1. Would you shell out $2,700 for this vintage Beemer?
“Over all this looks to be one amazingly clean example of the earliest 3, and one that might make a new owner a very happy polo wearing club-goer. That is, if its $2,700 price tag doesn’t disenchant.
What do you think, is this old 320i worth that kind of cash even if by today’s standards it’s not really the “Ultimate Driving Machine? Or, is that price just not good enough?”

2. Becks’ next move is a foray into the grooming industry
“The brand is inspired by British barber shops as well as Beckham’s own favourite products, starting out with 21 products across skincare, haircare, bodycare and grooming, ranging from the Bold Statement Tattoo Body Moisturizer to the Softer Touch Beard Oil. Quinoa and spirulina are at the heart of the formulas, chosen specifically by Beckham for their reputation as health-boosting ingredients.
House 99 will launch exclusively at Harvey Nichols in the UK on February 1 2018, rolling out to other British retailers and 19 countries worldwide from March 1.”

3. Catch the best street-style you may have missed from London Fashion Week Men’s
“While London Fashion Week Men’s is technically about what’s taking place on the catwalk, it’s always fun to see what people outside them are wearing, too. Fortunately, MR PORTER also courageously took up the mantle, and did our level best to pick out the best looks from London’s streets.”
4. There’s a reason the architect of this stunning 1967 modernist house inspired Bond villain Goldfinger
“If the name Goldfinger rings a bell, it is probably due to the fact that the temperamental “bad boy” architect, best known for his Brutalist concrete high-rises, also inspired the James Bond villain of the same name.
“The large budget for the project enabled Goldfinger to express himself in high-end and luxury finishes.”
