spring forward 03.11.2013

Happy Monday! Is anyone running a little behind this morning after the time change? Even though we’re running on an hour less sleep, we’re excited that daylight savings time means spring can’t be far behind! We’re ready for pretty spring colors and warmer days. Who’s with us?

introducing our new iphone cases 02.22.2013

Happy Friday to all of you! We always love Fridays, but today is extra-exciting because we are finally getting to share our brand new line of iphone cases with our beloved readers!! We’ve had the best time designing each and every one of these. Seriously! You might recognize some of our signature motifs or patterns, such as, eh-hem, the ampersand! So, we kept the classics but we also really wanted to have a way for you to own some of our latest pattern creations!  We are obsessed with phone cases because it’s the accessory that you always carry with you, yet, it’s such an affordable one to play around with! Don’t you agree? Even on the days when we’re wanting to wear all black, we can rely on our iphone cases for a little hit of extra fun! Don’t you agree? Well, we hope so….and, we really hope you guys are as excited about our new line as we are.  Each one of these will be sold right on our very own etsy shop! so go on….click here and pick one for yourself!

We have iPhone 4 / 4S  and iPhone 5 options and a few of these designs will have additional colorways for you to pick from!

So tell us, do you see anything you like?

Do you have a favorite? We want to know!

    I want the yellow “hello” but also the “bonjour”, the polka dots and all on that row and both the stripes on the top row. Oh, I can’t make up my mind.

    I love the one with the jewels! If only I had an iPhone (or you designed one for the Nexus 4!). ;-) Great work!

    Oh, I love them all! The yellow hello is my favorite, but I may need to get more than one and rotate them. Great job ladies!

color crush: pastels 02.20.2013

We have been seeing pastels popping up everywhere and we are loving it!! Maybe we’re embracing it because it feels so fresh and springy!
