Under Construction!

prima — Thu, 09 Aug 2007 20:45:08 +0000

Apologies if you noticed anything funny going on with the site this morning. I’m starting to renovate around here and updates will be postponed until I get everything squared away, which will probably be the end of August. (Crossing fingers..)

In the meantime, check out the work of one of my favorite illustrators, Colorblok!

Back from Seattle

I’m back from Seattle. The city was amazing as always, and I have plenty to share from my trip and the always-inspiring TypeCon. But for now, here is a visual overview of things to come:

Clockwise: Cupcakes from Dahlia Bakery; stationery from Nancy; inside Adobe Seattle HQ; Elephant Car Wash in Seattle Center; poster on display at the Type Gallery; flowers growing in the neighborhood of Wallingford; letterpressed poster in the Type Gallery; me in an Anthropologie top (on sale!)

L.A.’s Gentle Fille sells the cutest jewelry! I love the plastic bling and vintage bows.

Lula is Love

I am seriously in love with this magazine! Caught a glimpse of the latest Lula issue on the website, and it looks stunning. They really know how to capture the imagination with their photography and styling:

Oakley Asian Fits

This is for all my Asian mamas:

I was surfing around the Oakley site today, and found out that they have a line of sunglasses with an Asian Fit. They were made for the girls whose “sunglasses tend to sit too low on your face or slide down your nose, touch at your temples or cheeks, or feel narrow at the sides of your head.”

My favorites are Behave and Script.

Flamingos and Craneflies

Check out these animal prints from zand2ohs. Most screenprinted works tend to be too fussy for my tastes, but these are so wonderfully minimal and graphic. The Flamingos print is available at Etsy.

More Madras!

I posted about the Madras Collection from APC earlier. Here are more colorful madras options. Hopefully not worn all together:

1. Jessica Simpson Jada Pump

2. Isaac Mizrahi for Target Sundress - tried this dress on and it’s so pretty! Although I had about a foot of fabric that I’d have liked to hem off

3. Lacoste Roll-Up Shorts

4. Xhilaration Sable Ballerina Flats

House of Laurel

I’m not going to lie, I love stripes. Even horizontal ones. But apparently they are somewhat of a fashion don’t. I would hope these color block tops and dresses from the Rajo line of House of Laurel are more fashion friendly, because they sure are cute.

Children’s clothes aren’t my thing, but their girls’ dresses from their Rajito line are charming without being cutesy:

These modern-looking pieces from Alexis Bittar would look so perfect with a white summer dress:
