These have to be the cutest water bottles ever...

Earthlust designs a series of stainless steel bottles so that you may "never have to use a plastic bottle anymore". Very earth-friendly and sustainable!

Sale!

Now, what can be better than finding great design for really great prices? I was browsing through Flowie and found some lovely bags for half price.

Not only that, though: take a look at the fabrics and tea towels as well. I just need all of them!

Somewhat Folk

Ever heard of Mallu Magalhães? This 16-year old girl is now one of the new names in folk music in Brazil.

I actually didn't like many of her songs, but give her a chance and check out this one: Tchubaruba.

2009

New Year is comming!!

I loved this printable PDF calendar from Little Brown Pen, available at Etsy. The best part? Only $5.00!!

pearlfisher

Ever heard of pearlfisher? This British agency designed some outstanding brand logos and developed graphic design, strategy and brand identity for some well-known brands, such as Jamie Oliver and This Water.





I loved these designs! They are so simple and yet show sheer brand passion and integration with their customers. Lovely labels as well!

Carpets!

I couldn't say I'm a carpet lover, but these two pieces are really something... I found these carpets and rugs at Madeline Weinrib Atelier, a nice place to browse something new for your house. I find specially charming the way she uses indian motifs on the rugs, making them almost ethnical.

She has also nice pillows, with lovely design and modern fabric patterns. Take a look!

Sustainable Cupcoats!

Cute fabric cupcoats available @ Wishing Fish to get rid of a lot of paper waste during the year. Quite chic to show off at the office runway...

Bloomacious!

Lovely blog I just stepped upon: Bloomacius has some nice selection of crafs, design pieces, food and fashion among other items. Reminds me a bit of Vogue magazine.

What I've been up to...

By this time of the year, I've decided to dedicate some of my time getting in the mood for Christmas, so I bought this book on short stories, The Ecco Book of Christmas Stories, and have been reading it, almost hearing Jingle-Bells... Lovely stories; highly recommended!
