I’ve moved! Introducing my brand new home on the web…

 

Update your blog RSS feeds, change your bookmarks,  and celebrate with me, people, because it’s moving day!

Sorry for the rather loud type, but I’m excited to reveal the new BarbraIgnatiev.com! Sassy, splashy and full of vibrantnosity, (not a word but that’s OK) it’s a place to get inspired and see what I’m up to art-wise and life-wise.

Loads of new projects and artwork on the horizon, so please join me at my new site and also sign up for my Museletter (aka “newsletter”) to get updates straight to your inbox.

Thanks for hanging with me here ~ now, update those links + subscriptions already!

Also ~ looking to do a giveaway on the new blog and you won’t want to miss it! What’re you waiting for! Go go go :)

Inspiration > Harajuku Lovers Prints & Bags

This is why I love Gwen. She knows the power of pretty, adorable print. I’ve been a fan of the Harajuku Lovers line ever since it launched in 2005. Yes, I have never really grown up.

You can imagine how much I freaked when I saw these bags at the store. Hoops! Love! Angel! Music! Baby!  Of course, I purchased what they had in stock ~ which, thankfully, wasn’t much. (This is the 50’s Girls print.)

I’m also in love with the line of makeup bags at Sephora. Tell me, how can one not feel elevated cute-wise when looking at them? Color and characters create POP.

PS: I might be away for a while. I’m working up a new home on the web! It’s going to be colorful, cheery and fully-featured, baby! I also have a few client projects in the hopper too. A busy, lovely time. <3

I’m not sure what I was doing in 2001

Ransacking your house is fun. You find weird things like a shirt you designed in 2001. It looks terrible and yet you rocked it for a time. In public.

I really don’t know what I was thinking. Clearly I was excited about drinking. (Well, I still am, let’s not fool ourselves. But now I get excited about drinking concoctions like hand-shaken  Laughing Buddahs.) It was printed pretty horribly at Cafepress and there’s some weird… overtones I didn’t realize until now. Oy.

No matter. Nothing Courvoisier XO Imperial can’t cure.
