I’m truly a sucker for beanbag chairs, so you can imagine the tease that was today’s sample sale on One Kings Lane. Sitting Bull is selling a wide variety of floral, striped, houndstooth and camoflauge bags, all perfect for casually chic seating. Unfortunately my apartment isn’t suited for one of these bad boys, as every square inch is precious. If you have room to spare though, this seems like an affordable and functional way to liven up a hardwood floor.
At my first job out of college, I worked as a pattern designer for women’s and children’s footwear. I think I must have churned out hundreds of patterns a year, and of that total, a good majority of those were filled with animals and insects . Kids love these little guys, as do parents, so you can imagine my delight when I stumbled upon Wee Gallery‘s sample sale on One Kings Lane today. Surya Sajnani’s lino cut style is very trend forward and quite reminiscent of Hugo Guinness and Perla Anne‘s illustrations. The cards are half off, and perfect for framing or for just letting someone know they’re special.
While I’m not currently in the market for a new bag, I stumbled upon these totes from Salt Box today while perusing One Kings Lane. They are apparently also for sale on Pop Deluxe. Reminiscent of Kate Spade’s signature look, they differentiate with their use of material and colorful plaid. It’s hard to go wrong when pairing classic geometrics with poppy color, a staple many home goods and fashion designers swear by.
Over the past few months, we’ve jumped on the online sample bandwagon. Though many of the wares from Gilt Group, Rue la la and One Kings Lane don’t necessarily bring us to hit the “purchase” button, today’s KUMA collection of teddy bears from Areaware, via One Kings Lane, have us in a buyer’s conundrum. This collection, designed by Ross Menuez, a Pattern Pulp favorite, is chock full of whimsically modern cuddly accessories. Additionally, the collection is comprised of organic cotton and printed with soy-based ink. Aside from the markdown, ease of purchase, and environmentally friendly ethos, we’re certain these bears will put a smile on anyone’s face, young or old.
