Easter is almost here and what better way to enjoy it than with a one of a kind Egg Hunt in THE city of the Olympics this year - London!

210 eggs (created by names such as Mulberry, Diane Von Furstenberg, Selfriges a.o.) have been put o display for The Grand Eggstravaganza! in Covent Garden where they can be admired 2rd to 9th of April. Hurry up and have a look at what you will be searching for aftwerwards in London's city for 40 days and nights.

There is of course a nice surprise behind this "treasure hunt" - there are keywords to be found on each egg, and for each correct one submitted,there will be one more chance for you in a draw which could have you at the end as the winner of the Faberge Diamond Jubilee Golden Egg (estimated around 100.000 pound sterling - see picture below). Enjoy the hunt and don't forget to be a kid again!

Oh, and one more thing - if you decide to, and it is still available, you can own an egg of the 210, just by winning an auction for it, so start bidding now!

Easter Eggs - The luxurious way

Easter is a celebration with a high significance to Christians. But over the time, just like the red and fat Santa Claus has been introduced to traditions by Coca Cola, so has commerce developed around the Easter period and companies grab the opportunity to do some outstanding Marketing actions. Such as designing a special Easter egg for their clients and limiting that edition to certain pieces, so that they make that item desirable and artificially rare.

I must say that, even if also luxury houses do this, I find that some of their results are really amazing. It is, of course, very important with whom they team up so that the eggs not only carry the brand name, but also taste good. I have picked some examples of what can be done, in the following order: Swarovski for 2011, Roberto Cavalli for 2010, Armani Dolci for 2010, Harrods for 2011, 2010 and 2009 and at the bottom of the page, Selfridges' over 1500$ egg from 2009. Enjoy and have a wonderful Easter time!
