In this era ruled by hip-hop street culture, the rule is: the blinger, the better. Hollywood stars and their music-industry counterparts often add sparkle to their looks by employing caps, T-shirts, accessories and even mobile phones adorned with glittering Swarovski crystals. If you want to follow in their glamorous footsteps, a pair of trainers from Foam Workshop in Causeway Bay could be the ticket. This store will add gleaming Swarovski crystals - in several different colours, sizes and patterns - to any footwear of your choice. Prices depend on the number of crystals used: to imbue the classic adidas three-stripe logo with some extra glitz, for example, costs about HK$600 a pair. Shop owner Cash Hung can also embellish T-shirts, caps and spectacles in similar fashion. So now there's no excuse for looking dull.

Foam Workshop is at shop 8, Ginza, 501 Jaffe Road, Causeway Bay, tel: 9029 3925.
