro Piana and New Balance are making the chunky shoe into a classic and luxurious design with craftsmanship and quality to prove it. While this partnership is on-trend and modern, it comes with quality that spans years. 
Loro Piana and New Balance’s casual luxury

Unlike your regular New Balance sneakers, the 990v6 is made of premium Italian materials that make it worth the $1500 price tag. A soft grey nubuck and tonal mesh panels outline the shoe, providing a soft tactile material and breathability for the user. Providing a splash of color are burgundy accents of Loro Piana’s rare Pecora Nool along the heel and tongue, giving the design a moody and luxurious feel. On the inside, the shoe doesn’t lose value as it comes ready with New Balance’s ENCAP midsole technology.
