Get Alessandra Ambrosia’s Super Chic Supermodel Look
Posted by Luxury Vox on February 5th, 2009

At the launch of the Russell James portrait collection in New York, Alessandra Ambrosia showed how chic is done, supermodel style. Alessandra looked effortlessly fabulous wearing a strapless draped white dress paired with metallic Christian Louboutin pumps. She kept the look subtle and fun with minimal accessories including a gold pendant necklace and single ring. This look is completely versatile and can be dressed up or down to fit any occasion. You can pair a similar draped dress with black tights, a cropped leather jacket and some booties for a fashion-forward, edgy flair, wear it with gladiators when spring time hits, pile on the accessories for a boho feel, or keep it minimal like Alessandra.

Check out my SLIDESHOW to get the look!

Valentine’s Day is once again just around the corner. Last year, Dimension One Spas introduced the limited edition $20,000Love Tub, and now they are offering the eco-friendly $10,000 Diamond Staycation kit.

D1 founder and CEO Bob Hallam cited that they received a phenomenal response for their $20,000 Amore Bay Valentine’s Day Love Tub last year. But, considering the current market condition, they cut the price in half and introduced the Diamond Staycation kit. This kit of heart-shaped hot tub and eco-friendly luxury gifts makes for a great Valentine’s Day gift.

Eco-designer, Kelly LaPlante cited:

By turning your backyard into an eco-friendly oasis that you can get to without security check points or fuel guzzling airplanes, rejuvenation is just steps away whenever you want it. In essence you’re creating a romantic, luxurious and carbon neutral getaway that’s good for you and good for the planet!

D1’s $10,000 Diamond Staycation Kit will be available both online and through select dealers in the U.S. and Canada.

Iconic 1929 Alfa Romeo up for grabs at Artcurial auction
Posted by Luxury Vox on February 5th, 2009

Unquestionably, the Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 is one of the quintessential Alfa Romeos of its era. This iconic roadster will be up for auction on February 8, 2009 at Artcurial, one of France’s premier auction houses, as a part of the “Classic and Racing Cars” auction. Bidders will be able to bid online through Artfact’s bidding platform dubbed Artfact Live! One of the major highlights of the Artcurial auction will be a 1929 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750, which is expected to go for between $900,000 and $1,000,000, with a mandatory opening bid of $800,000. This car was once the property of well-known author and collector Ralph Stein in 1936. During the ’50s, it was owned by Alec Ullman, who created the 12 Hours of Sebring and the US Grand Prix. It has been lately restored with respect to its original condition and much of its original finish has been kept intact. The front wings had been modified in the ’30s and when the car was restored, it was fitted with new wings similar to the original ones.

The wings made in the ’30s will be given to the highest bidder as part of the car’s history. Other featured cars in the auction include a 2004 Ferrari Enzo, 1949 Delahaye, a 1953 Ferrari that once belonged to Prince Bernhard of Holland, a 1964 Aston Martin and a Porsche 911 Carrera.
