Smart Hacks For Living Better After 60 Face the sun. Everyday Growing older is inevitable. Looking and feeling old? That's increasingly optional. Today's healthiest men and women over 60 aren't chasing youth. They're investing in longevity (the science of extending lifespan) but the real goal should be healthspan: the number of years you remain active, energetic, mentally sharp, and independent. The answer lies with consistent habits backed by solid research. Here are some of

Cool Summers In Aspen Let's settle something right now. Aspen is not cool because of the skiing. The skiing is excellent, of course. Four mountains, legendary powder, spectacular terrain. Wonderful. Congratulations, you have arrived. Strap on a pair and head for the back bowls. But there are plenty of places with great skiing. Utah has snow. Montana has snow. Vail has snow, hell, even Vermont (eweee) has snow. What those places don't have is a billionaire in Brunello Cucinell

Friday nights in Palm Beach require planning the right look Friday Night Lights There are Friday nights, and then there are Friday nights in Palm Beach. The difference, of course, is that in Palm Beach the room is watching, even if everyone pretends they are not. That means showing up in gym clothes and a quarter zip should be punishable by deportation. Start with the foundation: a pair of crisp white jeans. Why white? Because it's Palm Beach. White jeans signal confidence, o

A cigar born from adversity Amar by AJ Fernandez When a devastating fire tore through AJ Fernandez’s flagship factory in Estelí, Nicaragua, in 2025, millions of cigars were lost and a significant portion of the operation was damaged. Rather than simply rebuild, Abdel “AJ” Fernandez chose to create something meaningful from the experience. The result is Amar, one of the most anticipated cigar releases of 2026. It’s a blend that serves as both a thank-you note to the cigar comm

Eight Luxury Destinations Worth the Airfare There comes a point every summer when the fortunate begin their annual migration. The private terminals get busier. Linen gets whiter, Rosé consumption reaches medically questionable levels, and a familiar parade of entrepreneurs, financiers, celebrities, polo players, and well-heeled escape artists disperses across the globe in search of sunshine, scenery, and a table that was booked six months ago. From the cliffs of Italy to the

Our Favorite Lights Cartier Panthère de Cartier Lighter The Panthère is Cartier’s version of black-tie. Elegant, architectural, and impossibly refined, it looks as if it belongs in the pocket of someone who owns both a château and a vintage Ferrari. The clean lines and lacquer finish make it jewelry disguised as a cigar accessory. Does it light a cigar? Absolutely. But its real job is making everyone at the table ask, “What is that?” before you even strike the flame. S.T. Du

High Maintenance or Necessary? Plan Your Trip Traveling to Aspen for the summer is an odd sport. You’re up at 4AM and it’s a Florida 80° out before the sun shines and by noon, you’re drinking coffee in an airport lounge wearing cashmere. Nine hours later, you’re on your balcony at 8,000+ feet wondering why your lips resemble drywall and you have a headache. This pile of gear is less “packing” and more “survival kit for someone with standards.” Lets dig in. Start with the Zeg

Perpetually, Yours (Rolex 1960) For years, the luxury watch industry chased extremes. Watches became larger, then smaller. Cases turned carbon fiber, ceramic, forged titanium, meteorite. Brands built pieces capable of surviving deep-sea trenches, race circuits and environments no private equity executive in loafers will ever experience outside an airport lounge. And now? The newest fascination may be something your great-grandfather carried while yelling at train schedules: T

It's the 'little things' that make a mans bar, a BAR Exceptionally Stocked There was a time when a man’s barware consisted of three things: a cloudy rocks glass from college, a half-broken corkscrew, and whatever whiskey happened to be on sale. Thankfully, those days are dying a deserved death. Because in 2026, the modern luxury bar cart has evolved into something far more important: a declaration of taste. We are now living in the era of “Raising the Bar(ware).” And yes, the

1 OF 1? Rolex doesn’t do eccentric because at Rolex, it’s all about control. It operates on three standards: discipline, ruthlessness and (Swiss) industrial perfection. Which is exactly why the Zenith-era Daytona Ref. 16516 in platinum with a lapis lazuli dial feels like a whispered secret and something that wasn’t supposed to escape Geneva. This watch breaks Rolex’s own rules. In the late ‘90s, while the world knew Daytona’s in steel, two-tone, and gold, a handful of plati

