Apparently the designer Casadei is not exactly known for being restrained. These multi-colored shoes are part of the Casadei Crystal Lovers Limited Edition collection, and they cost $9,452.50!
These heels are covered with multicolored Swarovski crystals, which are a trend going strong in Milan. In general, the shoes in Milan are full of bling, showy and super high-heeled.
You can also see more Swarovski crystal clothing and accessories fantasies at LuisaViaRoma.
You can find more Casadei shoes at Endless and at Forzieri.
Again, if you don’t have $10,000 to spend on shoes, you can always get a cheap pair of shoes and Swarovski Crystallize them just by gluing the Flat Backs No Hotfix yourself!
What’s an award show these days with a SWAROVSKI crystallized stage? It really is amazing how beautiful these crystals look not just on electronics, bath toys, toilets, etc. They really can offer a unique decor experience for stages, restaurants, stores, and even your home.
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — The Golden Globes ceremony will be even more glittery this year.
Apart from all the stars lighting up the room, the new set at the Beverly Hilton Hotel’s International Ballroom will shine with 30,000 Swarovski crystals.
Dick Clark Productions, which is producing the Globes, says some 3,000 pounds of crystals were flown in from Austria for Sunday’s ceremony.
Production designer Brian Stonestreet says the crystal-encrusted set design was inspired by the ballroom’s signature chandeliers, and the sparklers won’t be confined to the stage. His crystal creations will also hang overhead, making for “a 360-degree experience,” he says, adding, “the room is actually the set, which is perfect for this show.”
The 68th annual Golden Globe Awards will be presented Sunday and broadcast live on NBC. Can’t Wait!
If the traditional rubber duckie isn’t making your bath time that luxurious, then feast your soapy eyes on the Swarovski rubber duck. The duck is encrusted with 5,000 crystals, Pave’d with flat backs to make your bath that much more glamorous.
Not sure if the Swarovski rubber duck floats, but for that hefty price, the crystallized bath toy is sure to float your credit card to its maximum. So treat yourself next time you take a bath and enjoy some blinged-out company.
I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t recommend you do-it-yourself! You can apply Swarovski Flat Backs (No Hot Fix) with glue to any kind of plastic or rubber. You can also easily apply Swarovski Flat backs with Hot Fix to any kind of Textile with heat.
Merchants Overseas has some great color guides containing all of the SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS colors that are available. It looks like Mr. Ducky might need to be crystallized with “Citrine” for the body and “Light Siam” for those huge red lips!!
Each year, millions of eyes from all over the world are focused on the sparkling Waterford Crystal Times Square New Year’s Eve Ball. At 11:59 p.m., the Ball begins its descent as millions of voices unite to count down the final seconds of the year, and celebrate the beginning of a new year full of hopes, challenges, changes and dreams.
ABOUT The New Year’s Eve Ball:
The Ball is a geodesic sphere, 12 feet in diameter and weighing 11, 875 pounds, built to withstand the stresses of high winds, precipitation and temperature fluctuation to brightly shine over 400 feet above Times Square throughout the year.
For 2011, Waterford Crystal has designed 288 new “Let There Be Love” crystal triangles featuring a romantic pattern that blends a modern cascade of hearts with diamond cutting. 288 triangles are emblazoned with last year’s “Let There Be Courage” design of a ribbon medal defining the triumph of courage over adversity; and 1,152 triangles sparkle with the “Let There Be Joy” design of an angel with arms uplifted welcoming the New Year. The remaining 960 triangles are the original “Let There Be Light” design of a stylized radiating sunburst. The 2,688 crystal triangles are bolted to 672 LED modules which are attached to the aluminum frame of the Ball. The Ball is illuminated by 32,256 Philips Luxeon Rebel LEDs (light emitting diodes). Each LED module contains 48 Philips LEDs – 12 red, 12 blue, 12 green, and 12 white for a total of 8,064 of each color. By mixing these four colors, the Ball is capable of creating a palette of more than 16 million vibrant colors and billions of patterns producing a spectacular kaleidoscope effect atop One Times Square.
How Exciting! I say the more colors the better! I can’t believe they aren’t scared to “drop” a huge ball made of CRYSTAL though!
