Neiman Marcus Christmas Book

Granted, there's nothing quick or easy in the Neiman Marcus Christmas book, but it sure is 15-minutes worth of fun. The catalog is filled with mostly lust-worthy items, like the Laura Mercier Essential Eye Organizer and the Valentino hobo bag.

But the reason you should flip through the online book is to check out the over the top fantasy gifts NM is famous for. One of my favorites is the utterly ridiculous Customized Cupcake Car. Those witty NM copywriters describe it as, "mind-blowing, triple-dog-dare, double-infinity forever cool." As equally amusing as the $25,000 electric motor car is picturing the person (or people) who would buy such a thing.

The fantasy section also includes his and her ICON Sport Aircrafts for $250,000 (Brad and Angie's name is written all over that gift), a Maker's Mark Distiller Experiences ($7,500) and the World's Fastest Electric Motorcycle ($73,000), which almost makes those cupcake cars seem affordable.
