Adding to your list of bling accessories is Hello Kitty Bike bejeweled with precious Swarovski crystals. It was a shock to me when I came to know that a Hello Kitty fanatic has taken the pain of decorating her Hello Kitty bike with around 50,000 Swarovski crystals. This gives it the honor to be the blingest bike available on this earth.

This is a question to the all those who claims to fall in the category of elite class and spend outrageously to fulfill their desires. Is it for sale? Or can we expect Hello Kitty to produce one such creation? Take a look at the video below and for a deeper view peep into the thumbnails, a part of our gallery.

When it comes to engagement rings or wedding bands, people don’t like the idea of cutting down on cost looking for another economical accessory as their ready excuse is it comes only once. That doesn’t mean that you have to plunk down more than you can afford, it just means that you have to know all your options and keep to a budget to keep from going broke before the wedding is scheduled.

Some ways to reduce the expense of the engagement rings and wedding bands is to examine multiple choices for the setting and the stone. Cut, color, clarity, and carat will determine how much you spend on a diamond. By tweaking these variables in online virtual ring creators, you can get a good idea of just exactly how much your money will buy.

In addition, the setting will also affect the cost. Platinum is the most expensive metal to get, but the color is popular. You don’t have to buy platinum settings to have a silver color, though. You can easily change that option to white gold, palladium, or platinum alloys. This can have a dramatic impact on the price without sacrificing the vision of your perfect wedding band or engagement ring. Every choice you make will impact the price, but may not impact the look as much. So, if you have a specific look you are going for then you may want to investigate all your options. You would probably be pleasantly surprised at the number of options out there for every budget.

Who says CES 2008 is all about hard-core technology and gadgets? Well it does but with a difference. The blend of valuable metals or luxurious stones aims at enriching the luxury bar of a doodad. One such technique is practiced by MSI who have enhanced its PR200 Crystal Collection. Flaunting at CES 2008, the collection includes a crystal-festooned rim with a layer of pearl white sheen, making this laptop the star attraction. Featuring a 12.1″ TFT WXGA display, fingerprint reader, a 4-in-1 card reader, and built-in 1.3 mega pixel web cam; it works on an Intel Core 2 Duo processor.

Taking home this PR200 Crystal collection would supplement you with peripherals viz. two different-sized leather cases, crystal-studded 1GB flash drive, battery charger and pearl white-colored. Each laptop comes along with a 6-cell and 8-cell lithium-ion battery. If owing luxury is what you are focused upon, then this laptop doesn’t require any second thought.

The very mention of “bling bling” summons imagery of anything garish and away from the ordinary falling into the bejeweled category. Considering this, I think the tag of Bling Bling doesn’t suit to the tote featured above. Undoubtedly, it is an elite handbag clad with glittering surface inviting eyeballs.

Noticeably vintage-inspired, the material of this metal-frame tote is shaped from connected Crystals, designing an open interlace of trinkets over the hoary lining. Additional crystals spot the handle and the clutch is bejeweled with a set of large Swarovski Crystal intonation.

After getting a realistic experience of the gold plated toilet demanding a confounding 250,000 Euros, all our eyes were on swarovski crystal studded toilet. And here it is busy anchoring an elegant commode’s 50,000 handset Swarovski crystals from the Isis collection designed by Jemal Wright of Hollywood, Florida. The creation can be seen as another value addition to the portfolio of the same maker who delivered chrome-plated toilet for its filthy-rich customers.

The iced-out flashy toilet is embedded with swarvoski crystals. The artist also offers identical sink eyeing all prospective yet proud owner. Sooner, you can complete your kit as the artist to offer an ice-encrusted double slipper tub by spring of 2008. FYI, featured above this toilet bathed in swarovski demands a biting sum of $75,000 and got one deserving owner as well.
