When I first stumbled upon the “Plastic Body Series” jewelry by Margaux Lange, I thought the pieces were somewhat bizarre. But, being the doll lover I am I changed my mind and actually find the collection very unique and interesting.
From Hannah Zakari -
Margaux’s “Plastic Body Series” jewellery stems from a desire to re-purpose common materials (Barbie dolls!) in combination with metals. She takes pleasure in the contrast and contradiction of something mass-produced being transformed and revealed as a unique, handmade, wearable piece of art.
I really adore the “Have a Heart necklace” (Barbie boobs). I thought I’d be too afraid to wear a boobs necklace, but it’s not really all that provocative because Barbie doesn’t have any nipples! (I’ve always wondered why…?) Still, if I wore it I’d probably get a lot of attention!
Get it all here.

No, I’m not referring to porn, I’m talking about Christmas movies that get me into the holiday mood! After all, I need extra convincing that it’s actually the holiday season living in hot, snow-less Florida. So, here’s some of my favorite movies to watch this time of year…I know I probably forgot some. In no particular order—with A Christmas Story as an exception because it really is my number one.
1. A Christmas Story, 2. The Polar Express, 3. Bad Santa, 4. A Charlie Brown Christmas, 5. The Muppet Christmas Carol, 6. How The Grinch Stole Christmas!, 7. How The Grinch Stole Christmas, 8. Jack Frost, 9. Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer, 10. The Santa Clause 2, 11. Christmas with the Kranks, 12. Frosty The Snow Man
Oh, I forgot Home Alone! Love that one too.
Now, I want to know; what are some of your favorite Christmas flicks?

Again, I’ve managed to find more lust items that I’ll most likely never own… it’s the wonderful pieces of jewelry from the collaboration between Japanese brand Q-Pot and Disney. The collection is based on Mickey Mouse and Alice in Wonderland (almost everyone loves Alice?) It features amazing necklaces, rings, charms and other items that are making me wish I lived in Japan—they make the coolest stuff! My favorite pieces are the edgy Alice teardrop and Minnie Mouse rings. I’m thinking I could use Japan to door to a purchase the Minnie ring, it’s more affordable (around $150 US) than the Alice ring priced around $340 US. Has anyone ever used that site before? Otherwise, I could wait around and see if something pops up on eBay.
My favorites:
Alice Eat Me Necklace
Alice Teardrop Ring
Alice Drink Me Necklace
Alice Key Necklace
