Manolo Blahnik Mary Jane Slingback - Marimekko Unikko

First to recommend

Description

Iconic fabric + iconic shoe designer = instant classic.

Marimekko's floral Unikko fabric may be the most powerful flower around- it's been around since 1964 when designer Maijia Isola created it in protest to a statement from Armi Ratia that Marimekko didn't design florals ( http://www.marimekko.com/ENG/interior/fabric/maijaisola/unikko/frontpage.htm ). I love the proportions of these shoes, and the wonderful stitching that compliments the fabric perfectly. (via Cool Hunter)

Description

This garland lamp from Tord Boontje is a beautiful and whimsical way to add a major splah of design to your home. Kind of makes your normal kitchen light fixtures look kind of boring, eh?

Janne Kyttanen: Dahlia Wall Sconce

First to recommend

Description

This sconce is all about natural drama. Kyttanen used the number phi ( the golden ratio ) to determine the arrangement of petals for this and her 1597 lamp (also listed on ThisNext).

BUYOU. Japanese Painted Case Belt Buckle. Plum Tree In Blossom.

First to recommend

Description

This daintily painted belt buckle is really an re-purposed Altoid tin. Should fit lipstick, money, condoms and other necessities for those days and nights when you'd prefer to be purseless.

What will you put inside?

Check the seller's shop for a great selection.

George Nelson's sunflower clock still looks great some 50 years later. At over two feet in diameter, this clock lives up to the huge blooms that inspired it!

Modern flowers in lilac adorn this great graphic onesie from Kit+Lili! This reminds me of the radiator cover I used to stare at from my stroller.

Envirosax Reusable Grocery Bags

First to recommend

134 people recommended this item

Description

First, they're so pretty you WANT to take them to the store. Second, these bags are really stong and HUGE. I love that the handle is long enough to go over your shoulder so you can carry many at once. Stop using plastic grocery bags that just sit in a dump after one use! (via Delight Store)

Every child dreams of living in candyland! The lollipop flowers and gumdrop bushes have such bright, fun, appeal. Wall stickers are perfect for kids rooms (and any room, really) since you can remove them without damaging your paint job.

TOKYO HARDCORE KANZASHI BOBBY PIN - Tarina Tarantino

First to recommend

Description

L.A. jewelry designer Tarina Tarantino took a trip to Japan and returned to create a collection she called "Tokyo Hardcore" full of bright neon and candy colors in eye-popping yet chic combos. These sweet little bobby pins-- her updated version of traditional kanzashi floral hair ornaments-- are among the most sedate of the bunch. I just love them: so fun, glamorous & easy to dress up or down!
