Sky Umbrella

What’s better than a classic black umbrella? Tibor Kalman’s Sky Umbrella, that’s what. No matter how rainy it is outside, blue skies are somewhere overhead – always a good reminder. MoMA Design Store is celebrating its 20th anniversary right now by running a contest on how to style the iconic piece. (Ironically I snapped these photos under clear skies, less than 12 hours after an entire week of storms and tornadoes.)

PS: Use the code “SKY20” for 20% off all versions of the Sky Umbrella from today (4/17) through April 30th!

Disclosure: This is not a sponsored post. The MoMA Store approached me about styling a Sky Umbrella to celebrate its anniversary, and I accepted because I love both the product and the establishment. All opinions are my own.

Light As a Feather

These gorgeous over-sized 36 x 36″ 100% silk scarves from Fieldguided are rocking my world. An ice cave, a mountain, Venus, and a meteor (my favorite) can be worn a zillion different ways or even hung on a wall. Not to mention how black and white go perfectly with just about whatever else you’re wearing. (Photography by Anja Verdugo.)

DIY Disco Ball Helmet

PHOTO + PROJECT: instructables

The ultimate blinged out project? A disco ball helmet of course. Now they’ll see you coming on your bike a mile away (just be sure and use acrylic mirror instead of glass)!

Rubber Band Jewelry

PHOTO: evie s.

Evie is one of my very favorite DIYers, she never fails to leave me inspired. She creates in a way that’s not to make something that already exists for less (although I love those projects, too) but to think up and share something new. And I swear her well is bottomless. I’m already mildly obsessed with her latest – rubber band jewelry. Completely genius!

Polli Jewelry

It’s always a fun surprise to spot work from someone I posted about awhile back, like Polli’s current line of jewelry. It’s full of abstract sass, especially the wooden pieces which I can just imagine myself wearing all over town this summer!

OLDgOLD Boutique

What keeps you going back to certain shops for more, more, MORE? For me it’s individuality. The promise of unique pieces that are going to make me giddy with delight and longing. And in the case of OLDgOLD Boutique, killer rings.