Usable Luxury There was a time when “Stuff of the Week” meant a new tie, maybe a decent pen, and some self-improvement. Now it’s a curated survival kit for modern life: looking good, moving fast, blocking out nonsense, and occasionally lighting something expensive on fire. Progress, I suppose. Hoka Skyward Laceless Let’s begin at ground level, where dignity often ends and comfort begins. The HOKA Skyward Laceless Running Shoes are what happens when performance footwear finall

Scarcity is their doctrine The SP3 At its simplest, Ferrari’s business appears almost laughably straightforward: build exceptional cars and deliberately limit supply. But as Ben Gilbert and David Rosenthal of the Wall Street Journal report, that simplicity is deceptive. Ferrari is not merely a luxury brand in the vein of Hermès or Rolex. It is something far more potent: a hybrid of elite craftsmanship and global sports fandom. There remains a striking imbalance that defines

The Time Is Now Universal Gèneve There are watch comebacks… and then there is the resurrection of Universal Genève , a brand that didn’t just quietly return to the party, but kicked the door in wearing tailored velvet, poured itself a drink, and reminded everyone why it used to own the room. For decades, Universal Genève was the ultimate insider’s flex. Not the obvious choice like Rolex, not the safe intellectual pick like Patek, but something far more seductive: a connoisseu

Designer Luxury For The Soul Palazzo Portrait Milano If Milan had a backstage, Portrait Milano would be it, except this backstage comes with Carrara marble, espresso on arrival, and the kind of courtyard that makes even seasoned fashion editors stop mid-strut. Let’s start with the address: Corso Venezia 11, planted firmly in Milan’s golden triangle of excess (the Quadrilatero della Moda.) You’re a short, dangerously tempting stroll from Via Montenapoleone, where restraint go

Will the Big Block make its return? When the doors open in Geneva next month for Watches and Wonders, one brand will arrive with more than a new watch or two to show off. Tudor is celebrating its 100th anniversary , marking a century since the name “Tudor” was registered in Geneva in 1926 by Rolex founder Hans Wilsdorf. His idea was simple: deliver Rolex-level durability and design, but at a more accessible price. One hundred years later, Tudor has become a brand that often

Why Suitsupply Custom Suits Are the Best Value in Menswear Tools of the Trade In the strange economics of modern menswear, a man can spend $5,000 on a designer suit that fits like a borrowed tuxedo or $1,000 on a suit that makes him look like he owns the building. The difference often comes down to one brand: Suitsupply. For the last decade, Suitsupply has quietly become the best value in custom suiting. Take it from one who knows. They aren’t the cheapest and not the most t

900 Degrees in 90 Seconds There are many signs that one has reached a certain stage of adulthood. You start caring about lawn irrigation. You know the difference between a good olive oil and one that tastes suspiciously like motor lubricant, and eventually you become obsessed with a pizza oven. Not just any pizza oven, mind you. We’re talking about the kind of oven that arrives on a pallet and weighs roughly the same as a small Fiat. An oven that requires a brief consultation

Creative Directors Take The Heat In 2026 Hot or Not Luxury fashion has officially entered its “try everything, fire everyone” era. Creative Directors are being hired, hyped, memed, blamed, and let go before their business cards even yellow. What used to be a creative marathon has become a three-season sprint down the gang plank. Growth has stalled . Aspirational shoppers, once known as the handbag foot soldiers, have been kneecapped by inflation, rent, and the realization

If Kentucky is the Ivy League of bourbon, Wyoming Whiskey is the scrappy kid who shows up in boots, skips the dress code, and aces the final. Founded in 2009 in Kirby, Wyoming , the brand had no business succeeding. Which, of course, is exactly why it did. The idea came from ranchers Brad and Kate Mead , along with attorney David DeFazio , who looked out at Wyoming’s vast, whiskey-free landscape and thought, Why not here? After all, the state had pristine limestone-filtered

Moo Somewhere along the way, the hamburger (once a $5 paper-wrapped sog of meat and bun) decided it deserved a PR agent, a sommelier, and a line around the corner. Today, burgers are no longer food you ate with one hand while driving a stick, they are statements , even events and have names! So what is it about burgers that has the global restaurant market buzzing, foaming, and charging $38 for ground meat on a buttery bun? Let’s dig in and preferably with someone else’s
