Luxury track suits? Designer ski pants? Dear reader, those are so 2017. One of our brilliant friends, founder of the obscenely chic luxury brand F.WORDS, has turned us on to the latest and most inspired way to embody both luxurious and sporty style: equestrian chic. An added benefit? On or off a horse, your rear view will receive nearly as much acclaim as Kim Kardashian’s. If you care about such things.
We’re not sure if we actually like rosé, or if we just like the idea of rosé. We only consume it in the most beautiful and serene places, under optimal weather conditions, so it’s kind of hard to say whether it’s the taste, the setting, or the mood that it evokes that makes us reach for this pretty pink libation. Think about it: where does the jet set drink rosé? In Palm Beach, Beverly Hills, St. Tropez, Marrakesh, and Croatia. At the yacht club; in Cabo San Lucas; in Provence.
Love fine food? Passionate about sustainability? Interested in luxury culinary travel? We just learned about a program that hits your trifecta: an unlikely partnership centered around the Ark of Taste. From apricots and melons to lentils and oysters, there’s a world of heritage ingredients and techniques waiting to be tasted — and preserved.
Who says you can’t have it all? Thanks to the new trend toward ugly, clunky, “Dad” sneakers with formal wear – even wedding gowns – you can simultaneously be totally on-trend and totally comfortable. You just have to have the confidence to own and rock the look.
One of the reasons we love covering luxury here at Dandelion Chandelier is because the topic is so complex and the very definition of what luxury is eternally evolves. For example, our very name reflects one of luxury’s enduring inherent dualities: luxurious objects and experiences must be perceived as authentic and deeply rooted in the ground – but they must also soar high above our heads, just out of reach, generating desire and acquisitiveness in the hearts of those who behold them.
