this damn book.

colorstrology by michele bernhardt assigns a color to every day of the year, and breaks down what your color says about you. and it's pretty hard to stop flipping through... or so i've heard. 

it pays you compliments, tells you what to wear, lets you in on potential best color friends, and even provides the pantone code for you -- should you want to buy ten gallons of paint in your particular hue. 

20 bucks.

you may have seen similar prints in the store before, but they're better than ever now: each print is screened onto a piece of bamboo, complete with keyhole. they also look really great just sitting on a desk or shelf. plus, they're made in the US. plus, they're just the cutest. 

the 4x4 babies (like the one above) go for $46. larger pieces for $58. check them out here.

NEW: izola


new in store and online: get-ready necessities by izola. the collection includes awesome hand-milled soap sets, bamboo toothbrushes and ceramic soapdishes made in new york by the famous niagara china company. 

we love the products as much as we love the inspiration behind the company, as founder neil rasmus explains:

"My grandfather, Jim O'Brien, has always been a role model for me.  He was an orphan, Naval Academy boxer, World War II veteran, oral surgeon and successful entrepreneur throughout his life.  Over his career as an oral surgeon he set up clinics in various parts of the world.  One of them was built on a small island in the Grenadines called Bequia.  Bequia (pronounced /ˈbek.wi/ or /ˈbek.weɪ/) is the largest island in the Grenadines. It is part of the country of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and is approximately 15 km from the nation's capital, Kingstown.
Throughout my family's Bequia adventures a woman by the name of Isola McIntosh was widely known as the matriarch of the island.  She was famous for her hospitality at the only B&B on the island appropriately called "Isola's Guest House".  She was also famous as an entertainer and mediator of most island issues.  In the attached picture she is shown assisting in the dental office.  Throughout my childhood Isola embedded herself as part of family legend and still embodies a sense of adventure, friendship, hospitality and cultural outreach.   The idea of Isola (or Izola, as I always spelled it as a child) became so important to me that at 17, I named my first flask "Izola" and when I was 24 decided to name my first company after her."

for dipping and drizzling and eating and yes.



nudo extra virgin olive oils just came to us straight from the groves of italy and we're pretty excited to try them on everything this season. try the extra virgin first cold press ("original"), chillies, mandarins, thyme or basil. each oil is perfect for dipping bread or drizzled over salads, chicken, red meat or vegetables-- the tins note which oils go best with what foods. 

the oils come packaged in 250ml tins, which protect them from sunlight and keep them fresh.   

and if you can't get enough nudo, you can even adopt your own olive tree for year -- you'll receive all of the produce from it too.

NEW: a love that burns.. for 16 delicious hours.





margo from tatine is our new hero. why?

  • she makes the most amazing soy and beeswax candles in an old recording studio / loft space in downtown chicago.
  • she's influenced by rock stars of the 60s and 70s.
  • she believes, like us, that candles can transport you to a different place, even a different time. she loves london and created many of the "tisane" scents to share the scent of her favorite place.
  • her candles have badass names like "love that burns" and "bron yr aur," which is either a quaint welsh cottage or the name of a led zeppelin song. it's hard to say.



yeah, she's just that cute. thanks, margo, for some truly kickass candles. we can't wait to smell what else you come up with.

we're having a moment with orange. it's happy but not obnoxious, it pairs well with neutrals, and it's always pretty easy to find at least one orange element to inject your wardrobe or daily life with a shot of color....

sweet shanna murray.

we're not super girly, nor are we particularly sentimental, but there's something about these shanna murray decals that we're pretty in love with. her handwriting is awesome and her choice of colors is even more so. the packaging's also something...
