Pretty in Pearl

I foster fond childhood memories of sneaking into my mother’s jewelry box after raiding her closet, wrapping myself in oversized silk scarves and stumbling around in a pair of high-heels while grabbing as many mix-matched rings, bracelets and necklaces as I could get my little paws on. Eventually going on to bedazzle anything from a pair of jeans to my first cell phone, it is evident that my girlish love for all things sparkly started at a young age…and apparently hasn’t stopped since.

Aside from the lavish fairytale-esque frocks that swept Chanel’s under-the-sea Spring 2012 runway collection, nothing grabbed my attention quite like the tiny pearls embellished on the faces, bodies and hair of each of the models. Adorned down spinal cords, snaked around ear cartilages and dispersed throughout elegant up-do’s, these self-adhesive pearls, in my eyes, stole the show.

Think this is something you could rock in real life? Try these super affordable craft pearls from Martha Stewart on Amazon.com and let the bedazzling begin!

Vajazzle Snazzes Up Your Lady Business

While reviewing Spa Week offerings, my eyes rolled over an unfamiliar term, “Vajazzling.” The treatment involves a vigorous bikini wax (read: not a hair down there) followed by jewel application in an artful design of your choice. Blinged-out nether regions? Now I’ve seen it all.

Since Jennifer Love Hewitt revealed her penchant for bedazzling her va-jay-jay on “Lopez Tonight,” salon phones have been buzzing with women seeking Swarovski-encrusted girly bits. Interesting idea, yes, but I just don’t understand the appeal of a vagina that looks like a cheap cell phone cover.

So, would you vajazzle?
