In honor of Bre being on vacation, I thought it would be perfect to share some cute little screenshots from a collection of films by Gustav Johansson called Live the Language. Such a clever use of clean typography by Albin Holmqvist and gorgeous cinematography help the viewer learn some quick linguistic tidbits. Of course, now i’ll be hoping for little phrases to pop up out of nowhere to help me navigate my way around foreign cities! Even the timeline for each city is super cute, they always include trips to the market, shopping, getting lost, meeting new friends and enjoying the nightlife. The Paris one is by far my favorite, it’s so dreamy. You can watch all of these inspiring films here. Enjoy!

I would love to have this teal chair and that photo wall (with neon colors) from Sara Illenberger. Her apartment is beyond quirky and fun to look at. Better yet, you can see a whole video AND interview of her right here. Fun attitude = fun space.

I love the new campaign for Kate Spade, entitled “Give Colorfully.” There website has transformed into this bright and happy place that I honestly can’t stop looking at. What happy theme for this time of year. Check out their promo video, below. I promise you’ll love it.
