Cars and SUVs offer options for you and your family to have utility as well as luxury. Many high end car manufacturers today realize that people are looking for their vehicles to be a little more versatile in what they offer, so manufacturers have more options for vehicles now than they ever have.

BMW’s SUV Options
BMW_X1

The BMW name has long been synonymous with luxury, quality, and advanced technology when it comes to car manufacturing. The X1 xDrive36i is one of BMW’s SUV lines that offer many great opportunities for both utility and luxury. On the luxury end of things you can find:

·         Harman Kardon Surround Sound system.

·         Heated front seats.

·         BMW apps which allow you to connect to social networking, music PlugIn and video from your Iphone to the BMW display screen, and other “integrated web-connected features”.

·         BMW tablet DVD system.

·         BMW iPad holder.

·         Heated steering wheel.

On the utilitarian end of options a customer could purchase:

·         18” light-alloy wheels with performance run flat tires.

·         Paddle shifters on the steering wheel.

·         Twin power turbo.

·         All-wheel drive.

·         Inline 6-cylinder xDrive.

·         Park assistance.

Porche Cayenne SUV
Porsche_Cayenne

Porche has typically been thought of for their amazing sports cars like the 911 or the Boxter. But in the last number of years their answer to the SUV generation was the Cayenne and it has been able to hold its own as part of the historic Porche family of vehicles. You can find tremendous luxury with this vehicle in the:

·         Thermally and noise insulated privacy glass.

·         Heated windshield.

·         Burmester high-end surround sound.

·         Porsche rear seat entertainment.

·         Voice control.

The performance side of the Cayenne is quite impressive as well. It is like they were able to take the aspects that have made their cars great performers and combine it with a luxury SUV.

·         8-speed Tiptronic S with auto start stop function.

·         Sport design package with or without side skits.

·         Off-road skid plate protection.

·         4.8 liter V8 engine.

·         Integrated dry-sump lubrication with two-stage oil pumping.

·         4 Valves per cylinder.

·         Direct fuel injection.

·         Return-less fuel system.

The Infiniti M56x Sedan
infiniti-m56-sedan

Infiniti has made a name for itself amongst the elite class of luxury cars. Their M56x sedan model is one that is notable for being a car that can be a little more aggressive if need be. In fact one ad for the vehicle states that it is “for those who prefer the backcountry to the country club”. It has 5.6 liter V8 engine, and can go from 0-60 in 4.9 seconds. It also has all-wheel drive and a special ‘snow mode’ that makes it great in the winter and with snow. As for luxury it seats up to 5 adults, has climate-controlled leather seats, and Bose Studio Surround Sound.

Affordability with Luxury Cars

These vehicles and all they come with may seem like they are just out of your reach, but they really aren’t. You can find dealerships with good deals, fair financing and leasing options, and even used cars to help with the budget boundaries you may have. And for the extra options you can check out places like Priority 1 Automotive where you can purchase plenty of family and luxury options for your car.

Today it can be worth it to spend a little more and invest in a quality luxury car. They are the most up to date with technology and safety, as well as options to keep you family in comfort and travel happiness.

At 66 years old, we could think that David Bowie would just enjoy a peaceful retirement. Well, we would be wrong. This beginning of the year shows the return of the british singer with the hypnotic voice. A first single called Where are you now? was revealed as you can watch it in the video above. A soft ballad under the travel theme. According to the star manager, a new full album is coming in march 2013.

Fashion revolution #1: The Delphos dress

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Every month, LuxuryActivist will highlight one special focus on fashion. We call it Fashion revolutions, a great way to talk about fashion history. This month, the highlight goes to the famous Delphos dress by Mariano Fortuny.

Conde_nast_fortuny_dress
Ms Condé Nast with the Delphos dress

Mariano Fortuny y Madrazo was born in 1871 in Granada – Spain. He opened a Fashion house in 1906 and continued until 1946. After a career as Lighting engineer for theaters, he and his wife, Henrietta, started a fashion business. Influenced by different ballets and dramas played at the Theater, Mariano Fortuny had a specific taste for classical aesthetics although he believed that artists and designers should always look ahead and innovate.

