Month: December 2018

How to survive the holidays with your career intact

It’s officially the holiday season, and you know what that means. Office parties, maybe Secret Santa gift exchanges, client events, and rich food and drink. Plus the perils of too much alcohol and too much information being shared. Given all of that, how do you survive the holidays with your career intact? Is it really possible to do the holidays at work like a boss?

our top picks in the world of luxury for December 2018

Our Luxury Calendar provides a comprehensive overview of the top events unfolding around the world every month. Some are micro-luxuries (like a really good book) and others are on a grand, epic scale. It’s great fun to compile, and as we polish off our research we always dream a little dream about the entries that most intrigue or excite us – the ones we most passionately want to be a part of. If schedules and money were no object, and we could participate in our top picks in the world of luxury for December 2018, here’s what they’d be. How about you?

the best crazy rich Christmas presents to give this year

Luxury items can just be mad crazy sometimes. For instance, the diamond-encrusted $88,000 cell phone. Or the $100,000 mattress (yes, we’re looking at you, Hästens). You know what we mean: sometimes basic everyday items can come with stratospheric prices. Sometimes the craftsmanship is really that good. And sometimes, putting a brand name or a celebrity into or onto a prosaic item makes some of us willing to pay almost anything to own it. If mad luxury is how you want to roll this holiday, here’s our list of the best crazy rich Christmas presents to give this year.
