The BritList: The Burger Bangle, Kitten Princess Leia and More
Happy Friday readers! It’s another sunny feels-like-summer day here in San Francisco, and we’re getting pumped for a weekend filled with robotics (Maker Faire is here!), absurd Bay to Breakers costumes and maybe even a little R&R. But before we close up shop for the week, it’s time for the BritList.
1. A Short History of Photographic Camera: Though the camera has definitely come a long way, it’s kind of amazing to see how similar early ones are to present day.
2. Ombre Dishware ($10): Don’t these dishes just make you want to have an outdoor dinner party, like, now?!
3. Parks and Rec-Themed Engagement Photos: How awesome is this? And this couple didn’t even have to go all the way to Pawnee to snap these photos — the city hall in the show is actually located in Pasadena.
4. Kanye West-Inspired Cake: Genius. Just genius.
5. Mad Men ‘For Your Consideration’ Emmy Campaign: These genius ads for Mad Men’s Emmy campaign would make Don Draper extremely proud.
6. Close-Up Portraits Taken Under UV Light: This series by Brooklyn-based photographer Cara Phillips celebrates so-called “flaws” by exposing them under UV light.
7. Kittens as Pop Culture Characters: You thought you saw the cutest thing on the Internet today. Then you saw this.
8. Burger Bangle: Need some arm candy? Er, arm comfort food??
9. Electrique D’Orsays ($208): If you’re looking for a comfy but stylish summer wedding shoe, look no further than these electric orange flats.
