I am in love with Dolce Press and their absolutely gorgeous custom letterpress business cards. Take a gander. I bet you’ll fall for them, too.

Museum der Dinge / Museum of Things (Berlin)

HOLY CR@P. Rob Keller from You Should Like Type Too posted today on a brilliant new find: The Museum der Dinge (Museum of Things) in Berlin! It’s chock-full of amazing, vintage goodies (er, THINGS). Just in case you’re not following Rob (which, come on, what’s wrong with you?), I thought I’d offer you some of my “thing” (“dinge”?) highlights:

French Friday: Le blog de la méchante!

A “méchante” is a mean girl. Yet, Élodie seems as creatively (and fashionably) charming as they come. I was introduced to her site by the lovely Katrina over at Pugly Feet, where she featured Elodie as one of her style muses back in June. Trust me: you are going to want to steal ALL of Elodie’s outfits. It’s kind of annoying how adorable she is, really. Maybe that‘s why she’s la méchante.

All images below have been graciously borrowed from Le blog de la méchante:

Happytape!

I entered a lovely little giveaway over at Oh, hello friend (one of my favorite blogs!) the other week, and I won a fabulous assortment of ten colored and striped tapes from happytape! Happytape features Japanese washi paper tape in a bajillion different colors and patterns (give or take).

Here’s what the package looked like that I excitedly received yesterday in the mail:

And here are the ten happytape wonders in their packaged glory:

This is what the striped pack looks like in detail (this image, and all images below, from the happytape site):

A couple of my favorite patterned tape assortments from the shop:

PLAID!

Tiny dots!

And examples of just some of the vibrant color assortments offered:

Thank you to Oh, hello friend and happytape for such a wonderful gift!!!

La rentrée scolaire!/Back to School!

Another semester begins for me tomorrow. Unbelievable. Almost as unbelievable as the fact that, every September, the “Back to School” theme to Grease 2 is a permanent fixture in my head.

“Gotta go back (back) back, back to school again…”
