If you follow me on Instagram, you may have noticed that I recently joined the Apple ranks of society and purchased an iPhone. Finally, right?
Next up: Hallie-proofing my phone. With so many options available, a girl could use a little help. So, which of the following iPhone cases is your favorite? In an ideal world, I’d like one that is water-proof, drop-proof and, well, lose-proof, but I digress… Cute and stylish will do.
Seriously — I’m relying on you to comment below or tweet me with your top pick, or else I’m just going to buy all of them!
1. DVF / 2. Kate Spade / 3. Rebecca Minkoff / 4. DVF / 5. Tory Burch / 6. Marc Jacobs / 7. Rebecca Minkoff
If you have an iPhone, which apps do you suggest I download? (If you don’t, I’m sorry!)
I have to admit: I was playing hard to get, at first, but it’s kind of a euphoric you-are-so-much-better-than-a-boyfriend situation I’ve got going on with Siri. She texts, calls, sets reminders and more for me. Seriously? I know you know this already, because I’m such a late adopter, but hey, I’m still in the honeymoon phase.
Thank you for your help! xo

The coral Rebecca Minkoff is my favorite, just because I have the pink and it’s the most amazing case ever and I’ve had it the longest I’ve had any case. Kori xoxo
Good to know! I def need one that’s durable — that, or I need to learn to be much less clumsy
Thanks, Kori!
Ahhhh! So happy you got one!
Okay- first piece of advice- Kate Spade cases are the cutest BUT I have had approximately 5 of the KS plastic cases and they break if you drop your phone. A case should protect the iPhone, not break. It’s hard to resist the chicness of them, but save your $40.
I have a Rebecca Minkoff case and I really like it! (I’ve been eyeing that multicolor leopard print case from #3!)
Also, Speck Candy Shell cases are awesome. Rubber on the inside, plastic on the inside. They come in some cool color combinations, too! Can be bulky though… They definitely protect the best, but aren’t as cute as some of the designer ones.
And finally- J.Crew cases aren’t bad but they basically only protect from scratches, not drops. Very thin!
Hope this helps!! xo
You are like a certified expert in this arena
Thank you so much! We will have to discuss in-person over a glass (or two) of wine! And soon!
Very soon, please!
For the Speck- rubber inside, plastic outside. #proofread
i like #5 the best! I just got an iphone this week and personally went with a teal otterbox-it has amazing protection!
Oooh, I will need to check out Otterbox. Adding it to the list. Thanks, Amanda!
They are all so pretty! But my favorites are 6 & 7!
I’ve been getting a lot of votes for #7… Rebecca Minkoff may be in the lead!
I am obsessing over the Rebecca Minkoff cases but I also like the Tory Burch (however, not sure how the quality is on that one) But when in doubt…get two
I think the Tory Burch might be my fave, too. So perfect for spring, right? I think I’m going with your suggestion at getting 2 (or 3… or 4…)
OMG im laughing right now because I just got an Iphone and I am so euphoric about it. I want to shout it from the rooftops but everyone and their mom has already been enjoying this feeling. No one to share it with. Thanks for all the good case ideas! I think I want that DVF “be yourself” one super cute
Hahaha- you and me, Alana. Late Adopter support group!
I vote for 2, 3 and 5!! So many to choose from. Get all of them and switch up depending on your mood. Yeah. I know..I’m no help at all. lol.
LOL - we are the WORST. I want them all. That’s justifiable, right? They are all so cute!
Saw your pic on IG - you are going to love it. I am also a late adopter - just got mine three months ago. But you’re right, Siri is amazing! I think the Tory Burch case is my favorite. I found my case of Etsy - it has the Paris metro map printed on the back of it. You can find lots of original cases there. I bought mine from On Your Case. Enjoy!
Lol, Siri <3 I think the TB is my fave, too. But then again, I literally can *not* decide. I’ll have to check out Etsy, brilliant idea - yours sounds so cute!
In love with #2 and # 5, but after reading the comments, if #2 breaks easy, my vote would be #5. You’ll have to tell us which one you pick! Also, um, Draw Something is terribly addicting.
I totally will! I *love* #5 for spring/summer so I think its’ what I’m leaning toward…
TORY BURCH or MARC JACOBS!! It all depends on it you got a black or white iphone, but I think both would look great.
I got the black - so you think I should go with the MJ then!? Thanks!
Kate Spade is my fave if we’re only talking aesthetics.
I love my iPhone! I have the Kate Spade one and it’s true, if you drop it once, it cracks very easily. The case is also tough to slip on and off if you need to for a dock or any other reason.
J.Crew ones are rubber and thin. They’re cute, but less protective.
Society 6 has great prints, but I’m not sure on the quality. I’m going to check them out though! http://society6.com/cases?show=new
I need to switch from my Kate Spade one pronto because it’s allllll cracked up.
As for apps: Instagram, PicFX, Diptic, HeyTell, Twitter, Facebook, Draw Something, Pandora, Shazam, Zappos, Map My Fitness, Yelp, Urbanspoon, Kayak, HopStop, Netflix, and banking ones are what I use most.
Love the Tory Burch case!!
