Note to designers:

I don't care what it is -- a doll, a dress, a lamp shade, a cell phone, anything -- but putting Swarovski crystals on it makes it neither more attractive nor more desirable.

I like sparklies.. ^^;

I'm all about sparkly stuff too. I just dislike the way that designers use the phrase "Swarovski crystals" as if it's some sort of magic incantation that automatically makes the product better.

Oooh, gotcha. Yeah, Swarovski sparkles aren't any better than any other sparkles.

Or a cake. Your forgot to say "...or a cake." You don't understand, I deal with this EVERY DAY!

But the point of cake is to be delicious. Swarovski crystals are not delicious. This confuses me. :p

Are you a cake artist?

[iamdollface]

I don't consider what I do with cake art, but yes -- that is my day job. And people want Swarovski crystals on their cake. All. The. Time. I am just as confused as you are as to why.
