Got Extra Money to Spend?

 

Actually, got a LOT of extra money to spend? While looking for the most exclusive and expensive things money can buy, one thing became really clear to me. All you need to do is add gold, platinum, silver, diamonds and other precious stones to anything and you have earned yourself the ‘most expensive’ tag for that particular item category. So while it wasn’t surprising to see the most expensive, dresses, lingerie, shoes, watches and of course pieces of jewelry full of the above, some other items were quite shocking to say the least. Precious metals and stones were added to the most unthinkable items. So here you have it, all the bling and baubles in the most unlikely places.
