Bags. Bags. Bags. I think I should sign up for bag rehab. I don’t see any other way to avoid keep dreaming, drooling and longing for so many bags in any given moment. I’m starting to loose my mind and my grip on my poor credit card. Until I find a proper rehab center let’s keep the party going: 1. Madewell‘s canvas zip tote is a white beauty. 2. “Kate Spade Saturday” makes things a little bit complicated because of their: 2.1 small top handle satchel 2.2 the weekender bag (it’s zippered shoe compartment is CRAZY!) and 2.3 half circle satchel. 3. “The New Domestic” Bon Journey has the right amount of yellow and room. Well, that’s all for now… but not for long.

When I read about the Mondrian Cake I knew that I should be visiting the SFMoMA. Some will visit a museum for the art and me… I’ll be going there for the cakes! Well… not all the time but this time. And yesterday after eating it, and before that staring at it, I had to explore how the magic unfolds. I guess that Caitlin Freeman, the one behind this artsy cake, had a feeling that we all need to know how it’s done so… take a look or even better (depends who are you asking), buy the book and make your very own version!

Let’s keep this one short and simple: I WANT (scratch this) I NEED YOU IN MY LIFE… like a week ago!
I don’t really know how this is going to work out but I know for sure that my life won’t be complete without this black and white beauty by Cambridge Satchel with the help of fashion designer, Chris Benz.
And… with that being said I’m also dreaming about you too.
I know… I’m a Cambridge Satchel monster!

Since I live in a big city now, I came to realize that by taking public transportation there is no much room anymore for all my oversized bags. I know I can’t live without them and I probably won’t stop buying them but for the time being, it’s time to start paying attention to all the small bags that I haven’t even looked at before for more than a second. And when I say “pay attention”, you know I mean “let’s buy!”. In my wishlist at the moment are these four handsome bags: The Compact Bag (which is on the top of the list), the Essex Messenger, The Essex Minibag and the Juice Run Bag.
If it was up to you, which one would you choose?

If you follow my Facebook or Twitter, you can’t miss the fact that summer and beach days are all I talk about (it always comes with a sprinkle of coffee, dessert and some more sunshine). I can’t help myself but daydream of my next vacation with white sands, turquoise water and lots and lots of sun! So… when I bumped into Willow Know’s scarves my first reaction was: I guess there is someone else in this world that knows exactly what’s important in life. Yep, beach days! I don’t know if it’s just my wild imagination but these scarves are what a perfect day at the beach should look like. And if I need to choose my fave three, it’s super easy: one, two, three.

I sure miss my Shopping Breaks! It feels like ages… Once a friend of mine said to me that since I began writing DesignBreak I don’t shop as much. I guess there’s something true about that. It feels like once I write about a design, I don’t necessarily need to buy it! Don’t get me wrong, I still love to shop but not as much as I used to… And these days my wish list is all about stationary and other office supplies that make me happy! I’ll tell you more about it in a few weeks but until then, let me share with you my obsession for Julia Kostreva’s bright and colorful daily planners and notebooks. FYI, This yellowish piece of heaven definitely needs to be mine!

As I’m in my final days as a 33 year old, I feel like it’s the right time to write a new wish list… You never know who reads my blog ;) After going through the list, I noticed that most of the writers are some of my all time favorite bloggers and with that being said, my MUST HAVE books are: 1. Pia Jane Bijkerk’s My Heart Wanders for all those hopes and dreams that can become a reality. 2. The Wonderful World Of Fifi Lapin for the most adorable bunny and her impeccable chic. 3. Joy Cho’s Blog Inc. for the love of blogging. 4. Jennifer Causey’s Brooklyn Makers for the love of designers of all kinds. 5. Katie Quinn Davies’ What Katie Ate for the beautiful pictures cause let’s face it, I can’t cook!

My polka dot fever is unstopable at this point. After spotting the perfect polka dot satchel, it’s time to switch gears and move on to the next polka dot perfection. And by saying perfection, I mean just that! How can I resist such beauty?

On a side note: If you know of any other extra special spotty items that I need to add to my Pinterest Dot.Dot.Dot Board, now is the time to alert me.

It’s been too long since I wrote about a book that I’m super passionate about. Now is the perfect time to tell you all about I <3 Stationery by Charlotte Rivers. I mean, who doesn’t LOVE stationary?! Since, I’m trying to find my very own voice in the sea of stationary, I found this book extra inspirational. From screen printing, to letterpress to digital Illustration to calligraphy… You’ll find it all in this oh so whimsical book.

You are all familiar with my bag obsession, so it’s only fair that I’d introduce you to my scarves obsession as well ;) And yes, I have two fully stuffed drawers and one happy shelf full of scarves (!!!). With that being said, I’m super excited for my brand new scarf… Which one will it be? I’m not really sure yet, but it sure is among these pretty ones: 1. The Deborah Dot Scarf for it’s mad blue colors 2. The Done and Done Storyteller Scarf, for it’s yellow typography 3. The Sunset The Mood Scarf, for it’s dark vibe 4. The Sights & Sounds Storyteller Scarf for it’s Californian guidebook 5. The Girl about Town Scarf (that’s an easy one) for it’s NYC map!

Sometimes all I want is to start everything from the beginning. Have a fresh start with no baggage, no accessories, just four walls and a limitless budget to buy as many white object as I want. It’s a bit strange, but when it comes to my home, I like things to be as simple and as quiet as can be. At least for now, I’ll settle on fantasizing about my next white spree with three ceramic beauties: 1. Enchanting Juicer, cause I like my lime being juiced by a cute dwarf 2. Verdant Canister, for it’s floral texture 3. Milk Bottle Measuring Cups, just because 4. Mimic Cheese Board cause I like cheese, duh!

I’ve been a big fan of Orla Kiely for a while now, but only when I sensed the yellowish breeze coming out of her latest collection, I knew it’s time to buckle up and start saving! BUT on a bright note, the Jewish New Year is less than a month away so any of you, my loved ones out there, who want me to start my new year with a stylish-happy vibe, right here is where you should start looking: 1. The Tarpaulin Print Tillie Shopper, caue it’s just perfect! 2. The Caramel Mocha Bag, with it’s yellowish trim and perfect button. 3. The Small Shadow Stem Book Bag and it’s spot on color combo. I can go on and on but I’ll make it short and sweet. 3 is such a perfect number ;)

If you, like me, have a thing for the ocean, you should add these super beautiful slices of the ocean to your sea of accessories.
I know, I know, it’s so hard to choose between the three of them but if I need to pick my fav right here and now, I’ll defiantly go with the light green one. Well, burgundy, cream or green… It’s not an easy thing to pick… but choices, oh these choices… we do love choices. Don’t we?

Houston we have a problem!
I’m not sure how many satchels a girl can have, but when it comes to a certain girl, the answer is obvious :)
This polka dot satchel needs to find it’s way to Israel.
What do you say, should I or shouldn’t I? I’m not sure, if your answer will make a difference, but than again I’m pretty sure you and I are made from the same material!

I’ve been dreaming about this neon oversized bag by J.Crew for a while now. To be precise, it’s all I ever think about these days ;)
Yep, thats me, the superficial me. BUT it’s so pink and so me, that I just have to have it!
Time to go press on this add to cart button.

Have a neon weekend, my bright breakers!
