Bentley Continental GT SnakeSkin by Dartz

Filed under: Luxury Cars & Autos



We know what you've been thinking: I love my Bentley so much I want to cover it in snakeskin, but not the flashy kind I saw on those cowboy boots. (Can we call it, or can we call it?) Fortunately Russian tuner firm Dartz has just the solution for you.

If the company name sounds familiar, it could be because they're the ones responsible for the Prombron luxury sport-utility vehicle. But while the whale-foreskin interior on the Prombron was real, the snakeskin on this Bentley Continental GT isn't. Instead, it's a texture applied to a white vinyl wrap. The interior and wheels have been treated to match, while the rest has been blacked out for a high-contrast, shine-free look.

Motley Crue Journals Of The Damned Set


Just how much do people love Motley Crue? The band is hoping about $500 worth. The self-proclaimed "world's most notorious rock band" has announced that Eleven Seven Music/Motley Records will release vinyl configurations of their current hit album "Saints of Los Angeles" along with their first five classic studio albums, "Too Fast For Love" (1981); "Shout at the Devil" (1983); "Theatre of Pain" (1985); "Girls, Girls, Girls" (1987) and "Dr. Feelgood" (1989) in a limited edition leather box set, "Journals Of The Damned," containing all six vinyl releases. The run of 500 is individually numbered and also contains a Shout At the Devil Era lithograph signed by all four members of the band. It goes on sale today.

Filed under: Handbags

This Ombre Logo Basket Tote's versatile coloring means it can pass nicely through the winter as an icy blue, and then through the spring also if dressed up as a sky or pastel blue. It's shimmery, it's simple, and although it's not totally outrageous it's definitely an acquired taste. Fendi makes this bag out of coated vinyl with textured white leather trim, plus it has a smooth vinyl lining, an open top, a flat base, and 3 interior pockets. It's available at eLuxury for $1,030, plus they have also have a version in red.

ReDO Folding Chair

Filed under: Decor

An aluminum-framed folding chair is more likely to be on the sidelines at the child's soccer game with cheering parents than in a well-appointed garden, but the ReDo Chair by John Paul Plauche is redefining the classic in an upscale way. The limited edition chair has black leather webbing instead of the more traditional and much cheaper plastic or vinyl, yet it is lightweight and folds up in the same way as the original chair because the aluminum frame is that of one of the original chairs. The armrests are finished hardwood. Price: $2,500.

One of my favorite sites, SonicFlare.com, has a great post on high end turntables.  Though he makes no mention of the Caliburn turntable, Josh talks about the Monaco player, the Gaia, and an update on the Garrard 301.  Lots of fun links for wax lovers, so take a peek.
