If your cell phone has grown to become an extension of your hand, a lifeline to your work when you step out of the office, or an essential connection to friends and family around the globe, keep your personal digital assistant looking sharp in a functional, affordable and stylish new case.
1 | Rugged wallet.
Tap into your inner 007 with a slender case that slides out to reveal a hidden compartment for credit cards and cash. From Otterbox, known for its basically indestructible and ingenious designs, it features a high-impact polycarbonate shell, silicone skin and thermal-formed clear membrane.

2 | Stow and go.
No pockets? No problem. Stash your cards, your phone and your other night-out essentials in this quilted clutch with four compartments and a turnlock clasp. The best part is you won't have to upgrade every time you get a new tech toy: the phone pocket is large enough to fit an iPhone or a Samsung Galaxy S4.

3 | Simple sophisticate.
For the minimalist, a sleek, form-fitting casing that is shock-absorbing without the extra bells and whistles fits the bill. Perfect protection in a low profile, available in won't-get-lost-in-the-dark sorbet, basic black, and bright purple.
