The Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas.....

The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas is now one of the NEWEST hotels on the LV Strip, opening sometime mid-December of this year!  I received an email with some amazing pics displaying the luxurious & modern interiors of the rooms...let's just say, I was impressed. Hotels in Vegas have REALLY come a long way, from their colorful TACKY interiors.... to a more modern & sleek style.  


I hear they also have some Art-O-Mat vending machines, which will be another unique feature to the resort, (one of which was featured in the Andy Warhol museum at one point). The vending machines will feature artists from all over the world and with a pull of the lever you can also own a piece of art! How neat is that? I'm looking forward to checking this hotel out this coming Holiday! 

Have you been to Las Vegas? Where have you stayed?

Carry On Only!

As much as I like Chanel, my heart belongs to Hermès since we share an initial. Although these Crocodile suitcases that were posted on Luxist don't have an H on them, they still have me seriously swooning! They were made in the 1930's for Karen Blixen who wrote Out of Africa under the name Isak Dinesen. Hermès unearthed them in their archives and they think that since they were never used they must never have been sent to her in Kenya. The sterling silver and tortoiseshell pieces are engraved with a crown and the initials DBF which stands for Dineson Blixen-Finecke, a combination of her maiden and married names. If you also happen to have the same initials, word has it that they can be yours for the right price. I'd actually be willing to change my initials to own such beautiful specimens of craftsmanship! They certainly put most people's beat up roller bags to shame. But, as we all know, travel is definitely not what it used to be. Le sigh.

Alberto Pinto = Luxury

Alberto Pinto attended the “Ecole de Louvre” in Paris. He refuses to conceive a narrow and closed universes, so he naturally oriented himself towards “big projects. He designs private residences to offices or even palaces for the greats of this world. I love his style!

Fit for a Canine....

No, you're not seeing things, these are actually DOG beds. Very Luxurious ones at that. I have to say they are amazing and good for dogs that aren't going to chew them up to pieces. One of these can run you up to $800. If you'd like to spoil your Doggie just go Dusty's Collection of Hollywood.

A very UNIQUE Hotel

This hotel is so awesome, I had to post it now. Its located in Sao Paolo, Brazil and the name of the hoteL is "UNIQUE", no kidding. Perfect name. The design is so impressive to say the least and RED pool water, how'd you like to swim in that? Beautiful!
