Bedazzle, remember that young women used their bedazzle cell phones? The trend seems to be over, but on the streets of London, a 21 year old socialite has discovered a new manner to show her Paris in her, by covering her Mercedes Benz with a million Swarovski crystals.
The Russian business student, Daria Radionova, told in an interview Daily Mail, that the people who covered the 2011 Mercedes CLS 350 in crystals, from the handles, door, to the Mercedes badges, all came from Russia and worked for two months, 12 hrs a day. It caused quite the stir when she parked her car outside the Levin Hotel in Knightsbridge on Monday.
The Benz CLS, with BAII BYY license plate, came truly alive when night turned into day, with the glistening light of London, off the Merc's fancy body. There are no words can explain how much the socialite spent on her car's transformation, it is reported that she spent $33,000 worth of swarovski crystals, but the business student did take it against theMail the she only paid $41,000 or £25,000 for the car, shouting out on her Facebook page that the car's worth is more than 25 UK pound. The new found fame of the crystal-encrusted Mercedes, is sure to be valuable more than that now, and if the socialite ever wanted to sell the car, she said all profits will be given to charity. Although, for now it seems she will just have fun with her fancy car, according to her Facebook post, "If you have the cash, why not do it?"
A glass-covered Mercedes makes a far bigger statement than bedazzled iPhone, and a bigger cut out of the owner's wallet. Other Swarovski crystals covered Mercedes Benz is the SL600, covered with 300,000 crystals, done by a car accessory company named Garson, specializes in making crystal accessories for people who wants more glamour.
