In Japan, you run the risk of being ostracized by society at large if your cell phone isn't adorned with at least a few kilograms of beads, charms and trinkets. Here's a photo I took of a girl on the subway using one of the gaudier such phones, complete with a heart-shaped mirror and some frilly lingerie-like lace along the edges.
Here are some similarly bejeweled phones I saw for sale. Notice that the trinket hanging from one of the phones is itself a miniature phone, also encrusted with beads.

So what do the men's phones look like?
Love the hat photo, BTW
Great eyes!
How much are these? I want one! CUTE!
That's very recursive with the phone accessory for your phone. Is it possible to hang a phone accessory from your phone accessory (and so forth)?
does this make the phone hard to hold up to your ear? perhaps that's an ancient practice and text messaging is the prefered communication
