Since not everyone likes all things in full colour, designer Anton Repponen came up with a new set of iPhone icons for the B&W discerning folks to use. Unfortunately, these only exist in the realm of design and fiction.
Here are more images of what you would get if this was actually downloadable:

I’m one of those people who has about five (or more) books on the go at once (both fiction & non-fiction). Who’s with me? Over the last few days I finished reading three books: Sophie Kinsella’s I’ve Got Your Number, Seth Godin’s Poke the Box, and Steig Larsson’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. It’s gratifying to come to the end of a book because it feels like I’ve learned something new. It’s also exciting because coming to the end of one book means that I’ll get to go to the beginning of another one.

One of my most favourite gifts to give to newborns is a sweet white cuddly animal from the English Jellycat line. They are so soft and cuddly, not to mention adorably cute.
Jellycat mini Bashful Lamb, $9.99, Chapters Indigo
When I was little, I was hooked on Hello Kitty and Little Twin Stars. Then it changed to the colourful Lisa Frank line. What are kids’ top choices for stationery these days?
Well – according to my friend Suparna Grade 6 children in Singapore are smitten with the Smiggle collection of binders, notebooks, pens, and organizational products.
While many of the products from Smiggle, an Australian stationery company founded in 2003, come in blue, purple, pink, green, and black, I did find that there are a lot of white and silver versions too. Perfect for a child who has more of a minimalist tendency.
