Different Kind of Bag

This Vivienne Tam HP Digital Clutch weighs a total of two and half pounds and is fully functional, however you can’t carry anything in it. This adorable mini-computer clutch was toted down the runway at her Spring 2009 show.


Available here.

Green Screen


When I visit MoMa in New York I am always entranced by the plastic algae screen. Recently I found out that my friend had bought a pack and had snapped together her own algae screen in her apartment.
Even better, the screen of algae is available in a variety of colors, click here.

Spotty

Most tattoos are very easy to spot, but Sarah from public personae took a different route with her blue freckle tattoos. Gotta say that they’re pretty awesome.

Happy Earth Day!

House of Pantone

TRKFLD loves Pantone. House of Holland’s Fall ’09 show, by designer Henry Holland, was a Pantone lover’s dream. Nothing but stripes and stipres of numbered colors and Agyness Deyn (swoon)!

Super Fruity

Forgive me if it seems I am on a beverage kick, but these juicebox designs are delicious! Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa created this series of fruit juice packaging to mimick the look and feel of actual fruit. (via Toxel).



Tea People

There’s been a lot of crazy tea bag talk this week around Philly so we decided to shift your attention to some real tea bags. The design studio WDARU created a series of tea bags that appear to be little people! Each tea bag person has their own personality and perches on the edge of your mug while your tea steeps. Just don’t start talking to the tea bag people, your co-workers will think you are crazy. (Via Toxel).


Vegan, Charitable and Colorful!

I’m a lover of TOMS. Their company’s mission is simple, “For every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of shoes to a child in need. One for One. Using the purchasing power of individuals to benefit the greater good is what we’re all about”.
Heck yes! Not only are their shoes super comfy but they give to the needy and come in tons of colors and print. My personal favorites are the glitter ones.


Wearing Tones and Colors



Wear Palettes is all about breaking down that awesome outfit you wore last night into to a simple construction of color bars. Both look pretty!
