"The newest trend in cell phone accessories is all about the bling-bling: Thousands of phones are being decorated with thousands of colorful Swarovski crystals by a Manhattan designer. NY Noir has sparkled the cell phones belonging to such celebrities as Reese Witherspoon's character in Legally Blond 2, Sarah Jessica Parker's character on Sex and the City, and real-life cell phone user Star Jones of the talk show The View.



Customizing your cell phone costs $220 for the whole phone and $110 for just the front. Noir requires customers to leave their phones for three weeks while its designers place each individual crystal on the phone by hand."

Hmm...my E200 or MPx200 covered in sparkly gems - nah, I'll pass.

My first post on SPT!

I think that looks really silly. I would rather cover my phone with maribou feathers, that would be really hardcore. Or if you wanted something sparkly, you could save around one hundred dollars and smear your phone with glue, and then dip it in those intense cookie sparkles. The ones that come in that crazy pink.

if you want real bling-bling then check out a Vertu [link] handset or 'luxury personal communication device' as they call it, i suppose at over US$30,000 for the Platinum finished phone you can call it whatever you like

nice touch is the Concierge button on the phone, press it and you are put through to a service that can deal with your every whim... well if you are spending that kind of cash on a phone your whims might need a 24hr concierge service
