Just when you were getting used to the idea of leaving the house in more than one layer, Dallas-based, mega-luxe department store Neiman Marcus thrusts the holidays upon us. It’s that time of year again: The 2006 Christmas Big Book has arrived. The emphasis is really more on the ooh-and-ah worthy spreads than on buying, so it seems. DVF dresses, Cole Haan satchels, David Yurman gems — they’re all there, even crystal-embellished barbell and jump rope sets.
But the real appeal comes with the various over-the-top, one-of-a-kind offerings featured: A chance to charter a Virgin Galactic to space (at $1.75 million), an all-star sports celebrity package (starting at $250,000), and a His & Hers Twike commuter vehicle ($40,000).

Yes, Virginia, such unbelievable gifts really do exist.
This year’s big book celebrates the 80th anniversary of the catalogue, which was first sent to Neiman’s best customers in 1926. Peruse through the items yourself – if you can stand it – at NeimanMarcus.com
