I’ve already posted about Topshop‘s nail polish, but here’s a look at the rest of their new make-up range. The packaging is designed by Sarah Thorne, an in-house designer at Topshop. Isn’t it lush?

I know I said I wouldn’t be around much but I keep finding things I want to share with you all. This great article gets under the skin of the re-design of the New York Times magazine.

New work from Jean Jullien. I know I mention regularly how much I love him, but he really is special. He came in to see us at work a month or so ago and brought his sketchbooks with him. They are out of this world. The boy’s incredible. I wonder if he’d design me a [...]

I love Thibaud Herem‘s work. And I LOVE Jean Jullien‘s anchor tattoo, which you can see in that final picture.

I have a massive crush on Alex Ostrowski. Not only is his work inspirational, uplifting and just plain lovely, but he’s really cute too! See? [found via v.]

I have fallen a little bit in love with Jean Jullien. We live just five streets from each other which means practically friends already, right?

I am always on the look out for new things to do in my beautiful new city. Today I discovered the fabulous Lo-Fi London, a guide to the capital through ‘Lomo Eyes’. And obviously through the eyes of someone with incredible taste in… well, pretty much everything. It’s been put together by Tommy of the [...]

Oh my! I just found this incredible bookshop on The Cool Hunter. It’s in Maastricht in The Netherlands and it’s been erected inside an 800 year old former Dominican church. The bookshop was designed by Dutch architects Merkx + Girod whose major challenge lay in staying true to the church’s original charm while utilising the [...]

I’m in love with this spectacular blog called Book By Its Cover. It was started by Julia Rothman to showcase all the beautiful books she finds, and so far she’s amassed an incredible collection of some of the prettiest art, design and photography books around. And after finding this blog, my amazon wishlist has doubled [...]

I quite like these drawings and collages by Danish designer Sofie Hannibal. She’s one half of design studio Hvass&Hannibal who have a whole lot of lovely stuff on their site.

These wallpaper trees from romp are meant for kids but I think they’re great for all ages. They have a really nice range of trunk, leaf and flower patterns for $295.

The Domino magazine website has a great guide to hanging art. From a single painting to a wall full of mis-matched frames, it’s a great way to work out what’s best for your room. So hot.

Lee Page Hanson‘s ceramics studio is just metres from my front door. Lee creates some of the most original and lovely ceramics I’ve ever seen, with images of birds and horses featuring prominently. You can buy his gorgeous tiles in the Craft and Design Centre in Manchester’s Norther Quarter.

I love these window stickers by Emma Jeffs. Setting up her studio in 2000 under the name of Surface Material Design, Emma’s designs are ideal for a room that requires a bit of extra privacy. Perfect for bathroom windows, these adhesive stickers let the light in but keep the prying eyes out. She’s recently released a new [...]

Not even when I had a car accident and ended up upside down in a creek, or when I was in hospital with Joyce the poo jockey (long story, I’ll save it for another time), have I been this close to actual death. Yes, actual human death. I’ve just discovered something so incredibly beautiful that I can’t even function [...]

Sandra Issakson‘s work is all apples, flowers and birds which is a-okay by me. She has some truly gorgeous prints on cups, trays, cards and even wallpaper. She has a great shop on her website too. Lovely!

Urban Outfitters in the States have gone mid-century crazy. Their current furniture collection is absolutely outstanding. They’ve also got loads of other lovely bits and pieces for the home, including the below frame sets and photo murals.

These Shinzi Katoh cotton totes are all part of a collection that consists of pretty much anything and everything you could imagine. From teddy bear soap dishes to red apple chopstick holders and measuring cups, this famous Japanese designer creates the kitsch, naive and insanely cute.
