Ugh…I don’t like that word “bling.” It looks like it should be surrounded with a jagged word bubble in a comic book.

Anyways, for those who want to spend some money this weekend on diamonds, might I suggest you fly to Christie’s Auction House in London on June 11 (that’s today) and bid on some ridiculously glamorous and expensive beads and baubles.

The showcase of the collection has to be pieces from the collection of Christina Onassis:

I am diggin’ this Faberge Buddha! It is expected to realize $495,000-$595,000. I would like to start the bidding at $5.

P.S. - Doesn’t that girl in the background look like an old-school Courtney Cox?



A 14.79 carat diamond ring by Harry Winston. It’s expected to get $988,000-$1,400,000. Does anyone really need a diamond this big? It’s like the size of rat’s head.



This 38 carat diamond necklace from the collection of Christina Onassis is expected to reel in $35,600,000-$43,500,000. Maybe they can use some of that money to give this hand model a badly needed manicure.
