    These days designers are branching out from traditional home goods to
    put their mark on the world of technology as well. As much as we all use
    our cell phones, it makes perfect sense that they would eventually
    become an additional outlet for expressing our personal style.

    I’m an iPhone fanatic so today I thought it would be fun to round up some of my favorite create iPhone covers – all under $100. In addition to the options below, I love services like I Make My Case and Grove that let you customize your case with your own combination of patterns, colors- and even custom etching or cases that feature your company’s logo or branding. But, if you’re looking for something ready-to-buy, I hope you’ll enjoy the options above and below!

      Let it be known that the copper case on the first page, scratches and wears away to reveal a hideous neon that is also on the inside.
      My friend and I have a copper & gold case from InCase and within a month or so, the shiny material chips away.

      i’m so sorry to hear that! i’ve had my copper case for a few months now and haven’t experienced any chipping. but i did recently start to get chipping with my polka dot case (the black and white one above).

      I fell in love with the cases from Uncommon. It was hard to pick only one. I wanted to buy all of them. Ended up falling for this one:

      Same thing happened to me- I had the gold InCase for the iPod Touch and it chipped away after a month or so, revealing the red plastic lining underneath. I had purchased mine from the Apple store online and so I went back to leave a cautionary review and the product had disappeared. I wonder if other people had already complained. Bummer nonetheless!
