My Birthday Present!

It was my 21st birthday on the 19th February and my parents got me a 13 inch Macbook Pro! It's really supposed to be used for when I'm on my year in industry (it will be impossible to drag my iMac around!) but I couldn't resist taking it into university today. The glowing keyboard and Apple logo is amazing!

I also decided to treat myself to a bag specifically designed for the 13 inch Macbook Pro. It's a bag designed by Ally Capellino and her bags give us a chance to carry our macs in a protective yet stylish way. I got the Satchel in Charcoal. Check out her selection of laptop bags on her website.

Free People Graphic Design

I regularly check the Free People website just to look at the ever-changing Graphic Design. I’ve always been a fan of biro art and I think the biro typography used for the website gives the brand a young and quirky image. It’s very reminiscent of biro design by Billie Jean.

This Free People store sign is very similar to flocked/baroque and rococo pattern design, influenced in my cover design for my Illustrated Book.

Check out the Free People website now; there’s a really cool rolling slideshow of fashion shots on a photograph negative strip.
