One of the most attractive phones to come out this year is the LG Chocolate slider phone. This phone oozes style like a pair of Manolo Blahniks and comes in vibrant electric pink (pictured) or cool snow white, as well as the original black. The Chocolate has a 1.3-megapixel camera, colour screen and a glowing red heat- and touch-sensitive navigation pad. It's currently available for free on a monthly contract or for around £150 on pay as you go.

Next up on the catwalk is the Motorola Krzr. This is Motorola's latest clamshell phone and it has a glass mirrored front that looks great. The Krzr features a 2-megapixel camera, expandable microSD slot and can be used almost anywhere in the world. It's currently available for free on a monthly contract or for about £255 on pay as you go.

Alternatively, there's the similarly shiny Sony Ericsson Z610i, which also features a 2-megapixel camera and comes with an expandable Memory Stick Micro slot. The two main differences between this shiny clamshell and Motorola's are the OLED screen on the front, which displays numbers and text as if they were floating on the surface, and the 3G connectivity, which enables fast Internet browsing.

The Z610i is currently available for free on a monthly contract or for £190 on pay as you go.

If Nuz wants something a little out of the ordinary she can always opt for the Nokia 7390, which is part of the L'amour collection. This clamshell phone comes in black or pink and has a variety of tribal-esque markings on it that make it rather unusual. More importantly, it's not all looks and no brains, featuring a bright colour screen, a 3-megapixel camera, 3G connectivity, built-in stereo speakers, FM radio and a VGA camera for video calls.

The Nokia 7390 will be available some time soon and retail for around £300 SIM-free and probably for free on a monthly contract.
