Famous Lovers: Hopelessly Devoted

She: Just a sweet Australian transplanted to a very American high school where everyone looks like they're thirty.
He: A hot-to-trot greaser who might be more sensitive then he lets on - and can dance the entire friggin' universe under the table. Oh Danny - you can't be everything to everyone.

Tell me about it, stud.

Flirt!

We collaborated with the incredible team at Ban.do to create this super flirty and sexy number that is equally adorable around your head, neck, or (my favorite) as a CORSAGE. Are you kidding me with how adorable you will look with a simple outfit and a HOT pink poofy flower on your wrist? Seriously. Bonus: comes in adorable packaging.

(As someone wise noted, these would be so slammin' on bridesmaids. Each one could wear it however she liked! And if you do that please send us pictures!)

Catbird Exclusive Ban.do Headband, $48

Cheap & Cheerful

We recently learned the expression "cheap and cheerful" from a lovely Australian customer. It means "costing little money but attractive, pleasant, or enjoyable". It inspired me to create this new section of the website which contains some of our favorite gifty, non-jewelry items - all under $50. You're welcome.

Valentine's Day Cards.

Four of our favorite Valentine's Day. Clockwise from top left: La Familia Green Card (i don't know why I love this card so much, but I do), Pearl & Marmalade, Foxy & Winston, Jezebel.

Come Sail Away.

Quick! Quick! Get thee to Leigh, a.k.a. Jezebel's, blog to enter to win a pair of these earrings. In the very unlikely event that you DON'T win -you can buy them here.

PSA

Dear fellas, word on the street is that a certain day near approaching is a popular day to ask your old ladies to get hitched. Have you shelled out all your clams at Main Drag Music or at Clem's?  Or do you just intend to wait til February 13th to think about a ring?  Either which way, Team Catbird is on your side.  We'll figure out a quick fix in a pinch.

Lucky you: we've got a whole bunch of John Derian on sale! This is a special situation- we went a little crazy with our last order from him, and we've got to make room in our diminutive shop for all his new (oldish) wares.
