Who doesn’t remember the excitement of a temporary tattoo on a bubble-gum wrapper; a flaky image that you would carefully apply to your skin with a damp cotton pad stolen from Mom’s makeup table? Today’s temporary tattoos use vegetable dyes, a layer of glue similar to the kind found in Band Aids, and look better and are more colorful than ever before. The idea of design tattoos will generate child-like enthusiasm in everyone, as it did with the top-notch designers who participated in this project.
谁不记得用泡泡糖包装纸做一个临时的刺花，或用从你妈妈化装台上偷来的湿棉花在皮肤上做一个小酥饼造型时的激动？现在的刺花用植物染料和一层类似于邦迪一样的胶水制作，看起来比以前更好，更鲜艳。设计刺花的想法将激起每个人孩子般的童心，就象参与这些作品设计的顶尖设计师一样。

The international fashion police is a force to be reckoned with. Armed with a seemingly endless list of rules, it dictates all the do’s and don’ts and acts as both judge and jury in dealing with those guilty of committing a crime against fashion. But while some of the rules that are enforced by the fashion-conscious are nothing short of ridiculous, others serve more as words of wisdom that can prevent people from committing a fashion faux-pas.
This book contains fifty-one rules – like ‘Dress Your Age’, ‘When in Doubt Wear Red’, ‘Shoes and Bags Must Always Match’ and ‘Never Wear Tights with Open-toed Shoes’ – which can be twisted, broken or ignored altogether. Rest assured that whichever side of the fence you sit on in this whole fashion rules debate, you’re bound to find this book a source of inspiration, comfort or joy.

Advertising. It’s been called the greatest art form of the 20th century, as well as the biggest evil man has ever produced. Whether or not you believe in a thing called ARTvertising or are of the opinion that advertising, along with branding and marketing, is downright diabolical, you’re bound to find this book a source of inspiration.
We’ve collected and researched a total of 51 rules, including ‘The Medium is the Message’, ‘Make the Logo Bigger’ and that old favorite ‘Sex Sells’. All the great ad men and women make an appearance, sharing their thoughts and insights. The aim in making this book was not to list all the rules that a budding copywriter or marketer needs to adhere to. Nor did we want to decide which rules are indeed ridiculous and which are valuable words of wisdom. Instead consider this book a source of comfort, joy or good old fun.
