The Detail.MGX Pendant Light

Filed under: Decor

Now here's a lamp that truly can't be copied or created by any other artist -- it's literally got designer Dan Yeffet's fingerprints all over it. In an endeavor to create something that represented privacy (or a lack of) he took his own fingerprint and stretched it over a sphere shape, resulting in a truly unique pattern of light shining out from between the channels.

At first I wasn't that crazy about this design because it looked like zebra stripes and I'm not one for animal prints. But once I realized it's fingerprints I like it a lot more! Funny how that works. The Detail.MGX pendant light measures 24cm wide (the sphere) and is available from Within 4 Walls for £1948.

Everybody's got a business card these days, even soccer mom's have them! It's just the easiest way for everybody, not just business types, to keep in touch and communicate sometimes.

Business cards from Shinebox Print are not only cute in their little box with perforated edges, but you can personalize them however you want by including your own pictures, graphics, layout and everything on the front and back. Of course you can get personalized cards from lots of places, but these are so much more artistic, and a little different. And if you like the idea but don't necessarily want business cards, Shinebox can make calling cards, coupons, or any number of other projects. Prices start at $150.

Kate Spade Palma Jocelyn, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags

The Palma Jocelyn Clutch from Kate Spade is unique - and not just because of the unusually bright choice of fabric. The clutch has a fold-over design with a smooth leather handle accented by Spade's signature gold studs. The opening of the clutch is secured with a zipper, making it quite secure, and it could even be carried as a small handbag instead of solely used as a clutch. Getting back to the print, the cotton-twill fabric has a tropics-inspired color scheme that really makes a big statement for a relatively small, slim bag (7 x 11-in). Price: $165.

A Very Pucci Birthday

Filed under: Apparel

As they say, what goes around comes around. And if you’re a fashion designer who has gone, come and gone around again by the time your label is 60 years old, then that’s a birthday well-worth celebrating. The Italian design house, Emilio Pucci, has issued a tank top in celebration of the milestone birthday. Pucci was first made famous by his swirling mid-century silk scarves, which were donned by the likes of Italian film queens such as Claudia Cardinale and Sophia Loren. The white and black top features a stylized screen print of a chic mademoiselle – the very vision of the lady of leisure and sunshine that once typified the “Pucci girl” in the early days of the label. Understated and simple, the stretch cotton jersey tee is matches anything from basic denim to a wilder Pucci print. This tank top is Pucci print for women who worry that they can’t pull off Pucci prints. Price: $245.