For many years, Mariano and his wife lived in a Palazzo in Venice, a place which brought a great inspiration for his fashion. And in a perpetual engagement towards the future and a certain idea of avant-gardism, Mariano Fortuny completely refused the style of this beginning ofthe century. Women were still linked to a certain idea of classicism and the corset, completely abandoned in the 20’s was still around. Blouses and dresses were full in front and puffed into a “pigeon breast” shape of the early 20th century that looked over the narrow waist, which sloped from back to front and was often accented with a sash or belt. Necklines were supported by very high boned collars.
1900s_fashion

It was also the rise of Haute-couture in Paris and some names like Poiret was already trying to move away from this sort of classic bourgeoisie allure. The beginning of the 20th century opened a new door to elegance and taste. The universal exhibition of 1900 in Paris celebrated the new dreams that the new century had to offer.

And the same was with Mariano Fortuny. His aim was to propose a new feminine look, free from all the 19th century patterns. His inspiration ? Mostly his Palazzo and also a great admiration for ancient greek clothing. For him, this hellenist style was considered as airy and that accentuated the natural curves of women’s body.

So against all trends of that time, he invented the famous Delphos gown. If you think that at the same time all artists of that time were influenced by the arrival of Art Nouveau, you can see easily this influence on the Delphos dress. Inspired by natural shapes that underline the feminine curves of a woman’s body… this is totally Art Nouveau.

Delphos_dress

 

What was the great idea behind? While Poiret was destructuring the women’s allure, Mariano Fortuny was reshaping it thanks to the Delphos dress. A shift dress made of finely pleated silk weighed down by glass beads that held its shape and flowed on the body. The pleating that he used was all done by hand and no one has been able to recreate pleating that is as fine as his or has held its shape like his dresses have for many years.

The Delphos dress became a reference in the fashion industry and today many designers are still getting their inspiration from this dress.

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Discover this month, Les Indiscrets de Joséphine. Born from the passion of a talented artist, she gives a second life to outdated furniture by revamping its look. Style remains but definitely the artist imagination gives a new breath to chairs, sofas and other interior objects. Each piece is unique.

What motivates this interior designer is her passion for creative work and how to give a second life to furniture that time passed by and let some strong traces. After more than 10 years spent in the pharmaceutical industry, Ms Humault committed to retraining. Having trained in Paris and became an Upholsterer. And just after that, she created Les Indiscrets de Joséphine (The indiscretions of Joséphine).

For the story, a “Indiscret” is a 3 seater sofa which dates from the Napoleon III period. There is also a “Confident” which is a 2 seater S-shaped When a third person comes and sits between the 2 S, this gives Indiscreet!

What makes Les Indiscrets de Joséphine interesting? Well we can see that not only each piece of furniture is an unique creation but the only limits are the boundaries of the artist imagination… endless.

Here are some of the pieces that at LuxuryActivist we loved all handmade by Les Indiscrets de Joséphine. Pictures by Les Indiscrets de Josephine.

Tabouret de Piano (Piano seat) – Empire style

We realized that there are a trend for Napoleon III furniture for the past 5 years now and it is obvious that for Furniture lovers, that period of history was amazingly creative.

From the middle of the 19th century up to the 20’s where Art Nouveau took the place, The Napoleon III style also called Second Empire, brought a tremendous freedom of creation. In deed, this specific style blended influences from Gothic, Ancient-Greek towards Italian renaissance. Eclecticism was the word. With the creation of a strong Bourgeoisie, needs of Furniture increased drastically and required a huge amount of creativity to fulfill the requests of all the Bourgeoise houses. One of the biggest small revolutions in furniture brought by the Napoleon III style is represented in the Fauteuil Crapaud, Frog-seat in french. In deed all the wood was recovered by fabric which was not something possible before as the wood work was always considered important. One important person in the creation of this so specific style is the Emperor’s wife, Empress Eugenie de Montijo. While the Church would ask for a certain form of modesty and moral behavior, The Empress influneced by her taste, personality and vision all the artists at that time.

2013 starts with a great Make-up renewal for Sisley. Different new products coming this 1st semester 2013. After the Botanical D-Tox that we already talked about in another article, here are 2 major products to complete the Sisley make-up offer.

