Whoa, Talk About Cell Phone Bling!
I'm all for a little glitz and glam, but I think that this Rhinestones For My iPhone case ($20) might take the cake for most blinged-out iPhone case I've seen. Honestly, it's a little too adorned for my taste, but there's at least one upside: finding your phone in a jam-packed purse just got a little easier.
Have you seen any outrageous cell phone bling lately?

Moment of Geek: Crystallized iPhone
Thanks to TeamSugar user sunny_and72 (aka Kellie DeFries) for sending us this fabulous and blingin' iPhone. As chief designer for Bling My Thing, Kellie created this design for the iPhone called "Rainbow Boogie," which does in fact come in a rainbow of colors! I wonder how long it takes to create such a sparkley masterpiece?
Jewelry Trinkets For Your Cell Phone
Considering these rhinestone encrusted cell phone charms were found on the Japanese StrapYa site, which I can't translate for the life of me, I'm going to take a wild guess and assume that they are affordable accessories for blinging out your phone in style. The plush fonies weren't sophisticated enough for my liking, so these are a step in the right direction. Scroll down to check out a bunch of other unique designs.
MicroSD Card Cell Phone/Camera Strap
I can't say I regularly tote around miniSD cards, but if this fun holder could carry a USB stick, I'd be all for it. These card eating straps which I saw on OhGizmo! can be attached to cell phones and cameras so you know exactly where your memory card is at all times.
Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Pepsi Cell Phone Bling
There are some cell phone charms that can be perceived as semi-useful flair. Take for instance the Hello Kitty privacy sticker, which protects your screen from nosy co-workers and friends, or the Nevermissacall charm that lights up when your phone rings inside your purse. Of course, there are others, like the cell phone cuff, which serves little purpose other than decoration and their ability to catalyst conversations.
Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Leather Cell Necklace/Strap
I know I have made fun of David Beckham, Courteney Cox and Joel Madden for using dorky belt clips to hold their BlackBerries, but there are some acceptable ways to carry your cell phone on your person without looking like the geeky copy guy. While I'd prefer them to be slimmer, I can't find anything terribly offensive about these leather cell necklaces from Strapya World. They come in a variety of colors and would free up your hands and pockets of your cell, while keeping it near.

Kitschy Missy Broome Cell Phone And iPod Charms
The Miss Broome cell phone and iPod charms bring kitschy fun back to protecting your gadgets sans Hello Kitty, glitter or feathers. The line, which touts a marine and rock-inspired theme and is adorned by buttons and youthful embroidery, is made up of characters like "Two Sloops," "Captain Shivers," "Howdi-Culture," "Howd-Oui," and "Road Howdy," and seem to have a youthful Betsey Johnson influence. They each cost $30 and are 5-inches high and 3 inches wide.
Absent Minded? Decorate Your Cell With A Cuff
If you've lost your cell phone before you're not alone. In fact, an estimated 600,000 cell phones will be reported lost or stolen this year. If that phone ends up in someone else's hands, you open yourself up to identity theft, a massive bill and if you happen to be Lindsay Lohan, some serious gossip.
