Writtenafterwards

permalink

Susie Bubble posted about Writtenafterwards and designer Yoshikazu Yamagata's special projects, and this giant bra and undies set was so incredible we had to re-post. Imagine driving through the country and coming across a truly humongous pair of grannie-panties blowing in the breeze. It would be enough to make you wreck your car. (Via Style Bubble.)

Umbrella Pot

permalink

The Umbrella Pot works when rainwater, dripping off your wet umbrella, trickles down and waters the plant. What a great way to be green and lazy at the same time.

Crabs (the crustacean kind you eat) are one of summer's many pleasures. This crab ring from Frank and Easy, though, is something even the landlocked can enjoy.

Migh-T Pillow Bag

How many times have we been stuck in a plane, train or automobile and wished we had a cushy pillow for our head? Too many too count. Maybe we should just buy the Migh-T Dream Pillow Bag, and never have to worry about it again.
