Yes, I Do!
Shawish Jewellery’s President and CEO Mohamed Shawesh has created an 150-carat ring carved from a single diamond which is expected to sell for $70 million – setting the world record for the world’s first all-diamond ring, according to World Records Academy: www.worldrecordsacademy.org/.
It’a a little gaudy, but when you’re talking about a $70 million diamond (that would require its own bodyguard), what else would you expect? On that note…I DO!! Thank you very much. 🙂

@GiggyThePom says Hello!
Giggy, A.K.A Gigolo the pint-sized pampered Pomeranian has taken fans of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills by storm. Best known as Lisa Vanderpump‘s adorable side-kick on the show, Giggy has gained over 50,000 Twitter followers and recently won the coveted “Golden Collar Award” for best dog in a reality show.
But it wasn’t always fun and games for the Gigster. When he started losing his hair in clumps, Giggy was diagnosed with Alopecia. It was even recommended that he be euthanized. But his owner Lisa Vanderpump would not dream of such a thing. She gives him a home-cooked diet, special baths and keeps his body warm with an endless collection of custom-made canine couture outfits.
Although he still only has fur on his head and paws, that hasn’t stopped Giggy! He is adored by an array of celebrity friends likeGerard Butler, Drake, LaToya Jackson and Andy Cohen. He has appeared on Chelsea Lately, The Today Show, Bravo, TMZ, 20/20 and, most importantly, in the arms of his loving mistress, Lisa Vanderpump.

Better sleep options with @coyuchi
Do you know what you sleep in?
Coyuchi is the first company to bring you organic bedding in the US! Choose from many different eco-friendly and natural bedding options for a better sleep.
Granite Peak Collection
Island Light CollectionTheir signature bedding is made of 100% certified organic cotton and they also have bath linens and baby items. Other materials include linen, cashmere, and pure, natural fibers.
“Anything wrinkle-free has added polyester or is coated with chemical resin,” says Karyn Barsa, CEO of Coyuchi. “Also, skip super high thread counts: The thin threads may be strengthened with—you guessed it—more chemicals. Organic cotton, by contrast, simply softens over time, and generally lasts longer.”

Charlie Gardner Collection
I love home and lifestyle products as much as every other domestic gal. @CharlieGardnerC is different from others because of their charitable donations towards local and international programs for disadvantaged youth. Grand Giving, a Charlie Gardner Foundation, helps create opportunities in disadvantaged communities for the youth by partnering with other brands, companies, and individuals that are looking to help as well. Two of the major charities Charlie Gardner has partnered with include Hoops 4 Hope, which inspire children to become productive, self-sufficient adults, and The Lunchbox Fund, which helps provide meals to at-risk and disadvantaged high school students in South Africa.
Their two candle collections India and Africa, embody the scents of the two ethnic, extraordinary places. India includes fragrant Royal Gardenia and Mosambi Blossom, exotic Indian Plum Berry and Monsoon Balsam evoke thoughts of summer nights, while the heady scent of Golden Amber Vanilla promises to invigorate. Africa smells of Indian Gardenia, and the intriguing spice of South African Sandalwood Safari Smell. Step off a wooden deck into soft, white sand; the scent of a beach house, or taste the wild vanilla pods as you’re whisked to the tropical island of Madagascar.

You can find their products exclusively at U.S. and London Anthropologie locations. For those that are eco-friendly minded, the Charlie Gardner Collection are 100% organic, natural, and recyclable!

@PearlWedCake Vodka by @PearlVodka
You don’t need a fancy white gown and a handsome groom to enjoy the new Pearl Wedding Cake Vodka!
I was really excited when I received the samples that Pearl Vodka had sent me. And before I started creating exotic cocktails, I decided to take a swig of it straight, so that I could experience the full flavor.
It was very tasty, with a wonderful flavor that wasn’t too sweet. I didn’t even need a mixer (and this is coming from someone who doesn’t care for straight liquor)! It reminded me of the smooth Panna Cotta gelato I once had, or Cold Stone Creamery’s Cake Batter ice cream, both of which I loved!
Here are some recipes from their website that look delicious (if I ever wanted to mix it with anything!).

2 oz. Fresh Sour Mix
