Summer is here and so is the “it” shoe of the season.
TOMS white glitter classics, $65
The comfort and looks aren’t even the best part! With every pair of TOMS sold, the company will send a pair to a child in need.
Sounds like the perfect mix to me – help support a good cause while treating yourself!

Hi Dad. I know it’s early in the morning and you’re reading the blog. I posted this extra early just so that it would be here as soon as you logged on. Surprise!

I know you’re going to enjoy putting your new Le Creuset to good use in your new kitchen!
Happy Birthday Dad!

I was delighted to come across a feature of Andrew Miller’s work on Designer Daily.
Andrew has taken on the challenge of painting white one commonly-known object every day for 100 days in a project he calls Brand Spirit. The images of branded objects now in white reveal how we come to understand branding, logos and the functionality of these deeply invested items.
Take a look:

With a name like Squish Studio how can I help but be intrigued? This is what the Squish Studio looks like on the inside:
And here is its wicked exterior:
Designed by Saunders Architecture in collaboration with the Shorefast Foundation and the Fogo Island Arts Corporation, this white gem is not only supporting the Fogo Island arts community, but it is also bringing plenty of attention to this tiny part of Newfoundland (area: 110 square miles; population: 2700).

If you’re anything like me, then you appreciate a beautiful table setting. I generally prefer tablecloths but I do like placemats for less formal gatherings. This one from Anthropologie is so pretty, don’t you think?

p.s. I also think it would look great framed. Have you ever framed linens or a piece of fabric?
