Who says only men handle cameras best? Times change and our favorite camera too has changed hands. Women around the world are going clickety-click and its time to give our lady shooter a treat. Following the growing bling culture, camera manufacturing company Pentax asked design agency ‘Bling My Thing’ to jazz up the recently launched Pentax K-m DSLR camera a bit. Encrust with Swarovski crystals and patterned in red and white elegantly signifies the made-for-women tag.
Giving the uber-professional and less user-friendly cameras a makeover, this Pentax K-m DSLR is much simplified in an easy-to-manoeuvre compact body with user-friendly operations. The price of this ornamental camera is yet to be disclosed, but does that stop the ladies to gear up before they hit the stall. A definite No!

Recession does not quite seem to be a word the decadent ones recognize with. While most of the world is busy fighting for the basic needs of life, these bunch full splurge and how. Some are just born lucky not to worry about money be it during the Great Depression or any other recession for that matter. And there are enough smart designers to rake it in from them. When we go ahead and purchase expensive products only the rich get richer. The famous designer Francis Hooper intends to do just that saying his collections at the Air New Zealand Fashion Week were inspired to make women spend more on luxury items.
The best of the lot had to be the hand-sewn Swarovski crystals in a collection named “There is No Depression” costing around a whopping $33,000 and must help you ease of the burden off your bank accounts. It’s no wonder couture outfits like these after making an appearance or two on the ramp and fashion news remain pretty much unused in the collector’s wardrobe.

It has been a known fact that human beings have been trying to reconcile with the phenomenon of life and death for ages. The desire to be immortal has led to many new inventions in the field of science and technology. Artists deal with this trauma in an entirely new form- by creating a piece of work that remains immortal even after they are no more. Swarovski designer Quinn Gregory has decided to fight with his destiny by creating a rare piece of art that he wants to be remembered for. He came up with the idea of making Swarovski-studded skulls when he was diagnosed with a fatal heart disease. So, he turned to this art to deal with the realities of death and the inexpressible aura surrounding it.
Perhaps he was taking inspiration from Yeats who wrote about the golden immortal bird. Gregory has taken a hollow skull of a woman and given artistic life to an inanimate skull.

Luxury is not a new word to the world of gaming. The purpose of bling is to add glamour to the routine and dry forms of Table football, or Foosball. Realizing this BlingMyThing has taken an initiative to make you think and rethink, hence addressing the need for a blingy lifestyle. Now, they may not be presumed to be installed in a plush sports bars and dirty basements, but may also carve their space at your abode, giving you another reason to flaunt. The Crystallized Foosball Table is surely set to swerve off the mood of the elite gentry. I wonder if the rules of the game would remain same or bling goes ahead in revising them as well. The details about table football would be available on need and enquiry basis as no details are publicly available as yet.
