Things I Love: Travis Noble
Written by Cortney Vaughn
Travis Noble Jr. has had a decades-long and illustrious career as a criminal defense attorney, representing those among us -- as well as professional athletes, captains of industry and celebrities -- who needed his legal acumen in an extenuating circumstance. Noble has developed a national reputation in the legal and local communities for being a strong advocate for his clients. He also has another reputation to maintain…that of a man who earned and appreciates quality and a set of curated preferences. The things he enjoys reflect another side of him -- the one with flair and strong statements. He shared with us his unique outlook on what’s fun."
GETTING AROUND: THE ROLLS ROYCE
“Growing up, my parents did not have a lot of money. I was driven around in beat-up junkers. That’s what motivated me to work hard so I could have cars in which I am proud to drive my kids. My Rolls Royce, Ferrari and Mercedes G-Class wagon are some of my most prized possessions. When I get in my car at the end of a long day, it always reminds me of how far I’ve come.”
HOME AWAY FROM HOME: Las Vegas
“If you would have asked me 20 years ago if I would be flying to Vegas just to buy a pair of shoes, I would have laughed. Now, one of my favorite things to do is book myself a weekend trip to Las Vegas, check into the Bellagio and hit the shops. I have been going to the Bellagio for 20 years now and I don’t see that changing anytime soon.”
MY STYLE: TOM FORD
“When I wake up in the morning, one of the things I look forward to most is picking out what I am going to wear that day. On days when I am in court for long periods of time, my go-to is a Tom Ford jacket. The quality and style keeps me comfortable and keeps the compliments rolling in.”
MY PRIDE AND JOYS
“Above all, my daughters mean the most to me. I most enjoy watching my 11- and 16-year old play their favorite sports -- field hockey and lacrosse -- because it makes them happy which makes me happy. I love spending time with my daughters because they remind me a lot of myself. Always wanting to stay active, go to the beach and occasionally pick up a drink from Starbucks.”
ON MY WALLS: TED COLLIER
“I started collecting Ted Collier’s artwork after seeing it at his wife’s restaurant, Katie’s Pizza & Pasta Osteria. The shapes, the colors are so distinctive. It has been fun watching Ted’s reputation grow and spread worldwide. Feels good to support someone like him who is so talented.”
