This super cool animated opening is from the French movie Les dents de la nuit which here in the states has been titled Vampire Party. The soundtrack song is Toy Boy, performed by the Stuck In The Sound. And just in case you are looking to watch the entire movie this Halloween weekend, just put it in your netflix que.

PRETTY PACKAGING marshall headphone
These Marshall headphones aren’t out yet. But judging by their packaging alone I would say they are going to be amazing! You can signup on their site to get a two day head-start on ordering a pair for the holidays before the rest of the world gets their hands on them.

FROM THE MADMEN creative department?
If you didnt’t get to watch the season finale of Madmen last night, don’t worry I won’t spoil it for you. But i did think this would be the perfect time to show you these amazing pieces I scored at an antique show earlier this year. It was one of those finds that you just couldn’t pass up, and since they were sold separately I had to haggle for a deal so I could take them both home.
They were actually folded in quarters for quite some time so I had them dry mounted on some acid free foam core so they would remain flat and wrinkle free. I just love the illustrations and thinking about the time that went into creating this work by hand instead of a CAD program. They are a great start to my madmen inspired workspace that is slowly coming along.

WEST ELM photo styling
I just love the new goodies that West Elm has put out for the 2010 holiday season. I mean, look at that owl lamp, it is just to die for! But, what I love most is the photo styling they are using for this new catalog. The photos are super sharp and show off the products in the most incredible way. I seriously put twenty things into my Christmas wish list this week from West Elm. As much as I do want it all, I always have to remind myself that buying that lamp, or pillow, or anything else for that matter, will not make my apartment look like the one in the picture. You know the one that no one lives in, with out the dog, or the take out for dinner, or the piles of bills. But maybe it can bring it just a little bit closer.

DESIGNS THAT ARE bananas
I actually had no idea this little contest was taking place because I would have put together a design myself. But i am pretty happy with the sea of winners that Chiquita has picked out. While I love their traditional sticker that I have grown up with I can’t wait to see some new designs in the very near future. Imagine how cool it would be to buy a banana with your art on it! You can check out all the winners over on their site.

I’m so excited that October is finally here! Fall is my favorite season, hands down! To celebrate I created a little wallpaper download so your computer can enjoy this crisp air even when it’s stuck inside. Download the 1280×800 version or the extra large 1920×1200 version. Happy Fall!
