"  I have a confession to make that feels like a betrayal of Sex and The City, All The Single Ladies and the overall archetype of go-getting, career-focused, dateless metropolitan women: Vibrators don&amp;#039;t really do it for me. It might just be that I picked the wrong vibrator the same way I pick the wrong guys: Yes, that weird, niche Five-Headed Rainbow Clit Tickler Supreme or whatever may better suit my personal sexual foibles, but I opted instead for the best-selling option \u2013 a blue, vaguely penis-shaped thing made of hard plastic. After a few disappointing tries, eventually (SAD GIRL ALERT) I took out the batteries and put them in my Swiffer Wet Jet. (I told you.) So when I got the chance to test out two new sex toys from Crave, a jewelry-slash-sex toy line by San Francisco luxury designer Ti Chang (a woman designing sex toys for women, yay!) I was pretty damn excited, especially since the products are so sleek and lovely. Chang states on her website: &amp;quot;While we have beautifully designed iPhones and laptops, the sex-toy space is so heavily stigmatized that it doesn&amp;#039;t draw a lot of talent.&amp;quot; While I am as single as one can possibly be \u2013 unless you count Frasier reruns, a cat and various Seamless delivery guys as significant others \u2013 I have a Person On Hand to help me fulfill this sort of assigned sexperiment, because I&amp;#039;m utilitarian and a professional, and it&amp;#039;s weird to ask people you&amp;#039;re actually romantically interested in to do this stuff early on. And also it&amp;#039;s awesome when you have an excuse to ask a hot people to casually bang you &amp;quot;for work.&amp;quot; Person and I got a drink in Brooklyn and I wore The Droplet, a 43-inch stainless-steel necklace that will retail at around $100 and can be slipped underneath clothes for so-called &amp;quot;discreet play,&amp;quot; and a pair of handcuffs that double as a bracelet. Incidentally, they look cool as hell on, and not at all like you&amp;#039;re wearing a vibrator around your neck \u2013 Person even said he liked it. Well played, Crave. Okay, so we left the bar, and without going into too much NSFW detail here, DUDE, The Droplet is great when you take it off your neck and use it on yourself. It&amp;#039;s so small and dense, like a little bullet, and has a wide variety of intensity settings on the vibration \u2013 since it&amp;#039;s so much less bulky than most vibrators, there&amp;#039;s a lot more finesse, and it&amp;#039;s\u2014yeah. It&amp;#039;s great.  However, using it with a partner is a little trickier, at least with me and Person, who is basically a giant (6&amp;#039;4&amp;quot;) and has huge man-hands that were a little fumbly with the delicate Droplet. Still good for those lazy unproductive Sundays in bed alone, though! The handcuffs were neat, too, although both Person and I noticed that the chain between them could have stood to be a little longer - just to allow the chained-up person a slightly wider range of movement and not get wrist-crampy. Chang emailed me to inform me that they&amp;#039;re meant to be &amp;quot;play cuffs,&amp;quot; not used for intense restraint. It&amp;#039;s cool that they&amp;#039;re a medium level of bondage intensity, for couples who have grown out of scarves and ties but aren&amp;#039;t ready to move to real handcuffs (or, if you-like I-read Stephen King&amp;#039;s Gerald&amp;#039;s Game at an impressionable age and now will NEVER be ready).  In conclusion, if you like your Rabbit and lipstick vibe just fine, that&amp;#039;s great. But if you&amp;#039;re into sex toys that are streamlined and sleek and even wearable, Crave&amp;#039;s for you.
