Oooh! A typewriter that paints. Replace keys with color pads. Woop! Not that I’ll be able to do anything with it, but it is worth a try. Would anyone like to order paintings just in time for the holidays? Send me an email – I’d love to try my best.

Like any good friend, my Vera, knows that I love Post-it® notes, Tetris and bright colors. Add it all together and what do you get? Block Notes.
These type of things tend to make me extremely happy. Extremely.
Ben Ambrose, I love you for these. I really, really do.
As a little girl, I remember my dad’s bird book.
Yes, I thought we were ‘cool’, because nobody else had a bird book.
You do not have one, do you?
See? We are still ‘cool’.
John (勇士丸) is the elder brother (artist), Fish (小魚) is young sister (assistant). Together they are John&Fish from Tainan, Taiwan – but are currently living and working in Taipei city.
“We like bird photography very much, almost spent every weekend (since 2005~now) went around the island to capture their beautiful shapes, for those we have to thank our motherland-Taiwan for giving such beautiful creatures to us.”
Thank you John&Fish for sharing these beautiful photos.
P.S. For the fun of it, this one made me laugh. So cute.
How many magazines do you buy a month?
Me? I do not buy any. A few magazines get delivered to my doorstep – for free*.
I am a page-through-it-once-and-leave-it-on-the-floor-to-collect-dust type of magazine reader.
Vogue is a different story. Especially bright colored Vogue covers. Purple too.
Every now and then I love to browse through the editorials (and covers) at Fashion Gone Rogue. Which is exactly where you’ll find the cover for Vogue Paris 2011.
Isabeli Fotana, you look gawww-juss.
Not your thing? Then knit your own. Or if you prefer embroidery, you can do that too.
Inge Jacobsen, you are quite the embroider.

If this post looks odd, do forgive – I am using WordPress on my phone for the first time. If it works, then ‘woo-hoo’, ‘yay’ and ‘yeeha’ all at the same time.
Back to Pip Wallpaper. This morning I went to a 5 storey fabric store for a browse and somehow ended up on the upholstery floor.
That is when a giant hot pink book distracted me (not very hard to do). How can you walk past something so bright and happy-looking? Not to mention beauuutiful, and again – bright.
I want (need) this sample book. Please.
Prepare yourself for the worst photo of the year (or maybe the last 3 years?). Is it possible for an air conditioning unit to affect a phone like this? Liiines. Laugh.
Note to self: Invest in a small camera that you can carry in your bag at all times. Cellphone photos are not allowed. These should be banned.
Makeup + color = 2 of my favorite things.
Which is why I cannot stop staring at Toni Garrn for the March 11th issue of Elle France. Photos by David Slijper, styling by Julie Chanut-Bombard and the beautiful, bright makeup by Romy Soleimani.
You can stare at the rest of the editorial here.
If you would like to find colors that will make your own eye color pOp, try Physicians Formula. They have products that are designed for brown, hazel, blue and green eyes. Yes, it works – little gems.
“Nutella wanted to celebrate the 150th Anniversary of italian Unity together with millions of Italian families and asked ARC’s. to interpretate the project in four themes: Arts, Design, Landscapes & Architecture, Historical topics. Through the ‘Esperienza Italia 150′ limited edition collection, Nutella ideally embraces all italians, from the South to the North, as a sole big family.”
Italy (love), bright colors, cute illustrations and some of the best tasting chocolate. What more do you need?
Remember to put Nutella into an ice cream cone before you scoop the ice cream. Best.
Thank you Jean for taking all the photos.
How good-looking are these paper letters? Not to mention fun.
I think these are the new crossword puzzles.
They say ‘a change is as good as a holiday’, or more like a dork needs a holiday.
This is what you do on a Sunday afternoon.
Note to self: Find movies that have pink or purple covers.
Yes, there is a day called Purple Day and it is today.
This might be my new favorite holiday.
Yesterday, when I heard about Purple Day, it immediately made me think of all the purple things that I love.
Other favorites include Purple Rain and MAC’s Up The Amp.
“Purple is the color of good judgment. It is the color of people seeking spiritual fulfillment. It is said if you surround yourself with purple you will have peace of mind. Purple is a good color to use in meditation. Purple has been used to symbolize magic and mystery, as well as royalty. Being the combination of red and blue, the warmest and coolest colors, purple is believed to be the ideal color.”
Do you have any purple loves?
