Skinnydip: Gaudy Glamour

    I've been searching for the perfect iPhone case for months now! £2.99 rubber cases, from an eBayer somewhere in The Orient, just don't cut it (learned from experience). Finally, a company that has been popping up all over the high street offers a stylish substitute.

    Warning: Sickly-sweet fashion follows

    Skinnydip is a success-snowballing venture from London. Launched after a golden ticket from the BBC Dragons in 2010, its three founders certainly appear to be capitalising their appearance in the Den. Now selling the eclectic 'Bling' range of electronic accessories and clutch bags, Skinnydip marries bold colour and plastic rhinestones for undoubtable tackiness in the best way.

    Resembling costume jewellery disassembled and glued to sleeves and cases of popular electronic devices, these fabulous accessories are bound to get a reaction. I imagine it to be a challenge for one of these dastardly flamboyant pieces to go unnoticed in the club or, less glamorously; on the bus. Negative comments or ones of admiration would probably both be appreciated as these are definite attention seekers. It's lucky current fashion is encouraging such frivolity with bright synthetics and unashamed decorative excess. I'm a fan.




These faux fur accessories also scream
