Ralph Lauren invests in southern Spain with new store in Marbella
This new store sells a selection of Polo Ralph Lauren items for men and women, including polo shirts, pants, Oxford shirts, T-shirts, and caps. Also available are the Purple Label line for men and the Ralph Lauren Collection for women.
The boutique's interior design is inspired by the southern Spanish coast and the traditional architecture of the area, while also incorporating nods to Ralph Lauren's classic American heritage. Thus, some of the elements that define the space are the terracotta floors, painted tiles, aged bronze metal elements, or vintage furniture.
"The opening of the new store in Marbella reinforces Ralph Lauren's commitment to deliver elevated lifestyle experiences in key international markets for consumers," explained the brand in a statement.
With the arrival of summer, many brands are choosing to settle in Marbella and its surroundings: Dolce & Gabbana returns this season to the beach club La Cabane, while Coccinelle has settled temporarily in El Corte Inglés Marbella. In terms of real estate, but without leaving luxury, Versace announced just a few days ago the launch of a real estate development in Marbella, with houses for sale for 12 million euros.
The impact of luxury in the area is indisputable: .

How Trump adapts his tariff threats for economic, diplomatic and ideological ends
Donald Trump added the European Union to his list of countries facing the threat of new customs duties on Saturday, July 12. In a message posted on Truth Social, his private social network which has become the primary communication channel for the White House, the US president stated that products imported from the European Union would be subject to a 30% surcharge if no agreement is reached that meets his expectations – specifically, a "complete open" European market for American goods. On July 7, Trump acknowledged that his commercial threats had yet to yield results and, by executive order, postponed the deadline for implementing the unilateral tariff increases – originally announced on April 2 and already delayed once – to August 1. These repeated delays have earned the US president an unflattering acronym: TACO, for Trump Always Chickens Out. Markets, for their part, were largely unmoved when the White House occupant again brandished the threat of tariff hikes in letters sent to major US trading partners, including South Korea and Japan, on July 8. After Canada on July 10, Mexico was the next recipient of these messages posted on Truth Social on Saturday. While the United States' northern neighbor was threatened with a 35% increase in import taxes, a 30% hike was directed at its southern partner. In both cases, the president mixed often questionable economic arguments with considerations unrelated to trade.

Capucine, 27, mergers and acquisitions analyst, €5,300 a month: 'We looked at the salaries and said we were going to live like royalty'
I earn €5,300 net per month, or rather £4,500, since I work in London at a major American bank. That is my base salary, but in this field, what really matters is the bonus, which you get once a year and increases quickly as you move up. I have been a mergers and acquisitions analyst for three years now, so I am hoping to get a €77,000 gross bonus this year. My job is to advise companies that want to buy other companies, or be bought themselves. It is called M&A, for mergers and acquisitions. I am on the healthcare team, which deals with everything related to the health sector. I start work around 9:30 am and usually finish at midnight, but it really varies. Sometimes I work until 4 am, all night, or I finish at 8 pm. In that case, I am usually too tired to do anything with my evening. Career progression is defined year by year – analyst one, two, and then three, before becoming an associate and then a senior. The work environment is competitive: for bonuses, the bank sets an overall budget for each group of employees and then divides it among them based on their rankings.

The future of flight? First electric aeroplane lands in Denmark
A small aeroplane cruising toward Copenhagen may have looked ordinary to most Danes on the ground – but unlike every other flight in Danish history, this aircraft was all electric. The US aerospace company Beta Technologies' electric plane, ALIA CTOL, completed a 200 kilometre journey between Sønderborg and Copenhagen airports this week, marking Denmark's first test flight with an aircraft that burns no fuel and can be charged in less than an hour. The company says the fixed-wing electric aeroplane provides a safe, quiet, and low-cost alternative to traditional aircraft and helicopters. With its wingspan of 15 metres, ALIA CTOL is the size of a Sprinter van. It can fly at a maximum speed of 281 kilometres per hour, according to Beta Technologies. The aeroplane also emits up to 84 per cent less carbon dioxide than a traditional helicopter of a similar size. 'Many say that green aviation is something for the future,' Jákup Sverri Kass, director of Sønderborg Airport, said at the take-off event in the city 325 kilometres west of Copenhagen. 'But we are standing here today and seeing that the future has begun. This is not just a test. This is the start of something new,' he added. The American aeroplane kicked off a European grand tour in May from Shannon Airport in Ireland. It has since dropped by multiple airports on the continent to demonstrate the aircraft's all-electric operation and charging infrastructure. In August, the plane will begin operating cargo flights between Bergen and Stavanger in Norway as part of tests on zero-emission aviation led by the Norwegian Civil Aviation Authority. Charging is the main challenge ALIA CTOL is designed for regional flight and can be configured for both passenger and cargo travel with up to five passenger seats. Beta Technologies says the longest distance the aircraft has flown on a single charge is 622 kilometres. The plane can be charged using a standard fast charger for electric cars in just 20 to 40 minutes, the company says. The short-range aeroplane has been carrying its own charger and plugging it into a power unit at airports, which takes longer, due to the lack of permanent charging facilities. It has been making pit stops to charge at airports across Europe. 'There's no existing infrastructure on the ground in Europe like there is in the United States today,' Shawn Hall, the company's chief revenue officer, said from the tarmac at Copenhagen Airport after the plane landed. In Denmark, Copenhagen Airport CEO Christian Poulsen told Euronews Next the airport will need to adapt its infrastructure to be able to charge aircraft and accommodate a mix of traditional and electric aeroplanes 'when these aircraft come to town'. The cost of batteries and other lightweight materials will be another factor for electric aeroplane manufacturers to contend with, according to Jørgen Mads Clausen, chair emeritus of the Danish battery system giant Danfoss. He predicts 'battery technology' for larger electric planes will be available within the next decade. 'But just like with electric cars, it's important to be ready when things take off. Because when the technology matures, things will move fast,' Clausen said at the take-off event. Sustainable aviation in Europe The Danish government has committed to launching its first fully sustainable domestic flight route by 2025, with a broader target that all domestic routes will be fossil-free by 2030. This year, it has introduced a flat fee of 13 Danish kroner (€1.74) per passenger to finance the transition toward sustainable domestic flight. Several Nordic countries have committed to climate goals for their aviation industries. In Norway, all domestic flights aim to be electric or hybrid by 2040, while in Sweden, all domestic flights should be fossil-free by 2030 and international flights are expected to follow by 2045. A Swedish-American company, Heart Aerospace, is developing a 30-passenger plane, the ES-30, designed to have a fully battery-powered range of 200 kilometres. Other countries in Europe, such as the Netherlands, France, and the United Kingdom, have also tested similar-sized e-planes. But currently electric planes can, at best, fly regionally within Europe because of their battery range, which means other technologies to reduce flight emissions could also help countries meet their sustainability targets. Lasse Stenhøj Ingvardsen, a team manager of Renewable Energy Systems at the Danish Technological Institute, told Euronews Next that different technologies can be explored for sustainable aviation. Many European countries are investing in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), a type of fuel made from renewable resources, as well as hydrogen fuel, which doesn't emit carbon dioxide. 'The SAF fuel will be one tool. The electric will be another tool. The hybrid solution will be a third tool. Maybe we will see hydrogen planes,' said Ingvardsen, who was not involved with the recent test flight. 'We don't need to stick to only one'.
