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?
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).
Yubz Gets Fancy With a Crystal Covered Bluetooth Handset
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.
iPod Holster Is a Little Glam, a Little Garish
If I were a rich girl, then this iLuv iPod Holster $60 could be mine.
Would I buy it though? In its gold glory, it's kind of a fun display of empty excess, but I don't know if that's really my MO.
Ed Hardy Teams Up With Palm to Make Blinged-Out Gadgets!
Ah, the life of a presenter at the 2008 Emmy Awards! In this year's presenters gift lounge, Palm and Ed Hardy teamed up to design custom-bejeweled Palm Centro smartphones and Plantronics Bluetooth Headsets, which were available for presenters and performers at the awards show.

Maria Serves up Diamond-Encrusted Cameras by Canon
Tennis star Maria Sharapova is quite the busy gal. Already one of the faces of Canon's PowerShot cameras, she now lends herself to a line of new cameras — the limited edition Canon Powershot Diamond Collection cameras.
To kick off the new collection, Canon is giving away five diamond-studded PowerShot SD1100 cameras (find contest on right side of the page) which feature 88 white diamonds totaling 2.22 carats each around the lens.
Molly Sims Geeks Out With Her Decorated DS
I spy with my little eye, something shiny and sparkly! In this week's issue of Life & Style, Molly Sims was caught showing off her bling'd out white Nintendo DS (one of my favorite portable devices ever) at a recent event. We're giving away our own white DS, but lucky Molly has had hers covered with black and pink crystals in the shape of a sexy pump.
The Bag That Kept Carrie's Phone in Hiding
Who would have thought that this exact (but in pink!) Judith Leiber cupcake evening bag would have such a significant role in the
Sex and The City movie.
First of all, Charlotte's adorable Lily answers Carrie's Swarovski crystal encrusted phone and puts it in this bag and then walks off with it. And then Big keeps trying to call Carrie, but her phone is held captive in this cupcake — therefore I'm blaming their (spoiler alert!) failed wedding round one on this jewel-encrusted $4295 bag.
Bling'd Out Style From Japan
Straight from the HQ of all things awesome (Japan if you don't know), comes these totally bling'd out headphones from +D Style and Amateur Meister. We've seen crystal studded headphones before, but these designs are more my style. Thankfully, I have an insider that knows Japanese, so I can tell you that these babies are not only super stylish, but super expensive to boot.
Cell Phones Protected by Crystals and Glitter
I knew I had my fill of pink gadgets when I was cruising around CES a couple of weeks ago, but who knew I'd see so many bedazzled cell phone cases!
The following cases are a far cry from Case-Mate's diamond encrusted iPhone case, but they are inexpensive and fit on a variety of cell phone models. Some are covered with glitter while others, like the BlackBerry Pearl case, have crystals surrounding the screen area.
