The year's biggest luxury buys
Gigi, the dog of Renato Agnello, a white-truffle hunter, holds a truffle in his mouth after finding it in the woods of Barbaresco near Alba in the Italian northern region of Piemonte. Billionaire Stanley Ho spent US$330,000 on white truffles and then didn't eat them.

What's more extravagant than spending US$330,000 on two white truffles, the pricey fungi popular with foodies around the world? Spending US$330,000 on the mushrooms and then not even eating them. Billionaire Stanley Ho, the casino king of Macau, did just that at a London auction last month. According to a truffle expert, the large, aged Italian specimens Ho bought — "grand champions," in industry parlance — were not the sort you'd want to sprinkle on your risotto. "They're mostly or entirely unusable for culinary concerns," says Britt Bunyard, publisher of Fungi magazine. "They're over-mature, split open, and often have bad or decomposed parts. The truffle connoisseur would pass them over for younger, fresher ones."

Scarlett splits
Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds split
Two years after their wedding, Scarlett Johanson and Ryan Reynolds have called and end to their marriage. Being two of Hollywood's most promising actors appears to have taken its toll on the couple.
They looked to be one of Hollywood's best matched couples, but after weeks of rumors Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds have confirmed inPeople magazine that they intend to separate just two years after they wed.
"After long and careful consideration on both parts, we have decided to end our marriage," the actors confirmed via a joint statement. "We entered our relationship with love and it is with love and kindness we leave it. While privacy isn't expected, it's certainly appreciated," they add.
A source has revealed to the magazine that the couple have been estranged for the last six months when the actress began looking for a new apartment in New York. She is currently holidaying in Jamaica with a group of friends.
Meanwhile, Us Magazine has signalled that the reason for the couple's split was owing to the amount of time they were forced to spend apart due to their professional commitments: "The biggest problem in their relationship was the distance," explained a source close to the couple, who also confirmed that Johansson "has been happy" over the past few months.
26-year-old Johansson and 32-year-old Reynolds announced their engagement in May 2008 after they had been dating for a year. They married four months later in a small ceremony held in Canada, Buriedstar Reynolds country of origin. The couple's split marks the end of one of Hollywood's most attractive couples of recent times.

Best Dressed: Blake Lively And Kim Kardashian In Versace And Versus - Fashion Forum - StyleBistro
Best Dressed: Blake Lively And Kim Kardashian In Versace And Versus - Fashion Forum - StyleBistro
Blake Lively is wearing an amazing Versace Spring 2011 nude dress (so unfortunately matched by horrible make-up and hair) and Kim Kardashian is wearing a more sassy, albeit a size too small, Versus Fall 2010 black velvet mini-dress.
Who would have thought a Versus dress would be picked for Best Dressed. Now that Christopher Kane designs the Versus collections - I think it will be happening more often.

In March 1905, Georges Vuitton dared escape artist Harry Houdini to pit his skill against a handmade trunk bearing the Vuitton family name.
“Sir, I take the liberty of challenging you,” he wrote in a newspaper ad, “to get out of a BOX MADE BY ME, NAILED SHUT after you get in by MY STAFF, and tied with ropes.” Houdini doesn’t seem to have taken up the offer, aware, no doubt, that the LV brand stood for goods even tougher than he.
“Louis Vuitton: 100 Legendary Trunks” (Abrams) is as luxe and quirky as the luggage produced by the house since 1854, when Louis Vuitton opened his shop on the rue Scribe in Paris. Here are the trunk custom made to transport diva Lily Pons’s 36 pairs of shoes and a black trunk emblazoned with a life-size penguin ordered by the avant-garde director Robert Wilson.
There’s even a trunk made expressly to carry a Sony PlayStation 3 and all its accoutrements.
Bespoke!
And here is Michael Caine, Alfie himself, in a sleek black double-breasted suit tailored for him by Douglas Hayward.
The photo is a standout in “Bespoke: The Men’s Style of Savile Row” (Rizzoli). In a changing fashion world where “custom” fittings are done by computer, it’s practically nostalgic to revisit the likes of Gieves & Hawkes and a time when hunting outfits included a top hat and silk cravat. Jude Law knows (he’s here, in Kilgour), as does David Beckham (in Timothy Everest).
