What do you keep in your little black book? Phone numbers? Secret addresses? Notes to self? Amusing doodles? Well bully for you because we’ve got all of the above and more in ours because it houses our iPhone!

Yes iFans, the Little Black Book for iPhone is a case of complete genius because it looks just like a vintage journal-style book. Handmade using traditional bookbinding techniques, this luxe faux-leather case will protect your precious iPhone from bumps and scrapes whilst marking you out as a gadgeteer of style and elegance.

Thanks to its internal wooden frame the Black Book is seriously sturdy, yet it also gives access to all ports and buttons once opened. In fact you can still get at your headphone jack, on/off button and dock connector even when it’s closed. There is even a cutout for the camera lens!

Speaking of opening and closing, this tasteful case also features an elasticated wrap around strap and red bookmark to help release your iPhone from its bookish confines.

Weighing in at a mere 88g the Black Book is compact enough to slip inside bags and bigger pockets, and its cunning appearance could even deter tech-snaffling thieves. Indeed its cover will even wear over time like a real book.

Yes, the juxtaposition between cutting edge iTech and traditional style is a bit like dressing a teenager in a velvet smoking jacket but we think that’s rather cool. But what do we know about trends? All we know is this really is a classic open and shut case.
