Geeky girls can also be extremely stylish when they wear necklace pen drives for a bit of flash drive sparkle wherever they go.

This glamorous gadget is completely encrusted with [silver rhinestones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clearblue-crystals) and hung off of a delicate chain to make for an [exquisite piece of jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mademoiselle-jules) that no one would even suspect is actually a memory stick. I can picture any of the James Bond femme fatales wearing this sparkly pendant with a glamorous cocktail dress in order to secretly transfer important files and documents. This device is also convenient for ladies who need to carry around a USB stick but don't want to be weighed down with extra bulk in their pockets or bags.

Glitzy necklace pen drives are must-have accessories for high-tech chicks.
