Important for listening to your electronic in public, you'll need a pair of headphones or earbuds. Some people prefer one or the other, depending on comfort (I can never really get a set of earbuds to fit into my ear correctly) or hairstyle (maybe you don't want to crush your giant curls, as if the headphone band would fit over it anyway!)

In the earbud category, crystals and decorations rule the roost. Target currently has these jeweled Hello Kitty earbuds for only $14.99. Miss Lumpy has a set and they seem to have fairly good fit and quality. Or you can get these heart-shaped and crystaled ones from Amazon.com. I bought these same earbuds in lilac from Forever Love a while back, and they seem to be fairly sturdy. Here are a few more options for buying the product - I didn't pay very much for mine at all (maybe $8?) so you can see that the price does fluctuate. Make sure to shop around!


Or there are the headphones. When I look for comfort, this is my first place - something big and squashy with a social 'Do Not Disturb' sign built in. Recently a friend of mine posted this very cute street snap of a girl with star cut-out headphones. Lucky for us, you can buy the exact same pair on YesAsia! I like how they blend futuristic, clean-cut, and cute into a great electronic. Hmm, I wonder what she hears as she gazes into the distance? Sort of a mysterious feeling, isn't it?

And of course there is the infamous Swimmer headphone series. Swimmer is a cute Japanese brand that has mingled its way over in the lolita crowd. Typically they release four to six designs of headphones in a batch. I have a pair of pink ones with white kitties on them! They even have a joint in the middle and collapse smaller for travel. I am slightly disappointed that there is a rattle in one ear however, which leads me to believe that something is loose. I got mine from Pretty Graffitti, who now also carries a bow-shaped Swimmer earbud as well!

Or if you want something more minimalistic and touted for its quality, try skullcandy. You can see the super fuschia and white 'low rider' '08 model on their website here.

And then there is one more teeny accessory I can't resist sharing, especially since it operates with your headphones. In case you couldn't 'light up your eyes' enough, you can now have LED false eyelashes. They get their power from the headphones and whatever electronic device you're wearing, and are motion-activated. They remind me of a neon light, with the figure's eyes winking in the darkness. They're pretty out there, but could be cute for clubbing, a photoshoot, or anything Candyfuture.
