Designer Water: Paul Smith for Evian
I can't wait to get my hands on this Evian water bottle, created by the fashion legend Paul Smith. I'm a huge fan of the British designer, perhaps best known for his signature, colorful stripes on all manner of apparel and accessories, fragrance, tableware, even notepads, and now, bottles of water.
Smith has been drinking Evian since he was a child, and in Evian's promotional video seems pleased as punch to be their 2010 designer. (Christian Lacroix designed the bottle for 2008 and Jean Paul Gaultier for 2009.)
Evian's accompanying campaign, "Live Young" certainly meshes with Paul Smith's childlike curiosity for the world around him, and the bright swirls of color that adorn the neck of his bottle could easily be thought of as playground graffiti a la Harold and the Purple Crayon.
Which brings me to the five cool bottle caps the designer created to top his new bottles. If you don't already have a bottle cap collection, you'll want to start one for sure.

Looks really cool, both the bottle shape and the colourful strips. It’s a step forward from the traditional glacier pictures on the bottles. And that works so much in their favour.
Everybody has seen the glaciers and crystals, but if this colourful and stylish thing stands between other water bottles on the shelf, it will get noticed (and appreciated, I imagine) without a doubt.

Cute design. Just right for holding a sunflower or small bouquet. I'd accept a cast-off from someone, but I'm way too cheap to actually buy it. :)
