The KABE Royal Tower is a double-decker caravan. The 25 foot long camper is 14 feet high, allowing people to stand up straight even on the top deck. The lower deck features a living room, kitchen and breakfast dinette, plus a bedroom with single beds, while the upper deck has a ‘lounge’ with an L-shaped sofa and a cocktail cabinet. A door from the lounge leads out onto the roof of the front section, which serves as a sunbathing terrace. The new double-decker caravan is fully equipped with air conditioning on both floors, a dishwasher and more. Price: EUR 105,000.

The Breitling Superocean Heritage is one of the famed watch company’s hottest and most stylish watches, with a new twist for 2008. The traditional steel strap has been replaced by a high density rubber strap which makes the face of the watch look even more dramatic. It’s pricey at $3,120, but if you’re looking for a memorable gift that will be with him for a lifetime, check it out.

Being a classic motor bike enthusiast myself, when I read about French designer Jerome Coste’s new Ruby line of helmets (keep in mind that this is a man who has survived six head traumas), I figured I had to blog about it. His work draws inspiration from Tokyo’s Shibuya shopping district (for which he named this peppermint looking helmet) as well as from the stars of Easy Rider, I can only suspect.  To finance production on these full-carbon helmets (which are essentially the same kind worn by Formula One drivers) he sold his own bike. I just love everything about this product!

Available currently at Dover Street Market  and Selfridges.

There are few things that satisfy a tech geek’s fetish for the sublimely odd than USB flash drives in funny shapes. Ask and ye shall receive: Mimoco has a line of flash drives called Mimobots that are modeled after pop icons and other, less identifiable characters. There is a growing variety of Mimobots whose heads pop off to reveal a USB 2.0 connector.

The Star Wars series includes Chewbacca, Darth Vader and an Imperial Stormtrooper. There’s also a 1950s series, complete with Elvis and Betty Lou (think of the Pink Ladies from Grease), and a line of core Mimobots. The limited edition Mimobot drives — only 3,500 units will be made (and some series as few as 500) — come in 1GB, 2GB and 4GB capacities and range in price from $49 to $99. The drives ship with bonus material, including Star Wars wallpaper, videos and sound bites.

If you’re looking for that fantastic gift, think about a mimobot!
