Simply Fab: Henri Bendel Fashion-Forward Snowglobe

Although getting stuck in the snow is no fun, it sure looks good on the Fabionista in Henri Bendel's 2007 Collectible Snowglobe ($48).

Although getting stuck in the snow is no fun, it sure looks good on the Fabionista in Henri Bendel's 2007 Collectible Snowglobe ($48). She's carrying more bags and boxes than she can handle, she's freezing despite her opaque tights, but she still looks put together and chic. If only it were so easy in reality. Wouldn't this be the loveliest addition to your workspace? Affirmative!

Casa Shops: Cerealart

I'd love to be an art collector, but sometimes the pennies just don't add up.

I'd love to be an art collector, but sometimes the pennies just don't add up. That's why I'm a huge fan of Cerealart, which has made the work of critically-acclaimed, internationally-recognized, contemporary artists more accessible to a penny-pinching audience. Cerealart is a sort of artist collective, which develops, produces, and distributes three-dimensional artwork in multiples.


Most of the designs are limited editions, and distributed through Cerealart, and through museums and galleries around the world. The thought behind it is that reasonably priced, three-dimensional artwork is a great vehicle for distributing ideas. Some of the noted idea-makers include Marcel Dzama, Takashi Murakami (of Louis Vuitton fame), Allan McCollum, Yayoi Kusama, and Laurie Simmons.
