i don't know about you guys but i just can't stop daydreaming about feminine technology. why don't we use 99s-00s digital cameras for pictures, selfies, and videos anymore? the way we used to decorate these canon cameras, old laptops, ipods, computers, flip phones was insane but in the best way possible. it was unique and fun. to be honest it makes me quite mad that our flip phones used to look like hello kitty's puke and now it's just a regular ass shitty apple, samsung, etc phones with no personality whatsoever. a huge downgrade if you ask me. i think it's time to travel back in time and start expressing ourselves more through not-so-high-tech, stickers and glitter again!!

yooo i always used to want to put rhinestones on something but never got around to it... my dsi was probably gonna be the victim hehe
i feel like i do see cases like this around every once in a while,, moreso ones like the one picture with the chanel logo you posted and less with just rhinestones... i think that smth similar might be popular in lolita circles?
(also unrelated kinda but i used to have that hello kitty cd player in the third to last image :3)

You can actually BUY the old phones remanufactured and use them now. I’m so excited, I looked at so many different options, one was a side kick, another was a razor but they don’t really come cheap. Nokia actually remade their entire line though. Now I’ve got that banana phone that was popular in the 90s. But no one ever calls, and new cars have no CD player. so I just have to use my iPhone to text and play my music until someone makes it to where I can listen to my burnt CDs again!

i wanna buy a cute pearl pink digital camera this summer and decorate it with stickers and rhinestones and charms... it would be so fun ! and i totally agree, part of the reason for the decline is how obsolete everything becomes so quickly. i wish at the very least phone cases would be decorative; but they're so simple and boring now, and it you want good protection you have to sacrifice aesthetics. its so annoying

apple phones suck ass with the customization and color options, but ive seen alot of people be creative with their phones and decorating it in their own way through stickers, phone charms, cool cases etc ^_^ you should totally look into decoden cases if you want something more cuter and prettier. i love putting little charms on my phone especially of anime charas hehehe

Omg I think this is kind of coming back with putting pictures and stickers in phone cases, phone charms, wrist straps, ect. I could definetly see bedazzling phone cases, or even phones coming back again!

I think that a big reason that they decided to stop making hyper fem tech is because it's easier to create and produce very boring and sleek products. I want cute products so bad >_<

I replaced my iPhone 11 with a dumb phone. Its a japanese Sharp Aquos Keitei flip phone and honestly guys I can recommend this !!! Like for sure I still check my smart phone but when I'm outside I am so much freer and not permanently drawn to my phone and social media and all. I also have whatsapp and spotify on it. I sometimes get bored but then I'll just pull out a book or my nintendo ds. Trust me just DO IT. And the most important reasons of all its serving much more CUNT than modern tech <3
Since a few days I also use a cheap nikon coolpix L4 Digicam. So nostalgic.
You can get it from eBay.

I bought a cheap digital camera off temu with the intention of wanting the shitty camera quality to get that throwback look. I also am going to start adding rhinestones to things, but I don't want to make any big investments when it comes to phones because I really want to wait and see if they bring back the sidekick or something.
