There is nothing better than a hot cup of coffee to soothe your nerves and improve your mood, and especially if you have a luxurious coffee machine, you would definitely want to drink more of that wonderful cup of coffee. Philips has launched an opulent coffee machine called the Senseo Limited Edition which has been dsigned Marcel Wanders.
The Senseo Limited Edition almost looks bejewelled and the idea of having such a contemporary design in the kitchen is a very appealing idea. The Senseo Limited Edition comes in red and black and only 50,000 copies would be made available in France. Each of these coffee makers cost 120 Euros, and I must say that since it is a luxury product, it certainly is worth that much.

The biosphere includes various plants stacked atop of a container of algae which in turn sits atop a fish tank. The lowest container collects the organic waste.

Donned in white, the gleaming crystals cover the body and face of USB drive. Hey, did I tell you the cute girly bot even has crimson lips!
Priced at $238, the 2GB capacity Happy Laura is anticipated to hit the European market. Well, the glitzy casing may seem too much if you compare it with standard USB drives but Philips’ Active Crystal collection would turn out to be a blessing for rich robot loving gals.

And here you have another accessible opportunity to flaunt your over flowing wealth. This can be possible if inking a neat deal with Philips latest offering that comes layered with pesky Swarovski crystals. Called Breeze Bluetooth Headset, it is being hyped as a product “designed by women, for women”. Is it really? In the reason they factor in to take their argument forwards is its shiny and delicate appeal. Even if it is then what argument do they have to prove that women are impressed by such stuff? At least ShinyDiva Lucy Hedges points it to be totally irrelevant or rather mysterious. Coming to the specks of the headset, Breeze sports a variety of buttons to monitor the headphone, its volume, pairing button and a USB port for charging.
Available in two shades i.e. black and white, if you think carrying this ornamented headset is a bit too much, then this can behave as your pendant as well. For now, only this bit of information is available and nothing is said in regards to its pricing….so cool down and relax till it hits the market.
