>Where can I buy lights to go along the wall like this ?
I would guess (from the corner shadows on the wall) what they did in that picture was they moved the ceiling moulding out from the walls about a inch, and then installed some LED strips.

Another possibility that you could investigate is to mount some side-emitting fiber optic lights (pic related). (for either of these two choices you can get LEDs or drivers that can change colors; many pre-made setups even come with a remote control).

The third {nuclear} option is to go to a neon sign shop and have real-actual-neon lamps made like that. This is going to cost way more than either LED method and it would only be in one color, but it would look the best.
....however...
Aside from being pretty expensive, neon signs and their transformers can cause EMF that makes using other (wireless) devices difficult to use, and neon lamps can be audibly noisy.

Final warning: any of the photos selling this stuff may be doctored or taken under 'ideal' circumstances. I've seen places decorated with fiber-optic and it doesn't look like much at all in the daytime. It only looks good in the dark.
