Artists for Obama
When is the last time you’ve seen so many different kinds of people galvanizing behind one U.S. politician? Not in my lifetime anyway. As Texas and Ohio grow near and Obama’s campaign contributions have grown to almost one -million individual donors, its easy to see how people are becoming inspired. Take for instance, the Date...
Get refined with Anna C
Although I love posting about great urban designers, I often get frustrated. Lets just say, my job is super formal and there’s no way I could ever get away with wearing some of my favorite designers to work. That’s why Anna Cohen has a special place in my heart. Her gorgeous designs are crisp enough...

Anyway, enjoy Leananimal! Leanimal is designed by Leanne Marshall, a graduate...

Not only are they eco-conscious, their products are amazing. I love their Be Curly Curl Enhancer!...
Climb the Steps of Hope.

Burning Torch
Who do you have a burning torch for you? I mean, it is February after all. Despite the fact I’m not a big fan of Valentines day (pressure if you’re attached, depressing if you’re not) it is the month to give your burning torch some special attention. While you’re at it, check out designer Karen...
