Like a lot of small-business owners, I spend my free time sitting at the bar, telling my friends and random winos that my career would be MADE if only a huge celebrity bought something from me.

Way back in June, I was delighted by musician Lenny Kravitz’s so-wrong-it’s-right, retro, mobile-phone handset. When I was in Paris last month, I saw the handsets by Native Union at Colette. They come in a range of colors and cost 35 euros, including VAT (approx. $50). You can also buy the handset from Amazon for [...]

Y’all know I love Family Guy. However, as the great philosopher Meat Loaf sang, “I’d do anything for love (but I won’t do that.)” In this case, “that” is a custom-made, 12-carat, ruby-and-diamond Stewie Griffin necklace, like the one purchased by Justin Bieber and inflicted upon my eyes by TMZ.com. When I saw this, I [...]

I take back everything bad I’ve said about Courtney Love because I’m loving the contact high I got from her insane interview with The Fix, a website about addiction and recovery. Courtney isn’t as compulsively quotable as Charlie Sheen. There is no “winning” or “tiger blood” or “I am on a drug, it’s called CHARLIE [...]

I’m a great believer in the “push present” for women who have just had babies. It doesn’t matter if you’ve given birth or adopted. All big occasions should be celebrated with jewelry, and becoming a mother is pretty damn big. Check out my website or contact me to discuss a custom design. You can read [...]

Some recent celebrity news has reminded me of an experience I had in 2006. Once upon a time in that year, a troubled starlet who had attended a glamorous film-industry event reported that her tres chic handbag was missing. The bag was filled with jewelry, including jewelry that she had borrowed to wear to the [...]

My Baby Is Average tumblr (via Princess Poochie). Nicki Minaj’s rap in Kanye West’s “Monster.” Josh Groban singing Kanye West’s Tweets: As far as I know, Kanye West has nothing to do with the Average Baby tumblr. Thank goodness. I wouldn’t want people to think I have a Kanye West obsession.
