Creative, edgy and glamorous – BR Republic jewellery has it all. Only the finest materials are sourced to produce each piece resulting in jaw dropping high quality designs.
The jewellery has already caught the eyes of celebrities such as Fern Cotton, Jay Z and Beyonce – who had a rams head designed for her which cost around a massive, and rather impressive, £15, 000!
Based in London, BR Republic is a team of designers who also create bespoke pieces. All of the jewellery is equally creative and stylish though and is available at Harvey Nichols.
Prices range from about £255 to £1495.
El Banco is 110-acres with one of the longest stretches of white, sandy beach on the Punta de Mita Peninsula. This lush beachside setting is just north of Puerto Vallarta on Mexico’s Pacific Coast and offers two luxurious beach villas just released for private leasing. From a cost of $2,000 USD (plus 16% tax) per night you can have your own slice of paradise with expansive views of the Bay of Banderas, Marietas Islands, Sierra Madre Mountains and of course El Banco’s long stretch of white-sand beach.
The villa’s have their own unique El Banco style, inspired by Mexico’s Spanish Colonial roots- lots of grand arches, gracious courtyards and hand-craftsmanship. You’ll also find each villa contains every conceivable modern day comfort in a very generous space.
You have access to concierge services to arrange a variety of activities and luxuries, including golf, surf lessons, in-home massage, yoga, restaurant reservations, local excursions, trips to luxury spas and a private chef to prepare up to three meals a day.
The Great British watch and clock maker Dent produce some of the finest and famous timepieces of all time! Simon Cowell was a lucky man recently as he received a £13, 000 watch designed and manufactured by Dent which was a 50th Birthday gift from his brother Nicholas.
The Ministry Chronograph, which is water resistant to 100 metres, sports an impressive 18ct white-gold case, enclosing silver dials with Roman numerals and has a black hand-stitched rolled-edged Louisiana alligator strap with 18ct white-gold buckle. A sophisticated choice for the delightful Mr Cowell indeed!

Track-based supercar club, RS Academy, has announced it is launching the first of its taster days at the Ascari Race Resort in southern Spain. These days will allow potential members to get a flavour of club membership and experience some of the club cars for themselves in situ at one of the club’s venues.
The taster days will be held on various dates in December and the fee will be refunded to anyone who joins the club on the day.
RS Academy is the only supercar club membership that affords members the chance to drive the world’s finest performance cars as their designers intended. The club keeps its cars at the Nürburgring Nordschliefe, Spa Francorchamps and the ultra-exclusive Ascari Race Resort in southern Spain and because they keep their cars on the circuit, they don’t have to water down their fleet with tourers or ‘classics’. They only buy machines that offer the most rewarding and captivating driving experience – track cars like the Ferrari 430 Challenge, Caterham R500 and Porsche 911 GT3 RS.

If you are looking at honeymoon destinations around the Mediterranean then Mykonos is an island you MUST include in your shortlist. The island can be reached either by internal flight from Athens or boat and as soon as you set foot you are hit by an incredibly chilled out vibe thanks to the sun, sea, air and extreme friendliness of the people.
The Island is the San Tropes of Greece, the destination of choice for not only film, football and music stars (to name a few), but also people who appreciate the finer things in life, such as pampering, shopping and a level of customer service that you’ve probably never experienced anywhere else.
We stayed at arguably the finest resort on the island, The Mykonos Grand Hotel & Resort, which is a hugely popular spot for honeymooners and from the outset it’s easy to see why. The resort is situated on the idyllic cliffs overlooking a stunning stretch of the Aegean sea with views directly across to Delos, an uninhabited island rich with Greek history and mythology.
