Brick-and-mortar shops have evolved to add online shopping and purchase options, meeting customers where they are. One luxury brand is taking that philosophy a step further.
Range Rover House was conceived to court well-to-do owners with a global series of invite-only luxury experiences at some of the world's top destinations. Multimillion-dollar homes perched on the edge of the Pacific Ocean, Mediterranean playgrounds for the rich and famous, a world-renowned historic English estate and the best ski resorts in the world are among the locales.
"As the proud creators of modern luxury, Range Rover House serves as a platform to provide our clients with a curated lifestyle experience which embodies the Range Rover brand. Through a global platform of over 20 events in some of the world's cultural destinations, from St. Tropez to Abu Dhabi and California, we have offered our clients a truly luxurious experience that far surpasses the traditional showroom or test drive," Geraldine Ingham, global managing director of Range Rover, told Newsweek. Only Range Rover, Range Rover Sport, Velar and Evoque SUV owners receive invitations to experience the Houses. Getting a golden ticket allows guests to experience fine food, elite hospitality, unique test drives and the ability to purchase a special edition model, which is exclusively available to attendees.
Each of the Houses is made to feel like a sanctuary. On-site massages and other wellness activations are paired with seminars by Land Rover brand ambassadors, art exhibitions and other curated experiences. Guests can also visit the Range Rover Design Suite, where they can customize a new model and order it.

Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie
PARIS HILTON AND NICOLE RICHIE ARE READY TO BRING A LITTLE “SANASA” to the world with Peacock's Paris & Nicole: The Encore, their first project together since their reality show The Simple Life ended in 2007. What's “sanasa”? It's a song and phrase the longtime friends created as kids and popularized on The Simple Life. The show, a cultural phenomenon in the early days of reality TV, followed them over a series of blue-collar jobs. Now they're bringing it back as an opera. “I know this is just going to make people laugh, have fun, be nostalgic and just celebrate our friendship,” Hilton said. While Richie acknowledged “you can't do Simple Life again,” she said now “felt like the right time.” The famous pair also revisit some old jobs in Arkansas, like fast-food chain Sonic, where they now have drinks named for them. “I think that there is a part of our friend- ship that the show ended up showing that people connect to,” Richie said. As for this new special, Hilton is glad to do something positive for their fans. “It's been such a crazy past couple years, and I just feel like the world needs more joy.”
