Expensive Tech Accessory Du Jour: Crystallized Earbud Covers

GeekSugar — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 14:45:03 PDT

Want to add a little bling to your headphones? Have an extra $100 burning a hole in your pocket? Then I have found the accessory for you! Check out these Crystallized Earphone Covers ($98), made from Swarovski crystals and the perfect size for decorating your iPod earbuds. The crystals come in both silver and pink and snap on easily.

To be fair, I'm not anti-earbud bling (remember that iPhone case I ordered?) - I just think that $98 is a little too much to pay for some sparkle, Swarovski or not. What do you think? Would you rock a pair of these on your earbuds?

Yubz Gets Fancy With a Crystal Covered Bluetooth Handset

GeekSugar — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 04:00:17 PST

Yubz, the experts in retro-esque Bluetooth handsets, have stepped up their game by showing off a limited edition Yubz Talk - which comes covered in 5,400 Swarovski crystals - at CES this past week. For only $1,800 you can pick up one of these exclusive handsets (out of twenty total). Or you can get the rock gold version for just $50, which in my opinion is just as bling.

Altec Lansing Swarovski Encrusted Earbuds: Love or Leave?

GeekSugar — Tue, 25 Mar 2008 17:10:05 PDT

I love checking out bedazzled gadget accessories, but I try to contain myself since I can never afford them! Thankfully Popgadget spotted these glittery earbuds that are only $28 on Amazon. And no, they aren't cheap and covered in fake rhinestones, but beautiful Swarovski "elements!" Not only that but they fit snugly, offering outside noise reduction and stellar sound quality at lower levels.

Because they are so inexpensive, I'd love to have a pair for days that I feel like a total princess and want to rock out in style - delicate and feminine style, that is. What do you think? Love them or leave them?

Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? LED Swarovski Crystal Lip Gloss

GeekSugar — Wed, 21 Feb 2007 08:00:17 PST

Never get caught in the dark again! Well at least caught in the dark without super glossy lips again. With go light on my lips lip gloss, you can put your gloss on anywhere with its built in LED technology and handy mirror. Each one is custom designed with your initials written in Swarovski Crystal on the side of the container. Chic or not, for $38 plus shipping and handling this gloss is a little too bling bling for my liking. Available colors include invisible, chili spice, popping pink, red carpet, and brown sugar baby.

Thanks in large part to this fashionable set of celebs, we've taken notice of a new way to layer up. This crew proves that the only thing cooler than a leather jacket may just be one topped with a furry vest.

Kate Moss, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Poppy Delevigne show off the look's casual capabilities, while Olivia Palermo and Mary-Kate Olsen outfit two dressier versions.

An early favorite among celebs who want to avoid the effects of cell phone radiation, the POP phone is getting dressed up for its next red carpet appearance. The Swarovski-studded crystal POP phone ($600), which hits virtual shelves later this month, is positively dripping in bling and comes in five colors - pink, black, red, purple, and silver. Though you may not have the celeb status to throw down for this expensive accessory, the good news, for anyone who is buying it, is that you're still protected from 99 percent of cell phone radiation exposure.
