Dirty, cheap things are generally frowned upon. Adult movie stores, Frederick’s of Hollywood lingerie, street vendor hot dogs, Heidi Montag’s “Heidiwood” clothing line, Wal-Mart and Christina Aguilera are all good examples. But we found the one dirty, cheap item that actually warrants a purchase.

FishsEddy.com, a New York-based china and vintage plate shop, has an amazing line of china just begging to be bought. Designed by the amazing Cynthia Rowley, these “Dirty Dishes” plates and teacups feature the cutest little naked ladies ever. And they’re now 75% off, coming in at around $4 per plate.

There you have it. A dirty, cheap little miracle we wouldn’t mind at the dinner table.

There’s nothing grosser than the thought of all the paper and plastic containers it takes to keep hydrated in our hotter than hot climate. It’s just too convenient to swing through that Starbucks drive-thru for a latte or pick up another Evian bottle before getting in the AJ’s check-out line.  

Charles and Marie have a cup for pre-sale that feels just as cool and won’t ruin your hydrated lifestyle, but also keeps the seagulls alive and landfills spacious. This little ceramic beauty mimics your favorite store-bought coffee cup, and even has a reusable silicone top to keep you from spilling! Pre-order now for only $20, because the site continually sells out.

Designers are famous for breaking molds.

This delightful Design Within Reach King Louis Ghost Armchair designed by Phillippe Starck actually breaks the mold by using a mold, as it modifies the Kartell Louis XV chair with black, clear and white plastic injection-molded polycarbonate.

If the modern twist on a classic wasn’t cool enough, this little beauty is scratchproof and weather-resistant, so it can be used both indoors and outdoors as commercial or residential decor. And because it’s the “ghost” armchair, it fits with nearly every color scheme, design aesthetic and season-making it the most versatile designer twist ever.

Clearly. 

The desert is rough, hot and dark, which means one thing for it’s inhabitants.  

Daily showers (and numerous blow-dries), A/C cranked to it’s breaking point 7 months per year, and hours upon hours spent in cool, light-filled homes, watching LOST.  As if our power bills weren’t ridiculous enough, now we’ll have to turn on our furniture.

Lee Broom, the ultimate in quirky luxury, has created these amazing French-inspired fluorescent bulb-adorned furniture and accessories, which we’re willing to shell out extra monthly electricity cash for. Offering incredible nightstands, mirrors, chairs, lounges and more, this English designer has crowds of chic customers completely, well, turned on.
