Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is delighted to present the Rolls-Royce Black Badge Ghost Ékleipsis Private Collection, inspired by the seldom-seen wonder of a solar eclipse. Harnessing the incredible forces of this celestial phenomenon, these exquisite commissions explore the captivating interplay of light and darkness, recreating the awe-inspiring moment when the Moon completely obscures the Sun.The mysterious, ethereal light cast by a total solar eclipse is captured in the Lyrical Copper exterior colour of the motor car. This stunning Bespoke finish incorporates powdered copper pigment, which appears darker until it catches the light when it produces a rich and dramatic iridescence. Mandarin adorns the inserts below the Pantheon Grille and brake callipers, recalling the intense pulses of sunlight witnessed as the eclipse progresses. The same Mandarin hue is used for the hand-painted coachline, which includes a delicate abstract representation of the transition from sunlight to darkness as the Moon approaches to cover the Sun.The Rolls-Royce Black Badge Ghost Ékleipsis features a fully Bespoke Starlight Headliner with a special animation that, like the eclipse that inspires it, gives those inside a true sense of awe and wonder. As the coach doors close and the engine is started, the ‘stars’ in the Starlight Headliner darken and a mesmerising sequence begins, replicating the totality of the solar eclipse, when the dark silhouette of the Moon completely obscures the bright light of the Sun.

Last month, Supreme was acquired for $2.1 billion by VF Corp., owner of Vans, Timberland, and North Face. Now, Business Insider reports the most comprehensive collection known of archive Supreme box logo T-shirts is set to go on private sale at Christie's. The auction house says they expect the 253-shirt collection to be sold for somewhere in the region of $2 million, or about $7,900 per shirt. The seller is 21-year-old James Bogart, who started collecting Supreme products when he was only 14. The T-shirts were originally released in 1994. Bogart spent years building the only complete set of Supreme Box Logo T-shirts known to exist. The Supreme Box Logo Tee embodies more than 25 years of street culture, with skateboarding within its DNA and as a graphic device. It is almost unparalleled in being both ubiquitous and prevalent but never reaching the point of over-saturation. James Bogart, collection owner
If you've never bought a home before, you may be surprised to learn that there's a lot to know about mortgages. In its simplest form, a mortgage is a type of loan. It's used for buying a home, and it's repaid in monthly installments--usually over 15 to 30 years. According to Business Insider, the payment you finally end up paying for your mortgage actually covers a number of things. The principal is the amount the lender gives you upfront. If you borrow $200,000 from the bank, then the principal is $200,000. A little of this is paid back each month. But you'll also pay interest--the cost of your loan. The interest is built into your monthly payment. You'll also pay property taxes, which are based on the assessed value of your home, and your mill levy--which varies depending on where you live. Homeowners insurance is mandatory, too, and is built into the payment. In 2017, the average annual policy cost $1,211. Finally, you'll also probably have to pay for private mortgage insurance, or PMI, costing from 0.2% to 2% of your loan principal per year.