MASCARA SO INTENSE, Thickening and fortifying

2 of biggest concerns for women about their lashes are always the thickness and the length. Depending on the days or on what a woman will do, she can diversify her make up. From almost nothing to highly sophistication, make-up can go with the outfit and the humor. But if there is always something a woman will never forget to do is to use a mascara. It is part of a woman daily rituals. So by applying on your body every day a product, you need to be sure it is the right one. That is why Sisley is launching their new Mascara collection So Intense. With its groundbreaking formula and unique skincare benefits, it improves the length and the thickness of bare lashes in only 4 weeks. The result? A star-quality lashes…

So_Intense_by Sisley

To accomplish this amazing result without any mechanical help, Sisley developed an unique formula based on the perfect blend between skincare and Make-up. Followed by strict scientific tests, it is the proof by the experience that will reassure you about this new Mascara.

So_Intense_Sisley_Mascara

 

So_Intense_brosse_Sisley

The formula consists in 2 pillars.

#1 For the first time, Sisley used a Vitamin Peptide, a combination of a tripeptide and Vitamin H in order to boost the strengthening and the lengthening. In addition, Castor oil and Pro-Vitamin B5 will beautify the lashes.
#2 Volume and colour are key. With Sheathing polymers, including Acacia gum, Carnauba wax and Silica microbeads, your lashes are highlighted with a more intense colour and stay protected with a light film from root to tip.

Last but not least, the new Mascara formula get the sublimation required thanks to a new high-tech patented comb brush.
So-Intense_Sisley_Brush

The new brush was designed nano-millimiter by nano-millimiter to capture each lash at its base and stretching them to infinity and curling them to perfection. Many women complain about the fact their lashes are short. Here with the new brush they will be able to make the best out of their lashes. The layout of the comb pins ensures a ultra-volumising effect.

3 shades will be available for the launch:

  • Deep black
  • Deep Brown
  • Deep Blue

So Intense Mascara by Sisley

 

The new mascara will be available by February 2013 in all Sisley Point of sales at the price of 57CHF / 60$ / 38 £.

 

PHYTO CERNES ECLAT, Eye Concealer with botanical extracts.

In this philosophy of blending skincare expertise and Make-up skills, Sisley is also launching a new product called Phyto Cernes Eclat. A new Skincare treatment specially designed for the eye contour area.

PHYTO_CERNES_ECLAT_VISAGE

Nothing worse than looking like 10 year more than our current age and many times dark circles and puffiness are responsible for this look. With the new Eye Concealer by Sisley you can use its formula every day and carry it with you everywhere for a permanent and beautiful eye contour.

PHYTO_CERNES_ECLAT_1

 

What can we say about this new formula? Well, it is a All-in-one approach. You can combat circulatory and lymphatic deficiency, tissue slackening, fatty deposits and beautify your look. How it this possible? Thanks to an amazing formula, with no essential oils, just with natural extracts.

Against Dark circles, 3 plant extracts: Red Vine, Arnica and Ginko Biloba. These all 3 extracts are organic and represent a blood micro-circulation natural booster.

Against puffiness, also 3 extracts: Caffeine, Soya peptide extract and Horsetail extract. These 3 ingredients fight the formation of  fatty deposits, boost the synthesis of Collagen and tonify tissues.

Finally Carrot extract, natural Alpha Bisabolol (from Candeia) and vegetable Glycerine produces a soft and comfort effect.

In terms of shades, Pinky beige, Peach and Apricot will be the perfect colour palette to match your skin all year long. In addition, Nylon microspheres brings a soft optical focus which immediately reduces the appearance of blemishes and white hallows around the eyes. Good point!

PHYTO_CERNES_ECLAT_MATIERES

Last but not least, and this is a must that only Sisley would dare. It is a high-tech metal tip to massage and drain the eye contour. Made in pure Zamac (a metal alliage of Zinc, Aluminum, Magnesium and Copper)  this is the ultimate luxury touch, in complement to the usage of the small brush included in the packaging.

PHYTO_CERNES_ECLAT_4

It will be available by the end of the first quarter 2013 at the Recommended retail price of 91 CHF / 97$ / 61£.

Another last minute news, remember the Palette Orchidée? It was supposed to be a limited edition and facing the success of such a great product, now it integrates the catalog, as well as new shades of Lipsticks. 2013 seems to be a strong Make up year for Sisley. And apparently they did not finish to surprise us…

Botanical D-Tox by Sisley, give your skin a good rest.

