'Cool' thingamabobs

1) Drinkwear by Carrie and Co.
Set of four brightly coloured “tennis shoe” coasters that slip onto the “foot” of your glass and let you wander. Put your glass down wherever you like without worrying about finding a coaster.


2) Beer bands by Fred
All beers are created equal, or so it seems when you're trying to find yours at a party. So just stretch a beer band around your bottle or can and separate yourself from the pack.


3) Ice cube Tray by LEGO®
LEGO® has always been super cool so this just seems perfect. Made out of flexible durable silicone this is child safe and totally non toxic. Igloos anyone?


4)Diamond Ice by Fred
Pseudo bling to jazz up any party. Love the tongue in cheek kitsch of is. And you just set cranberry juice ice cubes for rubies or lemon juice ones for emeralds!


5)Pink Elephants by Accoutrements
Lots of alcohol = pink elephants. Atleast that is what Dumbo taught us.

The Bizarre Bling countdown

From merely odd to truly bizarre.


5) Bling for your pocket
Crystals on your phone, your PDA and your iPod. Incidentally, I don’t get goth bling at all. Bling is about the flashy shiny-shiny ka-ching life. Goth is about cynicism and existential angst… this is like “I shine therefore why am I?”


4) Bling for your sole
Designed for Reebok by Manish Arora ‘Fish Fry' shoes cost between Rs 6,000 to Rs 20,000. There are 12 designs made of leather, suede and specialized mettalic fabric. Welcome to the world of couture sneakers.


3) Bling for your bath
Diamante Duck. To add a splash of shine to your bathtime.


2) Bling for your game
The Xbox 360 just got glitzy. Used as a secret weapon: opponents get distracted by the console and ignore the screen.



1) Bling for your thirst
Bling H20, the ultimate in designer bottled water… To quote, “Limited edition, corked, 750 ml, recyclable frosted glass bottles, exquisitely handcrafted with Swarovski Crystals”. My only question being WHY??
