Verve brings you some of the trendiest buys in the market

EYE GLAM
Marcolin’s new limited edition of Ferrari Eyewear commemorates forty years of the mythical Ferrari Daytona and is dedicated to the most desirable sport car in the world. Featuring an exquisite design combination reflecting the same retro look so in fashion at the time when the legendary automobile was born, the 40 pairs will be contained in an elegant brown leather case and placed in an exclusive lacquered wood box, enriched with the Ferrari 365 GTB4 logo. Turn heads.
TIME OUT
The new timepiece from La D de Dior comes with a black varnished dial studded with diamonds and an elegant black stain strap and unfolding clasp. This limited edition watch is water-resistant for upto 30 metres and is available exclusively at the Dior boutique. Go on, flaunt that wrist.
TABLE ART
Inspired by India, the new collection of tableware from Villeroy & Boch features typical motifs such as paisleys, borrowed from elegant cashmere scarves of the English colonial era, and a fine, delicate contour, reminiscent of mehndi and other geometrical and ornamental designs that reflect the opulence, luxury and traditions of this diverse country. Easy elegance.
PERFECT PUCKER
For perfectly defined, sensual lips that make an impact wherever you go, the Joli Rouge lipsticks from Clarins ensures you look your best no matter what. This dreamy red lipstick comes with intense moisturising ingredients that nourish and protect while micro-pearls provide intense shine. Make an impact.
RETAIL THERAPY
Get ready for a marathon shopping spree with the opening of the Dubai Mall, the flagship property of Emaar Malls Group on the 30th of this month. The opening coincides with an extended retail season in the region marked by the UAE National Day, Eid Al Adha, New Year and the Dubai Shopping Festival. Giving visitors several retail and leisure options, the Dubai Aquarium and Discovery Centre, the Olympic-sized Dubai Ice Rink, the world’s largest indoor Gold Souk and hundreds of retailers will open simultaneously. Pure indulgence.
FRESH FRAGRANCE
Invigorating and uplifting, Davidoff Cool Water evokes notes of citrus, black currant, pineapple and honeydew melon. This is followed by aquatic florals like lotus blossoms, water lilly, may-rose and jasmine while exotic notes of amber, vetiver and sandalwood that cimjure up a tropical rainforest complete the scent. Heady delight.
STONED IN STYLE
The new N-14 Collection from TBZ Nirmal Zaveri is a tribute to the contemporary woman. Incorporating flawless precious and semi precious stones such as emeralds, rubies, citrine, turquoise, garnets, onyx and alexandrite set in the jewellery, the line comprises some stunning pieces that can suit any occasion. Whether you want a custom designed or ready-to-wear set, the range of diamond and gold jewellery does not disappoint. Very precious.
PLAY TIME
Celebrating the spirit of stylish travel, Louis Vuitton last year presented a complete collection of six games - chess, draughts, backgammon, cards, dice and dominoes - in hard-frame cases with which travellers could elegantly while away the hours. This year, they have included three more made-to-order games to the list - poker, mah jong and croquet. What’s more they can be customised on request with their owners’ initials and are available by special order in Louis Vuitton stores. Stylish and fun.
