Love: Book Crush

  
  
I am in love.

With these books.

For the longest time.

I first saw them at Anthropologie a couple of years back. I probably won't read them, but I want them on the bookshelf or the console. They just look amazing together.

Coralie Bickford-Smith designed these covers and she did an awesome job. These are the classics reinvented. The covers are made from embossed canvas... no dust jackets. Beautiful.

She also did the design on this series, and played with black and white on metallics.

Here's another remake of the classics. This time by White's Fine Edition Books.

Look at how cheerful the colors of these Puffin Classics are. They're for kids.

I am on the hunt. Soon, you'll all be mine.


  

Fashion: Target Clothes

  
  
Hi readers. I am kinda back. I will try my best to post as often as possible, but I'm not sure if I can do it everyday. It's been a bit more than two months since I gave birth to my lovely little girl.

My fave store in the whole wide world, Tar-jay, launched a designer series of their GO International fashion line featuring world-renowned fashion designers such as Rodarte and Zac Posen. The line currently carries a limited number of women's dresses that are well-priced.

I got a Rodarte dress for less than $50. No, it still doesn't fit perfectly post pregnancy. But I bought it anyway. It's going to be my target size (no pun intended).

For the summer, Calypso St. Barth teamed up with Target for a bunch of cutesy stuff. It's like a mommy-and-me collection. I usually get a little over-the-top when it comes to baby/toddler clothes. I got Baby A different pieces in a variety of sizes so I can enjoy seeing her with CSB's cuteness.

Adorable. Absolutely adorable.
