Today I’m in a vacation mood. Sun, beaches, waves… All things summer. All things relaxing one’s spirit and mind.

But how can I relax my fashion self? I keep on going and searching and sniffing the internet for news and curiosities style related. The last one came stumbling my beach day was this reversible bikini by Billabong. Is it worth it? Having a double sided bikini? (and I’m not talking price tag. I’m talking practical issues)

When I wrote about the engraved iPhone, I really thought it was a peak of personalizing your phone. I was obviously wrong.

Personalizing your phone in the Richie Rich vision means lots and lots of little diamonds sparkling round your apple phone. Which was rather predictable. But first you’ve got to put your hands on the latest iPhone – and that could be a nasty tricky thing. Because there are 5 hours long waiting lines for some stores (the Cube from Fifth Avenue par exemple). So this Amosu Ultimo Diamond priced at $177,300 really is a piece of work. More impressive than a 5hours lineup. Ugly, unpractical but blingy all the way. Just wondering – have you ever touched a gems studded object (not only a telephone, but in this range)? How does it feel?

Missed a good ol’ “let it bling over me” post? Well here’s for the bling times sake – a new gadget to make your stomach turn in the most disgraceful sparkling nightmare.

Little dolls covered in Swarovski crystals to store your data. We’re talking about a nasty creation – the usb key by Philips and Swarovski with a Nippon aftertaste. Bling till you drop or just use a plain simple USB key like mere mortals do and still manage to live on. Does this Swarovski thing make the USB more fashionable?

Now that everyone and his dog knows how the LV monogram looks like, Louis Vuitton is taking the bling road.

A diamond logo parure with gems in the form of the brand’s monogram motif: a three-strand necklace ($2,8 million) with articulated platinum and diamond-bow closures, a 6.25 carat diamond ring with monogrammed side bands ending in a slim bow at the bottom of the ring. The images are yet to be released so I put together a photo with LV jewelry creations already available so we could have a proper image of what monogram-mania is. I don’t want to point the finger and I know that the struggle for commercial survival is a jungle ruled one, but do we really need all this tagging?

Don’t you just love a little fashion inside story? Especially when it’s about the sparkling world of diamonds and luxury jewels.

Jacob Arabo was sentenced to prison. His jail time will be effective beginning January 15th 2009. Why not effective immediately? Because the world cannot live without him, because he has to leave things in perfect order so they’ll continue to run smoothly even during his imprisonment time.

Why can’t the world live without him and who is this Jacob Arabo?

Otherwise known as Jacob the Jeweler or the King of Bling he is everything his names state him to be and more – he is the living proof of the American Dream! Coming to the States when he was only 14 from what was then the URSS (part of which confederation, Russia was in the days), he somehow managed to become a jewelry magnate. Continue reading →

I’m used to seeing fashion with a conscience at lowers levels. This time, my expectations were overwhelmed by this Maison Martin Margiela creation.

It’s part of a collection, but it’s the most impressive element of it all. The Can Tab Cascade Necklace is made of can tabs featuring gold accents for a bling-ier effect. If you think that the material used made the result more accessible, you couldn’t be more wrong! The Maison Martin Margiela Can Tab Cascade Necklace sells for $695. If you’re as creative as you are a can-beverage-user, than I dare you to outtake this Can Tab Cascade Necklace with one of your own! Ready?

Not once have I stated my love for the Ray Bans. Aviators and Wayfarers alike, they meet my demands to shine while wearing shades.

Aside from that, I’m a big fan of huge vintage-like sunglasses that I continue to wear for the 3rd year in a row just because I can’t help loving my big white framed 70s shades. Not only they’re pretty, and big, and big, and pretty, they’re also practical because size does matter when hiding away from sun. So when I heard that these Dolce and Gabbana gold framed sunglasses were world’s most expensive, I couldn’t help but wandering why pay that amount just to bling and not to actually protect yourself from direct sunlight? What’s your kind of shades?

Would it make your heart sing, knowing that 30% of your bling-jeans went to charity? And more exactly building schools in Uganda?

And more, would you wear your casual jean knowing that it has white gold buttons on the back pocket? Plus two carats diamonds on the same back pockets? I couldn’t wear crystal-adorned jeans, even if they’re for a good cause. I think they look plain ugly and charity doesn’t need bad taste products to convince me to contribute. I know I asked you about celebrity involvement in charity causes. How about this kind of products? Do they honor the cause?
