THESE BOOTS WERE
MADE FOR WALKING
You’re sure to kick up a fuss in these
metal-tip toed cowboy boots from
Off-White. The brand’s designer Virgil
Abloh has put his signature Helvetica
typeface stamp on these boots and
the outcome is a western style with a
modern twist. The loop tabs ensure
they can be easily pulled off, although
we’re sure you’ll be stomping around
in them for some time. You really can
walk the walk and talk the talk in these
babies, providing you’re not opposed to
the $2083 price tag.

GRIN AND BEAR IT
This limited-edition porcelain Kutani
Be@rbrick from MediCom has taken
collectables to the next level.
The pop-culture inspiration behind the
range of figurines is partly responsible
for their rapid success. A worldwide
sensation, these figurines are handcrafted
and moulded out of Kutani-yaki (a
Japanese porcelain) without the use
of machinery. Intended as a piece of
collectable art rather than a toy, the
figurine takes approximately four years
to create from start to finish. At just
28cm tall, $5562 seems a rather steep
bill to foot, but, rest assured, they sell like
hotcakes. selfridges.com
A NECK AHEAD
This necklace from Bvlgari is
quite possibly the only snake you
wouldn’t mind slithering around
your neck. The ‘Serpenti’ necklace
boasts an enviable resumé of 18
carats of white gold and pavé
diamonds aplenty. Naturally, such
a wonderful piece of jewellery
comes far from cheap, so the price
of $164,900 is little surprise. This
necklace, the sheer definition of
luxury, is expertly made in Italy
and adored the world over. You
certainly won’t allow this piece to
get tangled up in your jewellery
box. bulgari.com
