Oh, and here are those cute car lashes if you didn’t catch them on our Facebook Page last week.  (You should totally like us if you don’t already!!)

Faceless Watch

I am all about being different, but this is just a little silly IMO.  Diesel sells this Black Label “No Face” watch for nearly $400.  The face of the watch is made of stainless steel…yep no watch on the face.  Instead the time pieces are featured on the SIDES of the watch.  You can set [...] MORE

I guess this is just like a parking meter, but on a park bench.  You avoid the spikes when you drop your quarters in…but make sure you aren’t wearing your iPod or you will miss the warning buzzer!
