Drop Me a Line

For years I struggled to design the perfect business cards. For someone who designs things for a living, this really shouldn't have been so hard. So why was it?

Should I blame my perfectionist ways? My fickle nature? Business cards are tough. The goal is to show the world who you are and what you are about, but for me it was also to design something I wouldn't be sick of in 2 months. Cause if I am being honest, that's par for the course for me. But it happened. Miracle of all miracles. I finally have business cards that I love! Maybe it's 130 lb cardstock or the rounded edges or the vintagey vibe of the pencil graphic. Or perhaps it's the combination of mint green and raspberry that I adore. To be honest I don't know what it is, I just know that I love it. But just to be sure, I waited 6 months to write this post and unveil my cards to you. That's about 5 months and 3 weeks longer than any other design lasted!

Just My Type

I'm pretty sure this collaboration was made for me. Fashion and fonts; the two things I love most coming together. 

These amazing graphic tees created by type foundry and design studio House Industries for the Uniqlo women's collection are right up my alley. House Industries is known around the globe for their creative and impactful use of type. The studio has created original letters, numbers, symbols and patterns exclusively for the new Uniqlo line, which is available here. Almost all of the pieces have soldout online, but you might still have some luck at the brick and mortar stores. And even though I sort of want them all, I have managed to narrow down my list to the picks below.
