feminine technology - comeback?

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!! 

what do you guys think?

to remember all the good times, here are some inspo pictures <33 :')))

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?


i think that maybe the lack of phone decor has something to do with how often people tend to get them replaced. theyre manufactured to become obsolete within a few years, which SUCKS and so im buying a fliphone once my smartphone rly hits the shit.

(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 >_<
