While it was Kim Kardashian‘s $65,000 purchase of Elizabeth Taylor‘s jewels during the first round of auctions that made headlines, she was just one of hundreds who placed some pretty hefty bids on the late actress’ baubles, clothes and Louis Vuitton luggage. More »

Remember that scene in Lolita where Humbert Humbert is left alone with Lo before she goes away to sumer camp and he’s overwhelmed by erotic desire (that’s really most of the book if someone asks, driving across the country, being erotically desirous, which is different from On The Road which is about driving around the country, eating sandwiches) and in this moment that leads me to believe that he and I read ‘Annabel Lee’ very differently, he licks her eyeball? And it’s very disturbing because “spittle in the eyeball!” and also, “pedophilia!”
Now imagine how that scene would have played out if Lolita had invested in some ($15) eyelash jewelry. Answer: weirder. – via Cupcakes Take The Cake. More »

So, here’s a weird one: we were so distracted by the spectacular runway set and the exceptionally lovely clothes that we didn’t notice a bizarre little detail at Chanel… Subtly affixed to the otherwise pristine faces on the runway were little pearls, below lips and on noses, along the ears and at the eyebrow. Like piercings. Or moles…? More »
There’s a great scene in 30 Rock where someone says “The overweight guy the based Pac-Man on just died” and Tracy Jordan replies “I will eat a bowl of cherries and some ghost meat in his honor.” He could have just worn this ring! More »
Buying jewelry is the worst. Sure it starts off all fun, but then, after an hour of pawing through flea market rings and being blinded by all the sparkles blending together, you find yourself wondering, “A ring depicting a giant orangutan? In topaz? Is that me?” No! It’s not you! Someone should have told you that. Fortunately, JewelMint is here to help you out. More »

Fashion and Hollywood favorite Alexis Bittar–the man behind so many insane statement-making cuffs and cocktail rings–has unleashed his Resort 2012 lookbook upon the world and it is… crazy? Awesome? Relentlessly weird? The sprawling set of images features a mannequin (which is typical for the brand) in dozens of strange, kaleidescopic collages with recurring graphic themes like stripes and the great outdoors (lot of plants, animals, mountains and bodies of water), but you’ll have to see it for yourself.
