What if one day I woke up and there was no Chanel, no Dior, no Paris Fashion Week and no Hotel Costes?

This month, the mesmerizing pieces of Chanel's Sous le Signe du Lion High Jewelry collection will be traveling to Dubai where they will be showcased at the CHANEL Watches and Jewelry boutique at the Dubai Mall. Artfully rendered and depicting a magnificent subject matter, the collection expresses the breadth and creativity CHANEL High Jewelry.

Chanel, the ever-evolving luxury brand's most elaborate, and ultra-expensive parade of bling has arrived in the U.S. from its home in Paris just in time to bejewel Dakota Johnson at the Golden Globes. But now is resting comfortably in their New York boutique on Madison Avenue. High jewelry connotes the most lavish of jewels, and debuted during July's Haute Couture at the house's Place Vendome Parisian address.

Let's be frank. No one needs anything but well-crafted pieces made of durable, refined materials are the hallmark of conscious consumerism and is the antidote to cheap throw-away fashion. When giving, go for a top luxury brand that your loved ones will adore. Case in point our covet list below which will inspire awe those gifted. For the ladies, Fendi, the Italian family owned brand known for furs, and their infamous 90's baguette, new it offering is the "peekaboo". This one in painted python. Or if you're yearning for an American classic then do Tiffany &Co's crocodile satchel. It will have a place in your bag museum for years. It's not a cliche' that diamonds are forever and the venerable brand Cartier's diamond and emerald secret watch is a one of a kind show piece fit for a literal queen. Chanel's lion time-piece is pure lavishness on a wrist. Both are more of an investment that pure purchase. If the lady has an unusually spicy style then go for these turquoise and emerald Chicuita dangles from deGrisogono. They too are one of a kind but will make an ensemble look drop dead gorgeous. For footwear we chose Roger Vivier's pink crystal encrusted ballet flats for intense foot-bling. And Rene' Caovilla's kitten heel with mink fur poof are jewelery for the feet. There is something very delicious about wearing a fine fur. Its warmth and touchable softness, a girl cannot tire of. I've never regretted buying a fur that causes personal delight when wearing. Our picks are this brightly-hued chubby from Frenchman Yves Solomon and the of-the-moment must have, the fur vest; this one from Timo Weiland. A watch is a sign of power and style for important men and you can't go wrong with Swiss watch-maker, F. P. Journe's chronometre' or the Roman jeweler, Bulgari's platinum Octo. Both have a masculine gentility that he will love and will become the go-to time-piece in his watch cabinet. Salvatore Ferragamo's lux crocodile sneaker is great for that business titan in your life who needs to look pulled together even when he plays. Rimowa's special edition luggage in partnership with Neville Wakefield, is their latest installment in practically indestructible travel-cases for globe trekkers. The whimsical Hermes, is

Every year Karl Lagerfeld takes the pre-fall show on the road in order to spread the gospel of Chanel throughout the land -- not that anyone needs convincing. The double c's still hold immense allure with the designer as an awesome creative force, and cheerleader for the brand. The grouping of clothing called pre-fall, which is available for purchase in June is called Metier d'art. The latest installment drops the red pin on Salzberg, Austria. Lagerfeld uses each destination as a source of inspiration, this one delving into the history and traditions of the region. The festivities were kicked off with the film, "Reincarnation" in which Pharrell Williams and the model Cara Delevigne play historical characters in a passion play. This set the tone for the following day's fashion show at a castle where the models walked through room after room of gilded interiors.

When Karl Lagerfeld asks, usually celebrities say yes please. This is the case with grammy winner and current pop-culture icon, Pharrel Williams. He and model Cara Delevingne are the main actors in a short film directed and created by the Chanel designer, called "Reincarnation". The release date is December 2, 2014 a day before the presentation of the Metiers d'art show or pre-fall presentation.

During the early 20th century, at the time of Picasso and Stravinsky, a group of creative visionaries formed the Cafe Society. This group of artists, writers, intellectuals, musicians and grande dames was shaped by a desire to confront reality while basking in bohemian, cutting-edge convictions, ways of life and extravagant art events. It was a group that cultivated talent and one in which Gabrielle Chanel partook.
