arcade boutique.

last night's episode of Entourage held a welcome surprise -Jessica Simpson made a cameo at Arcade Boutique in west hollywood, a women's luxury boutique that I had the pleasure of designing while at Montalba Architects. Her cameo is around minute 12, directly following the Mike Tyson scene, ha.

Congrats to Rochelle & Lindsay for the store's cameo :)

take a chance.

kate spade is always a great place to turn for color and clever installations.

I am currently loving this "take a chance" installation in the St. Louis store -

a grid and pops of color, what could be better?

mapping.

what cute maps from Mrs. Lilien's style house, tracking her adventures.

mine would say, CA to B'more / NYC...and she's off again...

I can't wait to receive this map,

(which my amazing friends purchased for us as an engagement gift!)

fashion illustrated.

I'm thinking my friend Lauren will like this one :)

I think I may have to order it just for the cover alone.

aubin & wills

I'm learning all kinds of new things today - from this post, I did some further investigation into the tote bag and found Aubin & Wills, a super cool English store (similar to APC) with great graphics. Love the fox! The second print is by the artist who did the Aubin & Wills home page art, Alan Kitching.

and in contrast...

subdued spring woodland hues. found here. 
everything at rifle paper is amazing,including their blog. 

As well as their use of the new Eames typeface from House Industries. 

I want it!

logo love.

I love this logo or graphic moniker? anyhow it's awesome.
