Paris Fashion Week 2009 - Bathrobe Style

Attendees of this year's Paris Fashion Week - It seems that the bathrobe trend is still in style.

Marilyn Monroe's bathrobe sells for $120,000

An auction in Las Vegas has netted $120,000 for a short terry bathrobe, purportedly the last piece of clothing Marilyn Monroe wore before her death. I find that infinitely more creepy than the $63,000 somebody paid in the same auction for a costume jewelry necklace she once wore.

This is the auction where Elvis's prescription pill bottles went on the block. And, a day after Michael Jackson died, a signed "Jackson 5" album, originally priced at about $600 went for an unexpectedly high $33,000.

Spa in Shanghai dedicated to Barbie Enthusiasts

By Rachel Siegel

After celebrating her 50th birthday at New York Fashion Week, Barbie is proving that fifty isn't slowing her down!

In April 2009, after packing her runway wardrobe in pink plastic suitcases suitcases, Barbie landed in Shanghai, opening her first ever flagship store made up of all things Barbie. A more recent addition to the store is a Barbie Spa for future Barbies and Princesses alike, and the people who drive them there.

If you ever resented the fact that your Barbie was the one you brushed and pampered all day long, then resent no more! The Spa services include facials, body scrub, manis and pedis, Barbie influenced haircuts, and face painting for the little ladies that dare to make a statement. And if 50 year old Barbie is any indication of what one can expect from the spa services, the pink haven might have hit the goldmine!
