Some girls lust after iconic jewlery. I am not one of them, but I understand that there's quite a group out there clammering for items like Tiffany & Co's lockets, or keys or whatever and Cartier trinity rings or their "love" series.
However, there is something about the "love" collection that's somewhat appealing. The fact that your bracelet gets "locked" onto your wrist and only your (financially bolstered) significant other has the key with which to remove it... There's a charm to that I suppose. But while I am fully capable of removing my own jewelry, thank you very much, I could use an external locus of control when it comes to my consumption. Which is why I think that Cartier is overlooking a huge potential market by not adding a "muzzle" to their commercially successful love collection.
I think that if anyone could overcome the social stigma of being muzzled, its Cartier. I'm sure that they could work their classic lines and simple detailed magic on something as initially barbaric as a muzzle. I mean, if Victoria's Secret and finagle a functional bra (not to mention other "undies") out of gemstones and metals, Cartier with its infinite class and tradtion should be able to give the good 'ol muzzle a much needed makeover.
Because realistically, if there's one item I wear that requires my loving boyfriend's assistance in removal, its not a bracelet (or even glittering bra set), it's a god damn muzzle.
Maybe that would prevent carb catastrophes like our table's record NINE bread baskets last night. whoops.
Just a thought.
