What is going on? When did it become popular and cool to put fake gems on everyday things? From the million dollar diamond encrusted cell phones to this:



Yes thats pepper spray...

I really just dont like this trend of putting gems all over an object and calling it luxury, I just think its tacky.

I love bling just as much as the next girl but I really draw the line at bling pepper spray and pez dispensers...

Although that diamond encrusted TV is kinda cute... mmm... shiny... would be kind of distracting if you were actually trying to watch something on it though I suppose :p
