You can trust Swarovski to go to any magnanimous lengths to come up with anything you can imagine, in its crystals.
After a line of interesting products for its 20th anniversary, the brand has unveiled, not a clutch purse or shoes, but a Corsage in Swarovski crystals. The figure hugging garment has been a rage ever since Sex and The City star Sarah Jessica Parker adorned it.
For those with that money to splash around, this one may be the ultimate wanna-grab thing around. The difference now though is that it looks stunning with the crystals avatar by Ukrainian designer Verlingieri Lesya. The new label she has created it for is by Lever couture. The designer is 26 years young and got her degree at Modedesigerin, in mid-2007. The young designer is known to create exquisite design and processes with high-quality material such as Jacob Swarovski Schlepfer substances. Her effort in detail shows in this material.
The strapless Swarovski studded corsage is enhanced with 41,000 Swarovski crystals for that grand appearance. It costs $10,000, which makes it perhaps the most expensive of such pieces in the world.

Innovative design, technique and precision have been the hallmark of Swarovski crystals for ages.
Swarovski has been around since 1895. But its innovation in design has touched heights in the last two decades.

Here is a simple but extremely elegant piece of accessory that you definitely have to carry on your next high-profile do. Dubbed the Versailles Box Clutch by Judith Leiber. Compliments assured! Measuring a comfortably small 3 3/4″H x 5 1/2″W x 2″D, this one is both lavish and classy enough to go with your evening dress.
The design pattern (as well as the name) has been borrowed from Versailles. The scroll motif is quite dominant and shamelessly showy but none’s gonna mind it!

Paris Hilton is the trademark babe in the luxury woods. In fact, her name sells so much that a TV blinging group has decided to dedicate their new TV to the hotel heiress. The claim is that they have decorated many LCD TVs before but their hottest innovation has been done n the strong Fuchsia crystals. The color is such a dominating force here that ‘meant for Paris Hilton’ seems to be a very natural thing.
We are told that this television was a surprise gift for th beautiful Hilton babe when she was in Germany recently. The makers think that the Fuchsia (rose is very school-girl sorts) and Jet combo works well for a grown-up gadget freak girl. The deep, bright shade of pink has a personality and character of its own.

Flip flops are the in thing this fashion season. Nothing new with that, they are so every summer for who wants to sweat in those sneakers or high heeled pumps! But what if we say that now you also have the option of Swarovski crystals lining the straps of your slippers? Deborah Evans has worked her magic wand to make this everyday footwear into a glam one with the famous crystal touch.
The crystal embellished footwear comes blinged with three lines of Swarovski crystals with Havaianas from Brazil as the base. And there are some cool fashionable options too. Resort is a 3/4-inch soled sandal available in not one or two but 13 colors. At $130, we thin it’s a neat deal. Then there is Metallic which is available in 5 colors at 3/4-inch soles at $98. The High Wedge is a 2 1/2-inch wedge sandal and comes in 4 basic color choices at $185.

Carl F. Bucherer is one of the most important watchmakers of the present generation. He has just created a masterpiece called the Alacria Royal which almost looks like a royal piece of jewellery. The watch can be worn by ladies and is opulent enough to make a princess carve for it.
It comes studded with precious stones like diamonds, blue and orange-colored sapphires, rubies and emeralds. Though Carl has used Indian themes on these watches as he claims, one must admit that they do look good. It is an interesting point to make that in India colours have significance but most people lack a good sense of fashion in that country.

If you thought Michael Jackson was too passé to come back ever in style, think again. That guy definitely knows how to be the king for he always has been the king of pop! In the This Is It gigs that he will have in London later, he is going to wear about 300,000 of these sparkling crystals to make the whole world gasp in wonder.
The crystals would be of fifty three different shapes and 40 different sizes and 27 different colours. The world of Swarovski and the big guys behind the company are responsible for this unbelievable splendour that he is going to wear for his concerts.

If you thought recession had any effect on the way people spent, you actually might be wrong. Luxury houses are busy launching products that would turn spendthrifts’ faces red. Such is the condition with no one really bothering about global economic meltdown and all that.
Grasso, the luxury company have launched cellphones for girly girls. These phones are called the Lady Diamond Collection. The Lady Gold is bright red and in blue comes the Ultramarine. These phones are a gift to femininity and celebrated womanhood and the elegance of being a female.

This one will give tough competition to the luxury door from Elvision that is embedded with a 17-inch LCD display. Well, those of you planning to do a touch up to your home decor (or not for one look at this one and you’d want to get rid of the pre-existent one), be pleased to know that there is a hot and sparkling door available in the market under the brand name of Olympus.
Frankly, we never thought that a door would have such high-class razzmatazz but as a matter of fact it does! The Olympus door is made in Murano glass and is covered with excellent quality leather. Adding the Midas touch are the gold and Swarovski crystals (well, these just had to sneak in anything going glam).

During a time when most automakers are trying their best to confront the credit crunch, Chevrolet seems to be the one brand least affected by the goings on in the rest of the world, and ditto for its latest creation Captiva. This special car is an ultra-blingy item that comes embellished with more than 150,000 pieces of Swarovski Crystals.
An endeavor taken up by BlingMyThing, who have this habit of giving a dose of glam to almost anything, the Chevrolet Captiva was unveiled at the recent Bangkok International Motor Show. We hear that each Swarovski ice has been added to the car one-by-one, a task that took the craftsmen a little over 300 hours. In fact, the glamorous accent to the gold Chevrolet logo with light Colorado topaz crystallized Swarovski elements was apparently the toughest task, but we must say, the effort shows!
