Clay, sorry to upset you on this but bling bling means expensive and over the top. If you wear all your expsenive jewllery at once and then some you are bling bling.
Of if you put on all your designer labels at once and your jewllery then you are bling bling. Of course - this would require you to have more than one deigner label or piece of jewllery to wear. It started off as meaning expensive and good taste now it is tacky in such as Oh, you've got a diamond the size of a small african state which would feed a major 3rd world country - that's so bling bling. Jennifer Lopez is often refered to as bling bling and here in the UK Posh and Becks are bling bling - I've just had a word with Joe, who I work with and who knows (he's a DJ and very hip) and he said it's just simply that bling bling proves that money can't buy taste. However, there is always an exception to the rule in that in some people they are post ironic bling bling - in that they dress bling bling but that they are actually taking the mickey out of it. Ok, so you are all now confused.

The other evening as I passed through the family room, I caught a tidbit from the late-night show my DH was watching. A very successful entertainer was explaining the expression, "Bling Bling", which is apparently something he say a lot or which appears in his music. I've heard young people say "bling bling", and think it's a catchy phrase! According to the entertainer, it means expensive, beautiful, highly desirable... I just read something on the lace list from Sulochona about what she is BLing now... and thought of the slang expression!! How absolutely appropriate!! Yes, our lace is bling bling!
