Work just sent out an e-mail informing us that one of our employee perks is a 15% discount on Michael C. Fina. I don't anticipate taking advantage of this benefit in the near future, but I did poke around their website to see what's actually being sold and just how expensive everything is.
I got distracted by the following product description:
Vera Wang's dinnerware collection is inspired by the contemporary bride. Dishwasher safe, it is meant to be used every day.
I just found the juxtaposition of "contemporary bride" and "dishwasher safe" to be particularly amusing.





... hey!
What about the juxtaposition with "used every day?"
So far as the Vera Wang for a bridal registry goes, I think that registries are getting more posh in general.
When I flipped through a friend's online registry last week, I saw a _lot_ of Kate Spade and Vera Wang. Have fun fishing your designer flatware out of a dank, murky mikvah, that's all I have to say.
