Okay, so that might be a bit of an over-exaggeration for a blog post title. I could certainly live without these gadgets but perhaps not as enjoyably ;-). Today I am sharing my current top 10 tried-and-true gadgets that I use on a day-to-day basis. For your convenience and for mine, I’ve linked all of the items below to Amazon with my affiliate code.

Olloclip 3-in-one Lens for iPhone
Image 4 of 11
3. Olloclip 3-in-One Lens System around $65. This was given to me as a gift this past summer, and I love it! The Olloclip contains 3 photo lenses in one that clip right onto your iPhone and allows you to get different shots with your camera phone. You do have to take your phone out of its case in order to clip the lens on which is kind of a pain. With the Olloclip you receive a Macro lens which allows you to get extreme close up shots of items with your phone, a Wide-Angle lens which doubles the width of your view and is great for landscapes or room shots, and a Fisheye lens which captures approximately a 180 Degree field-of-view and produces some fun images. Note: This one is for the iPhone 5. For the 4S version click here.

I have seen that Olloclip a few times, and after seeing this I decided to go buy one yesterday. Once I got home I realized they gave me the 4, so of course it was too big for my iPhone 5. My husband has the 4 so I thought I would at least try it on his. And as soon as I did, it pushed back his screen protector. Opps, in big trouble with the MR. lol. So when we went back out later, I got the one for the 5. But I keep trying to put it on mine and I just know it will do the same to my screen protector. The lens already lifted it up at the corner just a teeny bit. What do you do about this? I really want to use the Olloclip, but don’t want it ruining my iPhone screen protector.

Oh good point! I never use screen protectors. I’ve had an iPhone for a little over 2 yrs and in the beginning I used one but hated it so just opted for no protection. My iPhone wallet case protects it from breaking when dropped which I love!

I love it when you do these posts–since I keep a gift ideas and wish list going year round and am always looking for ideas.
