the perfect cal for me

I always forget everything, and i’m always late. Never got the hang of electronic calenders, you know, on your computer and/or cellphone. I still prefer the paper ones, although they are always in book shape, which means you have to open it to see what’s in it! Something i’m not very good at either.

Now Christiaan Postma has designed the perfect agenda for me! Huge and very simple! Too bad this doesn’t fit into my purse …

barbie doll jewelry - by Margaux Lange

I’m not equally thrilled about all items … but i absolutely love the idea!

These i would definitely wear!

search

You know what would be THE invention of the century? A search button for household purposes!
You know … one of these: search.jpg, but then to find any kind of object around the house. I’d be willing to spend a fortune on this! So, if there is someone out there working on something similar … give me a sign! I’ll beta-test the thing for you!

galoshes reinvented - SWIMS

swims_galoshes.jpg

The funny thing is, galoshes always were overshoes … but i’ve never seen anyone actually wear them as overshoes. Where i come from (a wet country), they are an easy substitute for wellies. Their place is by the back door and they come in very handy to go do something quickly in the garden, or take the garbage out.

It’s also no surprise to me that a Norwegian designer decided to give old fashioned galoshes another go! Can’t imagine them being of any use in dry and sunny countries …

What’s your experience with this footwear? Please tell me, i’m curious.
