The constant drizzling of rain leads me to think that Spring is officiall on its way! But I’m still not sure because it’s so cold outside! In any case, raindrops lead me to… think of umbrella fashion! Umbrellas are accessories too, right? Currently, my umbrella of choice has been a clear umbrella I found on ebay a couple years ago. But that was before I found pareumbrella, a company located where else, but Sunny Seattle!
So which one should I get?

I was flipping through my How magazine last month and in their featured books section saw this: The Hand Job  and had to snicker at the name.  I’m always on the lookout for graphic design books for my brother (graphic designer) but this one I was thinking about getting for myself!  Take a peak inside:

The book is all about how corporate companies are going back to the hand made type in their advertising and design.  Intriguing, no?
