I'm loving this Jack & Marjorie Alcott tote spied on Belkina. Available here, on sale for $170.
I'm really taken with this cover design spied on Book Covers Anonymous, one of my favorite book design feeds. I think I may need to purchase it.
Gratuitous garden shots. The pollen has been kicking my ass, as it does every year, but I can still enjoy the garden and all it's new blooms.
There's D, in all his garden glory.
I bought this bakers twine from Divine Twine, in yellow, for Sun's Valentine's Day party favors. I was wondering how else I would use this large spool of left over twine. Well, of course, thanks to D who used it to tie up some homegrown oregano for drying, so cute!
Caught Harlem at the Riot Room Friday night, and they did not disappoint. Wasn't really sure what to expect from the post Hurricane scene, but it was good for people watching (unfortunately didn't grab a good shot of the dude in short shorts and a fanny pack).
Nice, big marching band kick drum? Okay.
We were content.
I know it's not even summer yet, but these slim pants from Opening Ceremony's Fall/Winter lookbook are amazing. So simple, but it's all about that crease and taper. Please send me a pair.
d-rolf brought these great little books back from the AWP Conference, and I was instantly smitten (always smitten with a "series" of anything). Melville House Publishing has created this series of books, The Art of the Novella, and now I want to collect them all. Wish me luck! You can purchase them from their webby.
Wonderful wedding invitation design by Modern Publicity. They are also the designers of Monocle Magazine, so there you go.
I first spied this wonderful store on Dwell's site. Blanket Store is a, well, blanket store, based in Frankfurt Germany. I absolutely love this little shop!
Oh, what a great little book! Some notes from the poster, "Types in the cases of William M. Cheney Los Angeles, was published by Dawson's Book Shop and printed by Cheney in 1961 in an edition of 139 copies. It is a great example of the fine printing, coupled with dry humor for which Cheney was well known." View more shots at typesticke flickr page.
Phew, a nice break from all of those super lame kids blankets (I'm looking at you Pottery Barn for Kids!). The Rush Hour Blanket over at Ferm.
A bit of a late post, Sewn From the Soul by Street Etiquette. A beautiful editorial project of "Style and History" for Black History Month. Nice to see some dudes in the style blog game. They also posted a video of the shoot.
