The colors and patterns that we pick for our wardrobe as well as jewelry and other accessories are all little outlets of out unique personalities. A simple glimpse at a person provides many clues about who they are and what they like. Don't get me wrong, I don't think we can or should judge people on appearances, but it's undeniable that the way we look has the potential of revealing a lot about us.
If you 'believe in' accessorizing, you might be also use your 'gadgets' as accessories. Women are notoriously known for that my having different panels for their phones, lap-tops and watches. Of course, men do it too, but in in the obvious glitzy way that we usually like to do it (and I apologize for stereotyping, but let's face it ... most girls like colors and glitz). Phone panels, vinyl stickers and cases are a super easy way to add some character to your daily necessity - the phone. It's true that the phone is no longer the boring piece of machinery if used to be. Today, it is all personalized with tons of applications, pictures and all other features you might like, but for compulsive 'accessorizers', the outside matters too.
Here are some ideas for those of you who have iPhones.
iPhone Cases
Ever since the iPhone sensation exploded with millions of fans worldwide, there has been ever growing variety of cases and covers in all shapes and forms. When it comes to cases, my favorite brand is Vaja. They offer great quality leather products that are simply stunning to look at and, more importantly, will really protect what's inside. However, as usual, good quality comes at a price; plus, if you order a case it usually takes around 45 days for it to be handcrafted, but the end product is worth the wait. See for yourself.
If this is not really your style, however, and you would prefer something that's funny, or geeky, or whimsical there's a lot to pick from. Let me share with you some finds from the Etsy store, but just keep in mind that items there are unique and usually come just one in stock.
