I wish I would have known about the Sailor Cocktail Series pens, years ago. The Sailor Blue Lagoon is one of the prettiest pens I've ever seen and apparently a whole lot of people felt the same way, because that beauty is gone for good. Luckily Tequila Sunrise was not. I think it's safe to … Continue reading Sailor Cocktail Series: Tequila Sunrise
This brand caught my eye while I was scrolling instagram. They hit most of the right buttons for me. They're made in both B5 and A4 sizes. They're bright and colorful.

The notebook that everyone seems to be waiting for. The Hippo Noto by Squishy-ink. I can't remember where I first ran across this notebook (probably instagram, like everything else).
