Lisa Frank x Your Digital Experience

I’ve been watching the Glitter & Greed: The Lisa Frank Story documentary series for the past few nights before bed (available on Prime).

The business story of Lisa Frank is interesting. But more than that, the series’s graphics and product images are so fun to look at. They sent me down some online neon-colored retro rabbit holes:

• Lisa Frank on eBay - I enjoyed scrolling through and looking at school supplies I recognized from my own 90’s experience

• Lisa Frank-inspired items on Etsy - Love seeing designers of today put their own spin or allow customization on Lisa Frank-ish items - like this one

• And straight from the Lisa Frank website, all the current Lisa Frank collabs were fun to browse - my two favorites are Posh Peanut and Crocs 

Spending time looking at bright colors visual treats (shout-out to neon gradient blends - you are the MVP of Lisa Frank’s world) and overall “cute happy things” was a much better antidote to the doom-scrolling I keep falling into lately.

So I took some time to bookmark other happy, bright-colored websites I can visit - not to shop really, but just as a visual treat for the eyes and to add some fun into my life when the world feels too much:

• Bando.com

• Essie.com

• Glossier.com

• Littlemissmatched.com

• Ohjoy.com

So happy Friday, and here’s to a weekend of creating your own joy - even if it’s just window-shopping online, enjoying bright-colored “cute happy things.” For no reason except to smile :)
