Culture Club: Emily Rothschild Bicycle Necklace
After decoding the riddle of a product description, we figured out that the adorable Emily Rothschild Bicycle Necklace ($70) is even cooler than it looks. This spinning pendant acts just like a flip-book, with a dude on one side and a lady on the other.... [More]

Ok, so your rich uncle has collected everything but the kookiest kitsch. Please him with the lovely handcrafted Clear Bowl Radiometer ($69). This thing turns in sunlight, and the stronger it is, the faster it goes. That's really something! People didn't always know about the... [More]
Culture Club: Barbara Nanning Glass Sculpture
Oooo festive! The ruby red Barbara Nanning Glass Sculpture ($Inquire) would look great rolling out of Santa's gift bag, but please be gentle. Our favorite part is the mean gold spike piercing out of the bottom of the bowl. What an artsy bad attitude. Barbara... [More]
Doubtblush: Naughty Santa Ornament
We found this. We couldn't believe it was real - that people would pay cash-money for it when they could instead spend it on food or something awesome like this. But it IS real, and people DO buy it. There are just some things we'll... [More]

Culture Club: Venus Apron
We didn't think us making dinner could get sexier, but showing a little skin never hurts. The Venus Apron ($29) gives us nakedness without nudity and adds fine art sophistication (an essential, in our minds). Hubba hubba, love goddess, you inspire us to be all... [More]
Culture Club: Madewell Gatsby Necklace
Channel the grace, romance, and certainly the fashion of the Roaring Twenties with the Gatsby Necklace ($39, on sale) by Madewell. As easily paired with deeply feminine dresses as it is with boxy military blazers, this is one beautifully versatile necklace. A direct reference to... [More]

Culture Club: Drop Pendant Necklace
It's hard to mix contemporary and retro when we're building an outfit, so we like working on a smaller scale. The handmade Drop Pendant Necklace ($80) combines antique lucite beads and vintage chains in a new art deco look. Balance a flouncy top with some... [More]
Culture Club: Leonardo Umbrella
Rain or shine, we can still traipse around with fine art on our shoulder. The Leonardo Umbrella ($32) has all the class and sophistication of the Renaissance masters, but what we're really into is the intricate black and white print (If you're squinting - the... [More]
Culture Club: Water Lilies Earrings
Yeah, we know we wrote up a Monet Impressionism Culture Club recently, but we couldn't resist getting down with the stunning Water Lilies Earrings ($82).

Culture Club: Augustus Raised Feeders
Ok, our pooch doesn't really get the Augustus Raised Feeders ($50), and we're kinda on the fence ourselves ... Maybe if we strike the right note of parody and homage, we can make these stuffy pieces work. As long as we surround these antique bowls... [More]
