I L.O.V.E. color but sometimes you just can’t beat good old B + W.

Happy Hottest Day Ever. Been painting a bunch of patterns lately for a few projects. Here a few of my faves… going to pretend these are beach towels I am laying on. Like, right now.

I am in love with this Ralph Lauren fabric. Hell, I am in love with Ralph Lauren (I mean, come on). Ideally, I would cover everything I own in it but the per-yard-fee just won’t allow it. So I have settled for a healthy swatch and a ton of color inspiration.
P.S. The original .

It. Is. So. Hot.
The sun is shining.
Summer is here.

Was recently given a set of MUJI colored pencils as a gift… A reminder of just how beautiful/simple/pure their designs + packaging are. Spent some time in the MUJI section of the MoMA store this spring. You walk in there and boom, an hour goes by. The brand’s restraint is really inspiring. You can buy the pencils here.
Last photo: I pulled together a few other things in my stash that complement the natural colors of MUJI. Clockwise starting at the top: bag that my new CXXVI anchor necklace arrived in (love), vintage Seneca Lake postcard (hometown pride!), anchor stamp from Paper Source, leather string from Smith & Chang in Jersey City (a must-visit shop), lil kraft bags, MUJI info card + pencils.

Took a quick break today after a long couple of days of deadline-cramming (project completed, yay!). Headed out to Pine Street in Burlington which is endlessly inspiring… It’s filled with old warehouses that have been converted into shops, cafes, artist studios, antique stores, you name it. Ended up at book shop. Not sure if it was the hot summer weather (my car said 96 but it likes to exaggerate) but I seemed to only buy in red, white, + blue. Don’t even get me started on the titles… Pep?! The Chance of a Lifetime? How could I not buy these.
Also, the amazing Jane of simple + pretty did a really sweet feature of my work today. Check it out here. Thank you, Jane!
P.S. Happy June 1st. Whoa.
