The Best Kitschy, Food-Themed Phone Cases for Food-Lovers
I always believe in the serotonin-boosting power of trinkets and tchotchkes, but especially when they're functional. That's what I'm so enamored by the influx of personality-forward, food-themed phone cases in recent years; for one, you take your phone with you everywhere, so your happy emotional returns on the case are seemingly never-ending. I also can't think of an iPhone that wouldn't be improved by transforming into buttered toast: Smartphone embellishments are nothing new; for as long as cell phones have existed, they have been dripping in charms and custom cases (see: this subreddit dedicated to Paris Hilton's past cell phones). But we have come a long way from basic 2010s Popsocketry, and steered into trompe l'oeil territory with food-themed smartphone cases. The influx of tinned fish and baguette cases is partially a trickle-down effect from high fashion brands such as Loewe and Puppets & Puppets, which have been serving up elaborate, seemingly edible fashions as the virality of food and restaurant culture has become increasingly lucrative. Admittedly, what's not to love about the way the Chicken Shop Date smartphone case can nestle a single chicken nugget? Below, I have selected some of the most appetite-whetting, food-themed smartphone cases and accessories, from the kitsch and kawaii to the hyper-realistic. Just don't be surprised if someone tries to bite into one at brunch. This and some crusty batard? Say less. This sunny side up grip accessory has a one-month wait list, but it's worth the cooking time. Each level of my ideal fantasy food pyramid is represented on this food case: croissant, jam, cake, and Evian water. The attention to detail is so impressive on this hand-made smartphone case, from the lattice work to the golden-brown crust coloring. Here's an idea: Give this hot dog-themed case to a friend, and then smother it in onions while yelling, 'Chicago-style!' First, find your ideal farmers market tote bag. Then, use this farmers market haul graphic case as a visual summer market checklist (tomatoes, strawberries, cherries, and more). You can customize the color of this tomato-themed case, but we're fans of the vine-ripe green. See More: Add to Cart Buy This Thing Shopping and Pantry Guides

Charli XCX at Dublin's Malahide Castle: A pulsating set from 365 partygirl
A pulsating beat, strobing lights, and a yell 'Dublin, what the fuck you at?' Dressed in a white top with a black bra peeking through, black thigh-high boots and her signature wraparound glasses, Charli XCX appears on stage to the roar of 20,000 people shortly after 9.20pm. It's a heady rush from 365 (the ShyGirl remix) into 360, the crowd jumping as Charli invites fans to 'put their fucking hands up'. On Von Dutch, she struts down the stage steps, singing to those at the barrier: 'It's okay to just admit that you're jealous of me / You're obsessin', just confess it 'cause it's obvious / I'm your number one, I'm your number one!' After the year she's had, it's hard to call that hyperbole. From viral TikTok dances to the singer's sixth album, brat, dominated summer 2024. And Charli - almost two decades since she first entered the industry - has finally made it to the top. In just the fortnight prior to tonight, the 32-year-old has headlined three separate festivals, so it's somewhat understandable that she might be a bit wrecked. She admits as much to the crowd. 'I was feeling a bit tired, a bit low [before the show]', she tells us, 'then I saw everyone's faces.' 'Dublin goes fucking hard for Charli XCX.' Charli XCX at Dublin's Malahide Castle Despite her gruelling run of shows, of course, 365 party girl delivers. On Guess, where she sings of someone wanting to 'guess the colour of her underwear', she flips her skirt giving the crowd a peek, on Track 10, she writhes under rain, singing directly into the cameraman's lens. Pre-show, social media was abuzz with who might be 'the apple girl' for the hit, all about generational trauma, with its one TikTok choreography. At Primavera, it was Chappell Roan. In London, Chicken Shop Date founder Amelia Dimoldenberg got the honour. For Malahide? No CMATs or Jedward (the most popular predications we saw), but a dedication stan painted top to toe in green. Go have your moment, queen. It's hard to know how much Charli, known for her enthusiastic embrace of auto-tune, is actually singing live, but no one here cares. Her role is to act as ringmaster for letting go and embracing one's inner brat. She's a showman, and for that she can only be given full marks, even when she admits herself she isn't on top form. At a tight one hour, the only audible disappointment from attendees is that we didn't get more.
