Snowglobe Phone Protectors

This Glitter Phone Case is Mesmerizing and Nostalgic

This glitter phone case from Urban Outfitters is a nostalgic throwback to a childhood toy. The pretty phone protector is inspired by the glitter sticks that little girls play with -- plastic tubes filled with glitter and star or heart-shaped sparkles that are suspended in clear liquid. These inexpensive stick toys are hypnotic and amount to hours of fun.

Urban Outfitters is letting teens and grown-ups recapture memories of simple childhood fun and express some 90s nostalgia with this glitter phone case. It also keeps phones safe from spills and scratches that are common among accident-prone adults. The glitter phone case is part of Urban Outfitters' exclusive line of cases for Apple's iPhone 6 model.
