Tech accessories trend cool, part 1

From purses made from newspaper to show your ‘tree-hugger’ side to sneakers with skulls on them to show your ‘edge,’ there seems to be a way for everyone to express themselves through style. Well, what about us tech-geeks who just can’t get enough of computer chips and USBs?

Hey, I’m Ashley DiFranza on special assignment today for Amber, reporting on the current trend of geek-chic tech jewelry. It has really blown up -- from clever earrings to bracelets wound from cables, there is a lot more out there then you’d think.

Just like the bead to a bracelet, your clicky keyboard keys are the most commonly used product in tech jewelry, spelling out funny things or even just representing the frequently used DELETE and SHIFT. This site features a great selection to deck out the hippest of your keyboard clan, including rings with keys in place of jewels, bracelets made from computer keys strung between beads -- even a little robot-man crafted from the key and spare chain (my favorite one and absolutely adorable!) – and necklaces that spell out names or hobbies.

Keys not really your thing? This bracelet wound from computer cables has a mix of color and textures and it really adds a personality; and these , code earnings are amusing and a good way to remember to close your tags. Earrings made from microchips look so fashionable with their many colors and crossed wires, and they can even come with a matching necklace.

For all you guys outs there looking to accessorize, cufflinks made from microchips are a popular piece of jewelry for the everyday computer geek . In many different versions, this trendy idea can come in many different styles, colors and shapes. Also, this phone card bracelet, made completely of tech pieces, with the phone card itself and a wire band, is very stylish and very chic.

With all this new technological jewelry, all you tech-geeks -- even those of you currently in hiding -- have a way to show everyone who they are with just a simple accessory. Now that’s what I call technological progress!

Stay tuned for part 2 of my look into tech jewelry!
