THE $500,000 BULLETPROOF BENTLEY


Sure, you could get yourself an off-the-rack Bentley Continental Flying Spur, but what happens when the s--t goes down? Better perhaps to be prepared with an armored version that can stop an AK-47 dead in its tracks. For about $500,000 you can pick one up in Germany via global online luxury marketplace JamesList. Featuring military-grade B6-level protection, the upgrade makes this super-luxe sedan war zone-ready. With no virtually alteration to the outside appearance and adjustments to handle the extra weight without sacrificing the 552-hp engine's performance, the changes are subtle but effective: ballistic steel in the doors, pillars, overlaps and sides of the vehicle, bulletproof glass, run flat tires, an explosion-proof gas tank, kevlar flooring, and more. Other security options include a self-contained oxygen supply system in case of a poison gas attack and exploding hinge bolts that blast open the doors should a speedy exit become imperative.

NIke Sports Wear Big Nike


Recently, Nike has applied some of the more memorable cartoons and movies on the Big Nike model such as the “Flintstone” Pack and the “Wolverine”, respectively. Yet, Nike seems to be catering to the women on this newly-designed Big Nike model.

This particular sneaker features a predominately plum-colored leather upper with multiple pink details in the form of the shoelaces, inner lining and outsole. However, one of the more interesting features on this shoe is the floral design that smothers the toe area, heel panel and laceholder area.

No word yet on when this Nike Sportswear Big Nike will release. What are your thoughts on this colorful eye-catcher

HAWAII, THE LAND OF MILLIONAIRES


If you want to hang with the wealthy you might want to head to Hawaii. Phoenix Marketing International has announced the results of their latest study which shows that Hawaii remains the state with the largest percentage of millionaires per the overall population. In the Aloha State as in most everywhere else, the amount of millionaires has diminished over the past year. They led the list last year with 7.26 percent of the population and continue to dominate in 2009 with 6.4 percent of Hawaii's households being worth $1 million or more in investable or liquid assets, (excluding sponsored retirement plans and real estate).

The other states in the top five are Maryland (6.3 percent), New Jersey (6.2 percent), and Connecticut (6.2 percent), an order of ranking unchanged since 2008 with Virginia sneaking into the top five at 5.5 percent, displacing Massachusetts which is now in sixth place. Since this list ranks the percentage per population the smaller states have a better shot at making it to the top.

Where can you find the lowest percentage of millionaires? That would be Mississippi which has owned the bottom spot for the past four years and hits a new low this year with 3.06 percentage of the population being millionaires. The state with the most millionaire households is California with 662,735 or 5.28 percent of the population.

The Salvatore Ferragamo Gancio Intrecc Vitello Shoulder Bag

The Salvatore Ferragamo Gancio Intrecc Vitello Shoulder Bag is truly unusual and very chic.
This bag comes in plum (shown), gold, or black metallic leather and is the perfect day bag, with that comfortable square-cut shoulder and enough space for all your accessories -- even the makeup bag.

We love the elegant, braided rope-like details and the creative gathered pleat at the front. The sides feature drawstrings to help keep this open-top bag safely and securely shut. This bag has no hardware at all, so you can wear it with gold or silver, and any pattern, as it is completely and deliberately monochromatic.

The Salvatore Ferragamo Gancio Intrecc Vitello Shoulder Bag is available from Neiman Marcus for $1,290.00.
