caseable has teamed up with fashion blogger CafeFashionista to create a giveaway just for all of you!

We are going to keep this short and sweet. The “how to” of entering this contest is super simple. Click here and follow the instructions! Think you guys can follow that? haha ; )

Good luck everyone!!

Geek is Chic.

Even if you do not consider yourself one of the fashion-forward minded, the geek trend has been rather difficult NOT to notice this summer. It has become quite clear that geek is chic.

So how does one appear geek? Simple, it is all about the frames. Geeky frames have hit the fashion world and have taken it over. This hipster trend turned mainstream is literally everywhere and on everyone. From the Jonas Brothers, to Britney Spears, to even Chris Brown, who hasn’t taken part in this scholarly trend??

Even more so, the trend is hard to hate cause let’s face, somehow this nerdy look is actually really cool . . . like, really cool. So, why shouldn’t your electronic device get in on the action? After all, what’s a geek without their gadgets?

Check out this fun “geek” inspired iPad case we created . . .

Let us know what you think and feel free to create your own geeky cases! ; )

 

Photography and caseable

We are taking this time today to get a little personal with all of you. You know, we want to take things down and get a little intimate for a second . . .

We all know caseable is able to put our favorite photographs onto any case we design. It creates an opportunity for us to capture some of our favorite moments and literally carry them with us always.

The Brooklyn Bridge and a Laptop Case of the Brooklyn Bridge lying in front of it.

Above is an image we wanted to share with all of you. It is one of our favorite cases, the Brooklyn Bridge case, next to none other than the Brooklyn Bridge.

We love, hopefully as much as you, the ability to implement personal photography onto, in this case, our laptop case. It is one of the ways in which we can be sure that we are going to have a design that no one else will; something truly unique.

And so we ask all of you to share with us, as we have with you, some of your favorite images, feelings, and emotions. ; )

Summer Is NOT Over Yet !

a personal beach photo =)

Maybe everyone else is ready for Fall sweaters and pants but we are not!

The Summer is, yes, moving quickly but that does not mean we have to try and keep up. After all, August did just begin!! So with that said, we are analyzing this summer’s biggest trends to help you stay fashionable for the rest of the Summer because yes, there is still Summer left!

In our opinion, Summer 2011 was the return of BOLD in fashion and below are the five biggest trends we took note of:

  1. Bright Colors
  2. Bold Stripes
  3. Fun Patterns
  4. Nautical Themes
  5. 70’s throwbacks

We searched and found our favorite examples of these trends that can, you guessed it!, all be incorporated into a case to make your favorite electronic device, a Summer fashion statement! ; )

                                                                                                        

Lookout for Lace!

This Fall, keep a lookout for lace!

As if the trends of Spring and Summer weren’t clues enough . . . Ladies, Lace is IN.

Lace is perhaps one of the most feminine of fabrics, never failing to express a lady’s womanly side. It’s a way for a girl to be revealing while still being mostly covered.

She can expose a little shoulder, back, or even leg, all while still resonating a sense of style and class. It creates this sense of mystery and let’s be honest, guys? This drives men crazy!

And as Lace took over fashion this past Spring and Summer, it shows no signs of slowing down as we enter the Fall season (will it ever actually go out of style?).

So, as an avid supporter of the Lace trend, we present to you a case we customized (www.caseable.com) to show how your laptop case can also be sexy . . . yup we said it . . . make your case sexy!

Have fun customizing your own Lace designs (hint, click the picture above!) and show us what you come up with. =)

John Mayer iPad Case

So very exciting news here today and before I share with all of you, I wanted to take a moment and introduce myself. Very rarely do I take over as myself but this I just couldn’t contain . . .

My name is Matil (muh-teal) and I have purchased an iPad 2!

Obviously, being a part of caseable, my first thought was what kind of case I would want to carry my iPad in. It was at that very moment, the soothing, ever so charming voice of John Mayer gave inspiration … mostly because I was listening to the John Mayer pandora station. But regardless, below is my personal creation:

I am a little bit in love here . . . with that case that is. haha ; )

But in all seriousness, I took my favorite John Mayer photo, and used it for the front cover. I then paired that with lyrics from my favorite John Mayer song, Edge of Desire, clever right?

Moving on, I always like a hint of color so after the black base, black and white images, white text, and grey interior . . . I needed a pink spine.

Now I just can’t decide which I am more excited for, the iPad or the case.

Anyway, I would love to hear your thoughts before I make my final decision, and maybe some of you even have some of your own design suggestions? Let me know =)

caseable is Re-launching!

caseable has come a long way since our launch last November. We have completed our fully customizable laptop sleeve and had our first Christmas sale. Of course, we have also continued with our product development and are now happy to reveal the results!

caseable is proud to present our re-launch. In addition to our existing laptop sleeves, we now offer high quality handmade design and protection for your iPad and Kindle, as well as caseable journal. To accompany our new products, we have also created a new, cleaner website with a more polished design that better reflects our work.

And for those of you still wondering who we are exactly . . .

caseable is an international company, based in Brooklyn and Berlin, that hand crafts individual sleeves and cases for your favorite electronics. We offer a variety of stylish designs to choose from and, with our customization tool, our customers can create their own design using text, colors and images of their choice.

Here are just a few of the new products you can find as part of our re-launch:

 Tell us what you think!

Office Photo Shoot!

It was quite an eventful day here at the office as we hosted our own caseable photo shoot!

And what better an image to represent caseable (based in Brooklyn, NY) than the Brooklyn Bridge itself? Embodying the cool and urban style that defines caseable, this iconic structure was turned into a hip and rather trendy laptop case.

As David attempts to perfect the office lighting, without injury of course, the photo shoot was a success capturing the perfect snapshot of the latest at caseable. In fact, checkout the finished image as it features David himself (after all, he is That Guy).

But we all know there is more out there than just the Brooklyn Bridge, and so we ask, what structure would you most love to recreate onto your laptop sleeve?

Also, feel free to wave back at our Mina … no need to be shy!
