{iphone 5 case round up}

Last week I became the proud owner of a new iPhone 5 (an upgrade that has been waaaaay overdue).  Now the hunt is on to find the perfect case to protect it from all the times I will undoubtedly drop it such as every other time I get out of the car and forget the phone was on my lap- does everyone suffer from this issue or is it just me?

Here's a few I have been eyeing (my favorite is the white tassel case, but there's an obvious question of practicality there):

 Jeweled Print Case  |  Gold & Stripe Case  |  Abstract Case 

 Crosshatch Case  |  Studded Case
