Do you dream of sporting sartorial style ala Don Draper of Mad Men fame? Want your hubby/boyfriend to dress up but can’t get them to commit to a suit? Perhaps, the first step is getting their accessories to look as swell as they want to be. Baby steps. The JAVOedge Herringbone Case Collection was designed to be guy friendly in a put-together, sharp look. With an accented herringbone pattern soft suit material, this case will make guys stand out from the boring iPad case crowd.

For the bookish couples out there, what better way to commemorate your love for each other through tailored book reads?

For the nerdy bookish couples we’ve encountered at JAVOEdge, nothing beats the story of a husband who bought his wife an eReader, loaded with all her favorite books, to give her. That’s thoughtful, convenient for her, and every time she reads from it, she’ll think of him.

We also love it when we hear of girlfriends buying cases for themselves and their boyfriends or vice versa, husbands for their wives. Couple gifts are the best!

Here’s our list of our favorite pairings along with our favorite literary couples of all time.

Case for the Kindle 3 Couple:

Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks are a literary couple in that both are competing book sellers in rainy Seattle. In Seattle, plaid plays a part in outfits since cozy reading is key due to the drizzly weather and that’s also the place where Grunge music was born.

Jane Austen’s couple in Pride and Prejudice is famous for being opposites. Darcy and Elizabeth Darcy comes from a very high social hierarchy and Pemberley. The Victorian era had its own stylish flourish from the suits to the dresses.

Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet were a couple from warring families. Opposites attract.

For the Apple couple, we’re looking at 2 totally different styles, the utilitarian Editor Case and the lovely, feminine Cherry Blossom Case.

Inspire some put-together cool, fitted looks that even Don Draper would approve. With his tight-fitted gray suit and crisp collar, a modern-day Don Draper could stroll to work and home, carrying our newest addition to the Nook Color Case lineup – the JAVOedge Charcoal Case for Barnes & Nobles Nook Color.  Since you can’t judge a eBook by the cover, make sure your eReader case looks just as sharp and smart as you appear, Don Draper would probably say. It’s available in Stone or Dusk in Book or Flip format. Which do you think would look better at the Sterling Cooper office?

Forum user, Akfloyd, from NookBoards, a popular B&N Nook fan forum, posted what we believe are the first snapshots of our Nook Color case seen outside our store. The Nook Color’s color screen definitely pops up in these photos against the case. Cheers to seeing her model our delightful Cherry Blossom Book Case in Twilight Purple.

For this tech lover’s household, she owns two eReader devices – the Barnes & Nobles Nook and the Amazon Kindle 2. Either way, AmberLi from NookBoards has them covered with the JAVOedge Cherry Blossom Flip Case in Red and Twilight Purple. Thanks for sharing, AmberLi!

Just snapped out in the wild, customer and NookBoard member, WGal, bought our newest style, the JAVOedge Charcoal Book Case for Barnes & Nobles Nook. She had been eyeing it for  her husband, knowing his personal style. “He absolutely loves it!” she said.
