Jeannie is a true jack-of-all trades, looks forward to a day gone swimmingly, and finds joy in all things awesome. Brilliant art, rocking the renegade music scene, conjuring up haute designs, other people's hot designs, tasty salad, trashy magazines and unicorns are some of the many things she is passionate about.

    Love thyself

    Even unambitiously lazy folks enjoy feeling accomplished once in a while. Dutch design firm Studio Ditte offers up Reflection Medals, pendant medals with a mirror finish. Gaze proudly at yourself each day, upholding honor for tying shoelaces, good hair days, and waking up sometime before noon.
