Things I Want

These colors make me smile.




  1. Vintage re-issue flap, from Fossil, $148.00. It's simple and a happy color. It'd be the perfect size as an everyday bag for me--not to mention, springtime/summer appropriate :)

  2. Purple Heart street helmet from Nutcase Helmets, $50.00. It's almost spring! (sort of) and I want a cuter helmet. Especially since my bicycle is so beautifully purple and adorable.

  3. Bexley Cyndy wallet from the Kate Spade sample sale, $87.00. Bright and happy with the perfect number of little sections and card spaces. I really, really love Kate Spade because her stuff is so simple, lively and well made.

  4. Trotters brown woven loafers, $??.??. I keep stumbling upon these things while thrifting. But alas, like Goldilocks, they're always one size too big or one size too small. They'd match anything and seem comfortable.

  5. Canvas Mary Jane Flats from Forever 21, $16.80. They are mary janes. They have a bow. I can use the excuse that I do not have navy shoes. And I keep being reminded of how much I like them, since my roommate owns them...



Oh, and in lieu of spring, here is my beautiful bicycle, Henrietta. Because I want to beckon spring in and because you can see her back tire in my last post :)



(it is a bit difficult to tell, but she is light purple.)

Shinzi Katoh

I will start out by saying that I have a deep obsession with clean, simple, cute illustrations. Because of this, I am in love with Shinzi Katoh's childish, whimsical style. I actually received one of his stationary sets for Christmas. Not to mention, the 'japanglish'--which is a little bit silly and a little bit the reason why japanese stationary makes me giggle.



But illustrations + silly english + a wade array of (well made) products = want want want.

It's not even anything I need. Or anyone else, for that matter.




  1. plush toy

  2. ceramic bowl

  3. tote bag

  4. pencil/cosmetic pouch

  5. bento box

  6. postcard

  7. teapot/teacup set
