Green and Gold Globe 
You wouldn’t think there would be too many innovations left for the globe world, but MOVA managed a major shift with its now-famous self-rotating globes. Using solar cells, magnets and the Earth’s magnetic field, these acrylic balls continuously rotate themselves on a variety of available stands to suit multiple aesthetics. While many designs are available, few prove as evocative and inspiring as the golden world across the deep emerald seas of the posh Green and Gold Globe, but feel free to match the mood of your room with personalized combinations of globe and stand designs. Pictured: $328.

Relax, Rejuvenate and Heal at StolenTime

At the namesake luxury, 5-star all-inclusive resort in Saint Lucia, the concept of “stolen time” used to be reserved for couples escaping to canoodle, reconnect and perhaps rekindle in sumptuous accommodations during a romantic getaway on the lush Caribbean island. But when StolenTime by Rendezvous rebranded in late 2022 to welcome all adult guests and focus more on wellness, the philosophy expanded to encompass self-reflection, personal growth and enrichment. After all, time is our most precious commodity, one that’s finite and too quickly slips through our grasp; we need to find those moments that matter and make them count.
