| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. To this day, she has no idea what a "Lolita" is. |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs, a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs, bird, and cat, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs, a bird, and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

Check out these gorgeous earrings sent to me by Lo Zone reader and friend, Janeth Walker. (Yeah, that's me wearing them...that's my long neck.)
Jan is a part of the lovely book club I posted about a few weeks ago, Reading Group of Sisters and Friends, who hosted me to discuss my new book, Sex.Lies.Murder.Fame.
 But enough about me and my new book. Back to Jan. She's the one who flew in from South Carolina to surprise her book club when I visited with them. That's her there with the red arrows pointing at her.
 Aren't the earrings she sent lovely? They're made with dynamic crystals from Swarovski that change color according to the light.
They can appear to be light blue one moment and light violet the next. Gorgeous!! I love them. I lean towards earrings that hang, so these are just my type.
You guys should check out the incredible creations from her Bejeweled line of products. She's got a whole array of fantastic works of art that are sure to accentuate in the best way.
She can be reached at:

Smooches, Jan!!! You're the bomb!!!

i'm curious. would those earrings (being crystal) reflect the color of what you are wearing? i assume that the crystal is "clear", yes? and if you're wearing a "red" dress, would the dress' color be satuated into the crystal, making the crystal earring "red"? that would be cool for matching accessories for any color even white, which the crystal would be "clear", i guess....

Lance, I believe they stay in the blue-purple family. They're so lovely. I wore them with some jeans one day and the blue was so pronounced. Then I wore a lavender top with them, and I'll be damned if the earrings didn't look lavender too!!! Love 'em.

wear another colored blouse/shirt (red/orange/green) and see what happens.
