Pink Blog

I have walked past Karim Rashid’s showroom in New York City many times, and I always figured he was a bright colors kind of guy - there’s always lots of lime green around, particularly at Nooch, the restaurant up the street designed by Rashid. But it turns out he actually has quite a [...]

This nifty little gadget is cool: the Solio portable battery for any device. The bonus is that in addition to loading its battery off the wall charger, it can also gather power as a solar device. Charging from the regular wall outlet takes four hours, and solar charging takes eight to ten [...]

So this is the logo for the 2012 Olympics. It’s pink, or at least fuschia…but that is about all I can identify about it. Is this supposed to represent anything? Is it supposed to say anything? What is that dot in the middle for, is that an extension on the [...]

The Guardian had an article recently called La vie en rose that was critical of the pink-everything phenomenon. The article even refers to pink gadgets as “stomach-churningly girly” and suggests that women are being infantilized by having pink things.

I want to make it clear: this blog is going to be safe for work. There is an “Adult Items” category, but there will never be anything that isn’t safe for work. For example, the pink personal lubricant post had a picture of what looks like a perfume bottle. The picture [...]

It’s actually got pretty decent specs, unlike the other Hello Kitty laptop I mentioned a month [...]

I love Tarina Tarantino’s products. If you browse through the jewelry section, there is pink everywhere! A lot of it is subtle but there are some standout pieces like this skull set. The bracelet will set you back $100, the earrings are $70, and the necklace is $325, but they’re cute! [...]

I am torn between liking these rain boots and not liking them. For one thing, I do not like that ShopBop is charging $98 for them, I know fine wellingtons can be had for much less than that. And yet these have such a nice pink color, sturdy soles, and they come [...]

The company Think Products makes granola bars. At least I think that’s what they are…they might be energy bars instead. Anyway, their original creation was the thinkOrganic bar, and then came thinkThin, a high-protein bar “for an active lifestyle.” (Notice this is not a weight loss product.) Their thinkGreen bar [...]

CNet is a great source for reviews on products, but they mostly look at the features and functionality. It’s time to look at the fashion! Check it out behind the jump.
