Pink Rhinestone-Encrusted BlackBerry Cases Still Exist

I've spotted several especially blinged-out iPhone cases in the past and just found an equally sparkly case for the BlackBerry Curve. The pink rhinestone-encrusted case ($14) is a shiny, two-piece, snap-on hard case covered in rhinestones. I've said before that a fully rhinestone-covered case is a little much for my taste, but I do l love checking out some of these crazy artistic and blinged-out Read more

Purple Rhinestone iPhone Case

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? Do you have a totally tricked-out Read more

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 Read more

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. Maybe not as bling as the Louis Vuitton charm but much more practical and user-friendly than the cell phone cuffs! Priced at $10. Read more

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 Read more
