High End Gifts for the Wealthy

David Beckham Gave His Wife a Rare, Signed Fashion Book

In December 2007 (Christmas Day actually), Michelle Cheplic reported that David Beckham gave his wife (Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham) a very unique present – a fashion book, titled Valentino Garavani: First Name in Fashion. Michelle’s blog entry was titled Holly Jolly Celebrity Gifts–Spice Girl Style.

There are only 2,ooo copies of the book, and Becks spent $1,500 on the gift.

Because the book is rare, there are only a few places you can purchase the book. As of today, it looks like there are 13 copies available on Amazon.uk (priced at £750.00 each). You might also have luck searching on ebay to see if anyone is selling a copy.

JT Gave Jessica & Cameron Custom Surfboards and Sex Wax

Back in November 2007, Celebitchy reported that “Justin Timberlake gave Jessica Biel the same gift he gave to Cameron” (Cameron Diaz, of course).

The gift in question was a combination of a custom surfboard from Evolution Surf and a year’s supply of Mr. Zog’s Sex Wax (that’s just wax for a surfboard!).

While I guess it’s not cool to give the same gift to two different girlfriends, the gift idea itself was unique (the first time). And, Evolution Surf has high-end, in-demand products, with a great list of celebs providing testimonials on its site, including:

  • Drew Barrymore
  • Jennifer Aniston
  • Mark RufFalo
  • Adam Sandler
  • Uma Thurman
  • Leonard DiCaprio
  • Tyra Banks
  • Rob Schneider (where goes Adam, so does Rob! Rob, I’m a fan, so sorry for the snide comment)
  • Pierce Brosnan
  • Jack Nicholson
  • …you get the point…
LX.TV produced a nice video highlighting Evolution Surfboards, titled the evolution of surfing starts with design (see below)
