That Bitch Has Everything

As if it wasn't bad enough that she has legs down to there, a nonexistent waist, a never-ending list of couturiers wanting to design for her and basically the best career ever (for someone with ADD anyway), Barbie now has Jonathan Adler on the pay roll.

Available come Fashion Week, the $50 doll comes with a night table, lamp and of course, 3 mini-vases.

Must be nice. Must be nice.

Graff Burgled: $65 Million Stolen


We're just saying: If we, say, were the purveyors of a luxury boutique with a shop in London or Paris, here's what we're doing - closing up shop for awhile! What the heck is going on in those towns? Graff's New Bond Street location was raided on Thursday with $65 million worth of jewels seized in a heist that goes down in Britain's record books. The armed robbers made off with 43 items of jewelry including rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches before firing a shot on the street (no one was injured) and jumping into a getaway car.

This is only the latest in a series of jewelry heists across Europe, following in the wake of Cartier (July), Chopard (May) and Harry Winston (December), not to mention the slate of luxury robberies by the "Pink Panthers" a group of luxury burglers that have plagued London since 2003.
