You can trust Swarovski to go to any magnanimous lengths to come up with anything you can imagine, in its crystals.
After a line of interesting products for its 20th anniversary, the brand has unveiled, not a clutch purse or shoes, but a Corsage in Swarovski crystals. The figure hugging garment has been a rage ever since Sex and The City star Sarah Jessica Parker adorned it.
For those with that money to splash around, this one may be the ultimate wanna-grab thing around. The difference now though is that it looks stunning with the crystals avatar by Ukrainian designer Verlingieri Lesya. The new label she has created it for is by Lever couture. The designer is 26 years young and got her degree at Modedesigerin, in mid-2007. The young designer is known to create exquisite design and processes with high-quality material such as Jacob Swarovski Schlepfer substances. Her effort in detail shows in this material.
The strapless Swarovski studded corsage is enhanced with 41,000 Swarovski crystals for that grand appearance. It costs $10,000, which makes it perhaps the most expensive of such pieces in the world.

Barbie dolls have been loved and loathed at the same time. It is every young gal’s definition of beauty and that is precisely what bothers a number of thinkers. Ablue Eyed fantasy that all children want to fulfill! Reminds me of Morrison’s The Bluest Eyes. Well, the manufacturers cant be least bothered! They have recently sold an Angelina Jolie doll for $3,000 on eBay. The doll is designed and created by Noel Cruz who is himself a fan of Jolie. The doll has Jolie’s pout lips as well as Jolie’s mole on her forehead.

Right now, the company has not decided to have more Jolie dolls but the trend may soon catch up to have Hollywood icons on the range. Who knows, the next model for Ken could very well be Jolie’s hubby Brad Pitt!!

When I heard about a shoes selling for a grand sum like this, I automatically assumed that it has to be something like Cinderella’s glass slippers that her fairy god mother gifted her. Little did I imagine that it would be a little Dorothy Gale’s shoes instead! Judy Garland, in the timeless classic The Wizard of Oz walked around in a pair beautiful ruby red shoes. The shoes look eye catching enough ot catch the attention of any one, believe me. They will be on sale at Saks Fifth Avenue, New York if you plan to go for window shopping atleast. In total there are 5 pairs that were worn by the actress in the movie.
They are expected to be sold for over $1000. Why not go ahead and try these shoes on the way Cinderella did it, may be it will fit you well and will become yours forever!
