ALL ACCESS SUCH PRESENCE Gift yourself some attitude. BY ROBERT HAYNES-PETERSON BEST FOOT FORWARD Men's footwear has been boasting increasing levels of flair lately, a trend of which we wholly approve. The latest Bordeaux-toned Nicholas Kirkwood Zigzag Lace-Ups ($1,020) are available at the new 1,400-square-foot Kirkwood boutique, opened last May, only the designer's second store in the country. These oxfords feature a leather/printed-suede upper, dashing navy and yellow stripes, and a stacked leather sole; the shoe works equally well as the only splash of color in a suit or as a way to spice up basic jeans. Nicholas Kirkwood, 702-770-3543 SUPER CHARGED You can pick up chargers and stands at your local drugstore. But where's the fun in that? The Launchport iPad Inductive Charging System for Strutlife is a sleek charger/stand/case system ($1,500) that evokes classic Rolls-Royce hood ornaments and interiors. The spherical, wireless charging pedestal features handcrafted and polished stainless steel (with optional kiln-fired, powder-coated finishes in black and white). Neodymium magnets in the customized iPad cases connect your tablet effortlessly to the base. The cases come in five standard styles, including burled walnut and black carbon fiber, and seven special-order finishes. Wynn LVNV, 702-770-3470 If you're going to indulge, do it with class. Roger Dubuis and Carlos Dias design watches that take timepieces to a new level of elegance and masculinity. The Roger Dubuis Double Flying Tourbillon Skeleton is being offered for the first time in a full-black titanium case ($252,000). The award-winning RD01SQ "skeleton" double flying tourbillon movement isn't just fantastic to look at—the design approach means the movement can be presented in a lighter, bolder fashion. From the only manufacturer to be Poinçon de Genève– certified from the Watchmaking School of Geneva, the watch features 319 parts, a 45mm case, and is water-resistant to 50 meters. Wynn & Company Watches, 702-770-3520 THE GREAT GLAD-SBY SPICE OF LIFE We may not always admit it, but guys like a little variety, too. Luckily, London-based Penhaligon's offers a wealth of options for the well-scented male. The Gentlemen's Fragrance Collection ($45), packaged for the holidays in a keepsake tin (inspired by Victorian music boxes), includes five 5-ml bottles of the brand's most popular scents: Blenheim Bouquet (woods and spices), Quercus (earth notes, patchouli), Opus 1870 (a wintry blend of citrus, wood, and pepper notes), Endymion (citrus, spices, leather), and Sartorial (oakmoss, lavender, leather), inspired by Savile Row tailors. Apothecary at Wynn, 702-770-3537 46 TIME FLIES Sarah Burton's delightfully outrageous collection for Alexander McQueen Spring/ Summer 2014 features Edwardian themes with just the right amount of authentic wear and tear. This heavily brocaded suit, one of many in the collection, treads the boundary between high style and casual fun. Blackand-white engineered lace-jacquard doublebreasted jacket with gold buttons ($4,895); black-and-white engineered lacejacquard trousers ($2,195); and black-andwhite cotton lace print shirt ($830).
