Moleskine Luggage Tags // Accessories // Design P*rn
How pretty are these? I hate luggage tags, and genuinely don’t use them. I know I should but *crosses fingers and avoids tempting fate* my self and my luggage have never parted company. It has once or twice gotten a slightly later flight than me but otherwise I’ve kept it close. However these lovelies by Moleskine may make me change my mind. My morning stroll through design and fashion blogs spotted these on Cool Hunting, a frankly brilliant website for all things well cool.
They are available online at Moleskine in the UK, US and beyond. For some odd reason I was taken initially to the Italian site. They’re priced at £8.50 each and are available in a wide range of colours. While you’re there checking them out have a bit of a mooch around the site, it’s easy to navigate and the products really aren’t that expensive. Smythson may be perfect for stationery, but these notebooks are beautiful and of great quality. As designer sketching on the go it’s crucial to have something to hand to note down ideas and inspirations. A trick I definitely need to improve on.
Though when it comes to sketching accurate and proportional ideas you can not beat Fashionary. A product I think should be on every fashion students required book list. I’ve been using mine for months and they were recently covered by Fantastic Man so you know they’re brilliant. Combining a library of terms, styles, buttons sizes, stockists, contacts as well as very faintly highlighted figure outlines, the sketchbook provides a great tool for any designer. Not only that but they’ve already launched some fantastic collaborations such as the one above with the very brilliant East London design team at Sibling (for whom my love is well known).
So there you have it, brilliant luggage tags, Smythson the home of stationery, lovely notebooks and the ultimate fashion sketchbook all in one post on Friday morning. What more could you want?

Go on talk dirty to me, Moleskine, Fashionary, Smythson. Oh yes! I won’t lie I love me some high quality stationery. I also won’t lie this book would be pretty full.