LuxuryActivist

Reading Time: 5 minutes

Sisley is launching next february a new “rescue” skincare product called Botanical D-Tox – Detoxifying night treatment.

Botanical_Dtox Sisley

Give your skin a break thanks to this new treatment by Sisley Cosmetics. The Botanical D-Tox by Sisley is a “Beautiful skin” cure program which all women need when suffering from Exhaustion.

The interest if this product is that Sisley Research identified 3 major steps in the skin’s detoxication chain. This understanding helped Sisley Labs to create the perfect treatment just by boosting the natural process.

THE FORMULA

Step 1: Cells are detoxified deep down and deteriorated proteins are washed away.
Our Skin produces a substance called Proteasome. This substance is responsible for the cleaning of deteriorated proteins. Sisley is adding a new active ingredient to its cosmetic palette. It is the Rice peptide extract. This new ingredient contains high-tech plant-based peptides that will stimulate the activity of proteasome.

Step 2: The Skin has a natural defense system against Free Radicals.
Everyday our skin is oxidized due to our lifestyle but also environmental conditions. The natural defense system limits the damages thanks to proteins, membrane lipids or even cellular DNA. However we also know that a extraordinary period of stress and overwork amplifies this process and the skin cannot recover by itself. That is why Sisley added Einkorn Wheat extract to the Botanical D-Tox Formula. It strengthens the detoxifying process by mimicking the cells natural antioxidant activity.

Step 3: The elimination of toxins
Our skin eliminates toxins thanks to the microcirculation. And when there is too much of toxins due to an intense stress, the natural elimination process does not match the needs, so toxins accumulate and your skin looks awful. So thanks to the addition of Ginko Biloba into the Botanical D-Tox formula, the skin’s microcirculation is stimulated and the evacuation of toxins improved. Your skin can then recover its freshness and radiance.

And as usual with Sisley, reading the ingredients list is just a botanical marvelous journey. In addition to the previous 3 main actives, the formula of Botanical D-Tox was enriched with:
• Extract of Rosemary leaves: particularly stimulating in periods of fatigue.
• Essential oils of Sage and Rosemary: toning and purifying.
• Extract of Hops: revitalising.
• Vegetable Glycerine to moisturise.
• Extract of Matricaria blossom to soothe and soften.
• Essential oils of Lavender and Marjoram to calm and balance.
• Shea butter to nourish and regenerate.
• Sunflower oil to nourish, soften and revitalise.

So according to Ms Sonja Glavas, Marketing and PR Manager at Sisley Switzerland, you can replace your regular night treatment by the new Botanical D-Tox. You use it as a “30 days treatment” and then you can get back to your regular care.

In addition to the Botanical D-Tox, you could strenghts up the effect by adding the current Sisleÿa Elixir under your daily cream. But normally it should not be necessary.
To the question : “Why a night treatment and not a day protection?”, Ms Glavas answered that the night is the best moment to interact with one’s skin. During the night, our skin put in place different processes, from healing to regeneration up to detoxication. The new Botanical D-Tox acts as a natural booster, so that is why its efficiency is at its best during the night.

Botanical_Dtox_mood_visual

THE TEXTURE

Botanical D-Tox is a perfect rescue cure. In just a few days your skin looks more beautiful and purified. It is a real skin booster that you can use in order to recharge your skin batteries. Considered as a Global treatment, it is adapted to all skins, all ages and you can use it at any season. Very fluid, the application of this formula is easy, non-oily and perfect if you are traveling.
The texture is quite surprising. You get a true freshness effect not only when you apply the product but also for a while after application. It penetrates almost instantaneously in the skin. Right away, you can feel your skin softener and unified. Really impressive.
Sisley advices to use the new Botanical D-Tox as a 4 weeks night cure. You can use it every time after a long stressful period.

THE PACKAGING
Aligned with the Sisley graphic chart, we can nevertheless highlight this crispy fresh green color of the cap. It contrasts with the White color of the packaging.
It is available on a 30ML pump-dispenser bottle, so practical, modern and clean.

Botanical_Dtox_pump

It will be available next month in all official Sisley points of sales. The recommended retail price is 209 CHF / 170 € / 226 $.
