Tuesday, February 16, 2010 Admiring: Lauren Greenfield

Have you seen the work of Lauren Greenfield? If not, you should check her out. A photographer and a documentary film maker, her work is very celebral, on social subjects that are, oh God, we hate using the word "thought provoking", as it is SO over used, but perhaps it's the most apt.

But you don't have to get deep if you don't want to. Here is a great video done by Lauren Greenfield on NY Fashion week for New York Magazine. It's really fun to watch.

Monday, February 15, 2010 Adorable Recycle Bags

We are loving these recycle bags from 18 Karats.  Bright and colorful, you can use them as gift bags also.

These bags run about $7.50-10 each. You can buy them directly at the 18karat web site.

Fabulous Lighting from Jonathan Adler

One of the biggest challenges we face as a small online retailer is finding good stuff to buy.  It's so hard, let us tell you.  We have to find things that are inexpensive enough, pretty enough, and nice enough in person so when the customers receive them, they'll be happy.

You think it's easy?

Ha!

Fortunately the lamps from Robert Abbey fit those criterias.  They are so well-made and well-priced, we never have been disappointed.

Here are some fabulous pieces from the Jonathan Adler collection for Robert Abbey:
