A further 17% said they even matched their phone case, outfit and make-up all at once.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The survey goes on to reveal that the phone case has overtaken the belt as the new must-have accessory. Respondents were asked to rank accessories in order of importance and phone cases ranked higher than belts and on-par with watches in terms of wardrobe coordination.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u2018One Unique\u2019 fashion photographer and blogger, Sophie Calverley commented: \u201cPhone cases are just as important as any other piece of clothing since you often see them in photos like mirror selfies. There\u2019s something about having your phone case match your outfit as there is about your nail colour matching your outfit.

Some customers buy new cases every week in order to complete their outfit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">We get sent mirror selfies from our customers all the time and love seeing our phone case designs being put to creative use. We see them as an act of self-expression \u2013 an extension of our customer&#8217;s personalities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">As the mirror selfie trend continues, more and more tools and toys are being developed to help millennials get the most \u201cInstagrammable-image\u201d of them all. From LED illuminated phone cases to iPhone fans to get a wind-swept look, selfie-optimised phone cases are fast becoming the number one tech-ccessory.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">To view the complete survey results, go to Tirita\u2019s brand new website:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiritacase.com\/fashion-survey-phone-cases-voted-more-important-than-belts\/\">www.tiritacase.com\/fashion-survey-phone-cases-voted-more-important-than-belts\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>About the survey<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Tirita surveyed 300 UK females aged 16-24 on 20\/08\/2018 to discover if they had ever matched their phone case with their outfit or make-up. Respondents were asked 3 questions around matching their phone case with their outfit and had to rank accessories in order of importance. Tirita then analysed the results.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-524552\"
