This ad is so great. It was on T.V. while I was working, with no sound, and I couldn’t stop watching it. Amazing.

I love this awesome screen print from Simon Walker. It makes me wish I had two separate bathrooms just so I could use these.

Dimpled Beauty

Today I felt like some beauty tips, tricks, and inspirations were appropriate, but I’m not sure why. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that it’s 1:00 p.m. and I’m still in pajamas, unbathed, no make-up, and bed head.

I think this PSA is great because they took risks with using real people. Some of the lines seemed forced and at times the speakers look awkward, but that’s what can happen when you use real people to talk about their personal battles. And I think in the end that risk created a PSA that is heartfelt and powerful. Take a look:

This video by Celia Rowlson-Halls is so weird… and amazing… and beautiful… and uncomfortable. Please don’t watch this unless you have a full 8 minutes and 1 second because it is a piece of art as a whole.
