advertising, art, blogs, chalk work, dana tanamachi, dana tanamachi chalk, dana tanamachi typography, design, monicais
i always wondered where all this pretty chalk work had come from. i kept seeing it all over magazines & blogs, & felt a frenzy to see someone love typography soo much. dana tanamachi uses chalk (was obsessed with my elementary teachers blackboards!) to create these beautiful & temporary pieces of art. i love that the project she’s working on doesn’t require any piece of technology or fancy tools, just plain chalk. it’s inspiring to always remember to use what you’ve got…

can’t help but feel super drawn to anything summery and super bright, especially pink. i’ve been in an unexplainable funk, (weather related) that the idea of ordering up a cocktail, feet up, in palm springs, sounds amazing. the fact that it’s already april is a bit scary, (time sneaks up pretty fast!) but i’m super excited to wipe these blues away!

fashion, monicais, scout & catalogue, scout & catalogue 2012, scout & catalogue clutch, scout & catalogue scarf



i’m such a clutch lover & i’m glad this style is being embraced by most. it’s simple, easy to carry, & truly you only put the most important things inside the allotted space. so naturally, i would be a huge fan of scout & catalogue’s (designed by bre) unique approach to embellishment & practicality. the details are so intricate & just might be my next bag purchase. every season has a distinct theme, & i love that every piece is handmade & materials are sourced from places bre herself has visited…these pieces have “dreamer” written all over it…

okay so im usually drawn to things that have the “cute” factor. its great when i find things that i need for everyday, but that also put a smile on my face. so the other day, i headed to one of my favorite shops lundeens in culver city ( i can never go in there without buying something!) & found this little guy from the line zuny. needless to say, he’s been my coffee buddy ever since…
