Rolls-Royce has just released the official details and images of the 200EX – the ‘smaller’ Rollie. Although, the name will undoubtly change to something classier.  Set to arrive in 2010, the production model will mirror a lot of the exterior and interior designs from the prototype that will be featured at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking like a combination of the Phantom and the Drophead Coupe it is rumored to be powered by a new V12. Inside, the usual double R ameneties. Is it just me, or are those wheels straight up Bentley Continental?

One of our favorite brands has a nice jacket option for Spring. The Nom De Guerre bomber length parka jacket features some great military detailing, is slim fit and has a covered zip. Other stats included a half zip nautical hood, zip and compartment sleeve pocket and engineered collar and cuffs. Available here.

With everybody and their mom’s going nuts over Shepard Fairey’s work for Obama, the Obama logo itself should not and cannot be overlooked. Leave it to creative director Sol Sender to explain the conception of the Obama 08 logo, along with the strategy behind it and other developmental concepts that never made it through. Sender was the creative director and principal of his own design firm, Sender LLC in Chicago, when he was hired to create the campaign logo.

Say what you want about Rolex. They make an incredible watch, they’re aggressive pricing strategies are…. aggressive, but at least you know when you buy one you’re not going to lose money on it.  This is the new stainless GMT Master II, notice the ceramic bezel, green highlights, laser engraving and new case design. It’s been out for awhile now and while they’re incorporating a lot of these features into the other models, none of them match the esthetics of this, except of course maybe this one.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again.  I lie awake some nights wondering what would happen if Adidas Stan Smith’s and BAPE’s had too much tequila and hit the backseat of a car in a Zeller’s parking lot. With the Golden Goose Star Sneakers, I wonder no longer. As part of the Italian brand’s new Spring/Summer 2009 footwear drops, there is a low top and hi top (after the jump) both in high quality ‘faux weathered’ leather. Available here.

Most people aren’t aware, but Mercedes-Benz has a line of armored vehicles for those of us who need that little extra protection from those rabid soccer moms with road rage.  The latest addition to the automaker’s like is the E-Guard based on the standard E-Class but with a bevy of security upgrades which include body armor in the chassis, bulletproof polycarbonate windows, a blast-proof floor and run-flat 17-inch tires.  Basically this will be the only car that Chris Brown should be driving in for the next little while.
