I dutifully made the trek out to a couple of local Target stores this morning in hopes getting my hands on the new Orla Kiely line. It looked like much of the tableware had showed up on the shelves before today, as much of the items were picked through already. I still managed to nab a few goodies though.
I first discovered Orla when I was in Tokyo a couple of years ago. I happened to walk into an Orla Kiely store in a shopping center there and could not believe my eyes. Patterns that were simple and bold yet classy. Deliciously colorful but not in a way that was too loud or distracting. Everything was of course way out of my price range, but I was thrilled to be able to take a small souvenir with me: a catalog that is a piece of art in and of itself. I pulled it out the other day for some inspiration and thought I'd share some pages with you.
Oh, and I'm on Twitter now!

I have a trip to Target coming up. I can't wait to see what they have.
I absolutely love orla kiely! It's nice that she's got a line at Target now - more people will be able to enjoy great design=)
I had no idea she had a target line. Must check it out if it's available in Australia.
I love her designs too, thanks for sharing the great catalogue pages ...
Lucky you! I’m green with envy ;) We don’t have Target in Sweden. And I love Orla Kiely!
