If you've been jonesing for some bling to add atop your entertainment center, then you can rest a little easier tonight knowing that this blue Swarovski-studded Xbox 360 Kinect sensor of your dreams is about to become reality.

Hand-crafted and outfitted with over six thousand crystals, this fancy-pants sensor was commissioned by Microsoft for none other than Kylie Minogue for her upcoming Aphrodite: Les Folies European tour. Microsoft and Kylie Minogue an unlikely paring? I don't think so. You see, this piece will go quite well with the studded Lips mics we saw a while back. Plus, you can sing and dance along with Kylie in Dance Central. All you need now is a spotlight.

Juicy Couture just keeps churning out the hits! Between pink teddy bear speakers, a wireless keyboard, and a blinged-out mouse, Juicy's line of techy accessories is perfect for the over-the-top geek.

The Dazzle Speakers ($88) are no exception. The portable speakers are completely blinged-out and covered in rhinestones. They're made to work with any MP3 player or even your computer.

I've said before that these types of accessories aren't necessarily my style, though the rhinestones on these speakers are pretty awesome. What do you say?

Guess the Price Tag!

As soon as a new gadget hits the streets, you can pretty much guarantee that someone will bling it out with rhinestones, diamonds, or, in this case, crystals. The new (and quite stunning) CrystalRoc Samsung Galaxy Tab has been coated with 5,700 Swarovski crystals, upping the ante when it comes to the price tag. Can you guess how much?

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?

Gadgets With Bling: Love It or Leave It?

GeekSugar — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 09:30:13 PDT

Bling is back, baby! It wasn't too long ago that we revisited bling with the pink rhinestone-encrusted BlackBerry case (and I bought a blinged-out iPhone case for myself) but now there's a whole new batch of studded, crystal, and diamond covered gadgets for your purchasing pleasure. If you've got the cash flow that is. Check out these new gadgets with a bit of bling, and tell me if you love them, or would rather leave them behind with the polls on each slide!

Believe it: This Phone Costs $160,000

GeekSugar — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 09:30:58 PST

It's true. This Stuart Hughes-designed Nokia 8800 is bedazzled with 12 karats of pink diamonds (about 1,225 of them), and set with a massive three-karat center-cut diamond to act as a stand in for your directional pad. Not to mention that it's custom set with 83 grams of platinum veneers. Remember when I told you that rhinestone BlackBerry cases still exist? Well, this takes things to the next level for sure.

We've seen our fair share of bling on everything from cell phones to gaming consoles, so I can't really be surprised that a phone like this exists. For those of you with a few extra bills in your pocket, this Nokia Supreme is a steal for $160,000.

Blingy iPhone Case: Love It or Leave It?

I'm all for embellishments, but check out this decked-out iPod case. The Showstopper iPhone Case ($20) is covered in gold, brown, silver, and gold beads and is the latest in blinged-out accessories.

Are you in love, or is it a little too bedazzled?

Jeweled USB Bracelet: Love It or Leave It?

GeekSugar — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 15:45:37 PST

You can't misplace your USB stick if you're wearing it. This isn't the first bracelet with a built-in flash drive that I've seen, only the last one was made of rubber and would not exactly go with everything in your closet. This Jeweled USB Bracelet from Brando is light years flashier, with a bracelet in gold or silver, flanked by what I assume are rhinestones (being that it's just $33).

It's got 8GB of memory, and like I said, would be hard to misplace. It's on your wrist and screams BLING!

Would you sport this?
