Wearable Tech: LED Eyelashes



A commenter on the facebook page asked me to elaborate on the cover photo we are currently using on the fan page's timeline, so here it goes:

The LED Eyelashes, created by Soomi Park, were designed somewhere before 2010. The LED eyelashes were introoduced as "a product that speaks to many Asian women's desire for bigger eyes".
The eyelashes are controlled by a tilt sensor, allowing you to control the lights by tilting your head.
Electronics are stored in a set of headphones.

Question time:
If technology allows these LED eyelashes to be elegantly designed, would this take flight in modern fashion, in your opinion?

Tech Jewelry: Transformer ring

Have you ever tried using a headset with your phone? If you have, you've known the irritation of when you accidently got something stuck in the wiring and the headphones just pop out. That's why the experienced headset user made the switch to a wireless bluetooth unit.

Bluetooth headsets are neat little things that keep the wires away, but stop me if this doesn't sound familiar:
They're ugly.
To make a long text short I recently stumbled upon this headset, which with a gentle twist transforms into a beautiful little ring or vice versa. It's old news from 2009, but I think this is what headsets should aim to be like: Versatile and simple.
