Beats by Dre Launches new Jewellery Line

Is it a bird or a plane? Is it a necklace or a headphone? Maybe a neck warmer even? From the pictures below it is rather hard to tell. And trust me when I say this, but celebs are not alone on this trend. Everyday people do it too. Statistics show that these headphones spend more time round owners' necks than being used for what they were meant for. Which, I kid you not, happens to be listening to music. It surely isn't the most discrete of headphones. My point is, we can all see you possess a Beats by Dre item, even when it isn't on your neck so please do the right thing people. Or better still get yourselves a rucksack, man purse or something to put that thing in when not in use. 

Are Babies being Baby-ed Too Much?

We stumbled upon this by chance, the Tummy Tub Baby Bath. A design originating from the Netherlands, this tub is meant to make bathing babies easier as it causes them to take on the foetal position they are accustomed to. Along with some other advantages like being ergonomic and so on, it makes child bathing easier. A similar concept of re-creating some of the environment in the womb, are sound therapy CD's, which mimic heart beat to soothe cranky babies.

The question is, should babies not begin to get accustomed to the world as it is, rather than be attached to pre-birth conditions?

Desperate Scousewives

Is the new show on British TV set to take viewers by storm. Literally. What to expect? Big blonde hair-extensions are a must, glittery skimpy dresses-some of Francesca's designs are fab, and meaningless conversations. We would like to think that all this is just for show and none of it depicts reality, however it is a "dramality". And yes this word actually exists. 
So if you watch the Kim K's, Joey's and Hugo's of this world, Desperate Scousewives is right up your street.
