You might be familiar with the Mulholland Drive in Hollywood, but there is also something more exclusive than the famous road itself. The Mulholland name is almost synonymous with high quality leather goods, and luxurious leather products. This time around, they have teamed up with Land Rover and have both unveiled the Land Rover GEAR catalogue which includes a bike that moves through the snow without wheels, a Mulholland luggage bag and a sterling silver bracelet.

They have been launched just in time for the holiday season and the road bike is amazingly cool. It moves on a flat base and uses gravity to propel itself. Thanks to a rubber saddle, there is no pressure on knees, hips or ankles. Christened the Snowbike, it costs $1,699 and it is a great way to travel thorough snow and enjoy the beauty of snow.

The Mulholland Safari Bag costs $875 and is thoroughly functional and stylish. The Land Rover ID bracelet is made of solid, brushed sterling silver. It comes with the Land Rover ID engraved on it and costs $1,025. The Land Rover lifestyle range also includes other cool products like Land Rover Sonim Phone-Sturdy, waterproof phone, plush toys, Radio controlled Land Rover LR2, gift baskets and more.

If you ever hated someone a lot and wanted a gift that looked real expensive, here is the cool looking Iron Samurai Watch from Chinavasion. It costs just $15, and is of very bad quality. It is not even waterproof and that tells you a lot about the materials that were used to manufacture the watch.

It is apparently made from Samurai sword carbonized steel folded 1000x over. It looks so expensive that people might think you are giving away an awesome LED enabled rocking bracelet that is also a watch. The truth is, it is all that but only of severely bad quality. If you hate someone, or dislike the person enough to not give much, you could give this watch.

Initially it would look great but when realization dawns upon the person, he or she would realize that the gift was not such an awesome one after all! Christmas gifts can be annoyingly irritating and thus, you should go ahead and plan well in advance to make sure you buy the right gift. If you do not plan, you could always give all the krap you ever wanted, to the person you do not like or to the person you hate.

Boucheron is a jewelry brand covered on this webpage on more occasions than one. And there is a reason why. We like the delicacy that precious fashion accessories are treated with to make your look complete. This time it is a lovely bracelet that caught our eye. Plus with a name like Delilah, you can very well expect something that isn’t less than spectacular.

Made by braiding yellow gold in chain like patterns, this one is both trendy and very original. Then it also has a barrette and fringe that are set stunningly with  some 70 sparkling diamonds.

The specifications are that it is 25 cm long has is 35cm wide. The cost is big at $20,300, (and for that reason it might just be affordable for the bunch of Paris Hiltons and gang).
