We’ve always had hearts for BAGGU, but their spring line has me crushing even harder. I love that they’ve branched out from the (still awesome) reusable Nylon bags, and into leather pouches and canvas cases for valuables and tiny treasures. The new, bright colors totally remind me of water balloon fights in the park, dripping Popsicles and Wang Chung. If you live in San Diego, Pigment has a decent selection, but you can also order via the World Wide Web or email them to find a store near you. Dear other bags: I like BAGGUs more than you.

Lest you think we’ve not been showing enough East Coast love, here’s what our buddies at Orange & Park have been up to. There’s lots of colors and designs available, but here are two that I am particularly digging.

Illustration is hot shit right now. Two weekends ago, evian took live-tweeting to a whole new level by providing illustrated coverage of South Beach’s Wine & Food Festival and now Vans is debuting their Vault line with an illustrated lookbook. I don’t know about you but I’m liking this trend.

If and when Sexy Sweaters starts selling some gear, there are going to be so many new sweater addictions, myself included. It was quite difficult to choose only two to show you, so go and and give it a look-see. What are your faves?

My iPhone has served double-duty as a watch for longer than I can remember but for some reason, my wrist has been craving attention of late. This Citizen men’s watch caught my eye but would love to hear your recommendations.

Not that I have any firsthand experience, but cracking a cymbal in the middle of an epic drum solo must bite the big one. A worse calamity, however, would be disposing of these magical music memories. That’s where Chime Designs takes the stage. Owner Leslie Barrett handcrafts unique earrings, necklaces, bracelets and belt buckles from recycled cymbals, breathing new life into old beats along the way. I’m feelin’ the rhythm, how ‘bout you?

Scope their Facebook Page for future craft fair and trade show appearances.

Mandatory I Love You Day is coming up fast, but I wanted to share some rad posters by 3 Fish Studios in case you want to proclaim your love for your favorite state (if it’s California or Oregon). This is just a small sampling of prints I dig in their store from video game controllers, to street signs and food trucks. And if you happen to be local to SF, these guys offer Linocut Printmaking Classes where you can turn your favorite images into prints. How can you say no to DIY?
