Sex and Perfume Bottles

Yesterday was one of those days.  Woke at 4 a.m. with horrible pains in the stomach and back.  Huh, what gymnastics did I do in bed to cause this?  Well, none, duh, I was sleeping alone.  Just that 24-36 hour flu that had me prone and moaning all day yesterday with stomach cramps, headache, aches everywhere.  The only thing that made me happy was when I could eat last night and went in for the Healing Food – Oreos. Don’t even judge.

My other happiness – Christian Dior Grand Bal.  No review yet, but this thing is so freaking pretty and lovely to wear, it almost makes me cry.  And it was a tremendous comfort in my sickitude yesterday. But it’s not helping so much today with this horrible neck cramp I have from sleeping badly yesterday.

Something fun for today – The Frisky published their Ten perfume Bottles that look like Sex Toys.  Perfume bottles have been phallic forever (Guerlain’s lobed stopper top???), and the tops that look like flowers?  Um, right, yeah, flowers.  The Frisky is absolutely right on Cartier Pasha and J’Adore – Cartier loves to make smutty perfume bottles.   There are some others that qualify, and these are some off the top of my still-aching head that I’ll nominate for our own Sex and Perfume Bottles Award Category.  Which is our new contest since the Fifi Award Winners this year was such a disappointment. Well, it is every year,

I don’t know if you can post pictures in comments, but put in a link if you can to your nominee for Most Overtly Sexual Perfume Bottle, and I’ll post the collection of them sometime in the next week so we can vote on which one is really the most sexual perfume bottle ever made.  Winner will get something!  I’ll figure it out when we get there.
