As fashion becomes more and more integrated into the auto industry, BMW is the latest car maker to present their newest Lifestyle Collections. From luggage creations, jackets and money clips, to toy cars for children and detailed scale models, the Germans claim the new items are a combination of high-tech innovation with emotional design.
You’re not a true car enthusiast if you don’t own at least one of your favorite brand’s accessories. Whether it’s about your outwear, traveling equipment, money or even your own kids, as a car owner you need to stay cool. That is pretty much the message that all auto makers send whenever they create their so-called “lifestyle collections.”
And that is because cars are not just about vehicles that you use for your comfort and transportation, they have to be an actual culture, part of a ritual.
Next in the line comes the outwear. BMW Jacket comes in either blue or black color and its “driver-friendly sleeves guarantee maximum freedom of movement behind the wheel”. The all-weather jacket’s two-tone, woven, water-repellent outer fabric and fleece lining will keep you warm. Ladies are not ignored by the new collection, as their own version has tapered fit.
The new wallets are made from the finest Italian calf leather, while the Money Clip is elegant and sophisticated in equal measure. Add some BMW Cufflinks with rubber inlay that feature the typical BMW kidney grille style and you’re almost perfect.
Another piece of the puzzle definitely worth checking out is the BMW M Carbon Chrono. The brushed stainless steel wrist watch is water-resistant up to 100 meters and features a carbon watch face. A bright red second hand displays the time behind the scratch-resistant mineral glass cover.
All the products are available at the BMW online shop and at selected BMW dealers.
