Foreign Correspondent: Footwear Designer Christian Kimber's Stylish Guide to Melbourne
Two years ago, British-born men's accessories designer Christian Kimber moved from London to Melbourne, where he founded an eponymous line of footwear. His signature suede loafers and chukka boots—shoes that look equally at home with beat-up denim and bespoke tailoring—are generally sold at local shops but can be made-to-order. From his initial concepts for a show (he uses watercolors to sketch out his ideas) to designing the brand's logo (the burnt orange color was inspired by the bright Australian mud) to managing the business, Christian oversees every stage himself.

CEOs Leave the Boardroom for the 7-Day, 150-Mile Atacama Crossing Desert Race
The Atacama Desert is the driest place on Earth, 41,000 square miles of sand and salt flats bordering the Andes Mountains in Chile. So why are corporate executives lining up to cross it? Well, if you can survive the Atacama Crossing, you can probably survive even the toughest boardroom meeting. The race, which kicks off on March 3, involves a 250-kilometer trek across harsh terrain where temperatures can reach as high as 104 degrees Fahrenheit—not pleasant when you have to carry seven days' worth of supplies on your back.
