Mirror Cell Phone Charm: Love It or Leave It?
I stumbled on this mirror cell phone charm at one of my favorite Japanese discount stores a few weeks ago and still can't get over how cute and funny it is. It reminds me of the Nintendo DM cell charm (yes, you read right "DM charm") a friend of mine picked up for me in Korea last year.
I love that it's kitschy and geeky, but slightly Victorian and whimsical.
Jewelry Trinkets For Your Cell Phone
Considering these rhinestone encrusted cell phone charms were found on the Japanese StrapYa site, which I can't translate for the life of me, I'm going to take a wild guess and assume that they are affordable accessories for blinging out your phone in style. The plush fonies weren't sophisticated enough for my liking, so these are a step in the right direction. Scroll down to check out a bunch of other unique designs.
Fonies Are Anything But Phoney
Meet the Fonies: Bart, Englebert, Manuel, Otto and Pedro. These plush and squishy cell phone charms are guaranteed to add some unique flair to your phone. Use them for sheer cuteness or put these critters to use and give your screen a good wipe—getting rid of all those nasty finger prints!
Drunken Business Man Charm: Love it Or Leave It?
The "Oyjai" cell phone charm has been a hit with Strapya readers for a while, but I didn't truly understand the wonder of it until l I saw it in the flesh. Like the Nintendo DM Cell Charm this novelty charm comes straight to geeksugar from Japan via reader chuger. My translation expert tells me that "Oyjai" means "old man," which helps explain the charms online ad: "Have you ever experienced 'Friday night' in shinbashi, Japan?
Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Nintendo "DM" Cell Charm
If you're a hardcore Nintendo follower you have probably already feasted your eyes on the DS Cell Phone Charm, but for the rest of you here's a geeky - albeit girly - treat. When our resident tech spy wasn't snapping photos of LG ads in Korea and Japan, he managed to pick me up this adorable "Nintendo DM Lite" cell phone charm. Instead of the double LED screens it sports a "Dobble Mirror" so you can check and make sure your lip gloss is popping before making a call.
Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Pepsi Cell Phone Bling
There are some cell phone charms that can be perceived as semi-useful flair. Take for instance the Hello Kitty privacy sticker, which protects your screen from nosy co-workers and friends, or the Nevermissacall charm that lights up when your phone rings inside your purse. Of course, there are others, like the cell phone cuff, which serves little purpose other than decoration and their ability to catalyst conversations.
Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Leather Cell Necklace/Strap
I know I have made fun of David Beckham, Courteney Cox and Joel Madden for using dorky belt clips to hold their BlackBerries, but there are some acceptable ways to carry your cell phone on your person without looking like the geeky copy guy. While I'd prefer them to be slimmer, I can't find anything terribly offensive about these leather cell necklaces from Strapya World. They come in a variety of colors and would free up your hands and pockets of your cell, while keeping it near.
Hello Kitty Privacy Sticker For Your Cell Phone
Worried about Jimmy learning you sent a saucy text about him to Tara? Does your boss walk by your desk and hover over your smartphone? If you answered yes to either of those questions, and you lust after Hello Kitty items, you are in luck.
Kitschy Missy Broome Cell Phone And iPod Charms
The Miss Broome cell phone and iPod charms bring kitschy fun back to protecting your gadgets sans Hello Kitty, glitter or feathers.

They each cost $30 and are 5-inches high and 3 inches wide.
Absent Minded? Decorate Your Cell With A Cuff
If you've lost your cell phone before you're not alone. In fact, an estimated 600,000 cell phones will be reported lost or stolen this year. If that phone ends up in someone else's hands, you open yourself up to identity theft, a massive bill and if you happen to be Lindsay Lohan, some serious gossip.
