We love it when design and technology meet, and this time they meet in the form of a mobile phone. It's the [Sony](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sony-xperia-10-vii) Ericsson Z310, released especially for the festive season, with a brand new, eye-catching look. The colourful outfit was designed by Agatha Ruiz de la Prada. And even though my eyes are normally totally blind to phones, this one is so pretty, I can't even look at it as a mobile phone, but as a fashion item.

The technical specs are the same as the regular version, and it comes with [interchangeable face plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sidephone-sp01) and wallpapers. The proud parent is [Vodafone Europe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hmd-pulse), who's selling it for the very friendly price of 89 euros.
