Strumpet & Pink.
Her rich attire creeps rustling to her knees.
The Hottest Tagline Ever award goes to Strumpet & Ink. Their knickers aren’t too shabby either. Definitely something to reserve for that special occasion.

Chocolate Editions.
Chocolate Editions got its start in Mary and Matt’s kitchen. Now a full line, inspiration credits go to rugby shirts, works by Sol LeWitt and David Hockney, and Neapolitan ice cream – have all been reimagined as chocolate. {via Simplesong}

Dress-Up Band-Aids.
These bandages from Cynthia Rowley remind me of that episode of the Cosby Show where Claire breaks her ankle right before she and Cliff are supposed to square off against one another in a Huxtable family fashion show. When the big night rolls around she puts a bedazzled paper lunch bag over her cast to jazz things up and, natch, wins. Long story short, heal in style.
One dollar from the sale of each tin will go to Design Ignites Change, an organization that engages high school and college students in design and architecture projects that address social issues in their own communities. {via Oh Joy!}

Sugar Cones.
The cone is usually my favorite part of the ice cream experience (with all that melty sweet ice cream inside – yum), but for these porcelain Sugar Cones by Virginia Sin I think I’ll make an exception.
