At first I was pleased with my padded white case. However the padding soon became black (coming from within). I emailed [name removed] three times before she replied telling me to expect white to get dirty! she refused to give me an address for return to give her the opportunity to inspect it - she refused. However I sourced the address myself and sent it recorded delivery - four days later it was returned to me without even the courtesy of a cover letter!

One of the latest trends is to decorate phone cases with crystals, giving a sparkling bling diamond effect. BlingBoutiques.com is a company whose aim is to provide top quality products using genuine Swarovski crystals at realistic prices. They have a range of unique designs using fewer crystals than a full cover, thus keeping the price affordable. This doesn't mean that the quality is any less though. Indeed their designs look a lot more tasteful and classy than some of the fully covered cases. A lot of care and thought also goes in the craftsmanship and the adhesives they use. Overall, excellent value for money.
