for the love of books

Friday, July 23rd, 2010

Oh, this spells trouble. Chronicle Books is having their annual Friends & Family Summer Sale. Now thru July 28th, you can get 35% off plus free shipping on everything on their site.

Where to begin? I think I’ll celebrate with some Whoopie Pies and replenish my Moleskine notebook supply. Win!

pedal pusher

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

I love this Public M8 bike. It’s got eight speeds which makes it practical for getting up and down hills, it’s ready-made for adding a super cute basket to the front, and the frame design is based on a classic Parisian city bike from the 1960s and 1970s. But mostly I love it because it’s yellow.

feed the kitty

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010

Of course this Mechanical Kitty Coin Bank is from Japan. Where else would they come up with the idea of making an adorable kitten pop out of a box to steal your money?

take a shot

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

How do you take your coffee? Design the perfect cup by matching the color of your beverage to these Pantone Espresso cups. I’m a latte girl myself (Pantone 464 C) but perhaps you’d prefer an Americano (Pantone 175 C), a cappuccino (Pantone 1395 C), or a straight shot (Pantone 1545 C) for the purists.

tie me up, tie me down

Sunday, July 18th, 2010

Who would have thought that tie-dye would make a fashion comeback? I live too close to Haight Street to have ever thought it possible, but it’s all the rage this summer! Fortunately there’s nothing hippie-dippy about the bright watercolors on this Ocean Scarf from French Connection. Just fresh, summery goodness.
