My office needs a serious upgrade. I’m not talking about a new desk, chair, or storage. I’m even happy with the paint on the walls (plum). No, I am talking office supplies. I’ve had it with boring note pads, black staplers, silver paper clips, yellow post-its, and Bic pens (no offense Mr. Bic). However, I am finding it to be a bit challenging to find truly fun items. And by fun, I almost always mean polka dot. Or pink. Or purple. Something cheery and happy.  I found a polka dot accordion folder that I am in love with and some cute notebooks. But I need more, more, more.  I’ve scoured local stores.  Someone needs to start an online store that only sells super cute office supplies. There are some fun things at SeeJaneWork.com, but nothing I have to have. SortingWithStyle.com also has some cute things, but again, nothing I bought (their mod dots file folders did catch my eye).

I bought these polka dot mugs in Italy and they make my mornings so happy! I have a thing for polka dots; I have a whole board on Pinterest with polka dot items.  Polka dots make me so happy. They are round and bubbly and cheerful. I once had a white t-shirt that had tiny little polka dots around the bottom hem. I slaved over that t-shirt, to keep it clean and white looking so I could wear it over and over again!

I usually like to buy things while traveling that are unique to that region or that depict or bring to mind the area. This time though, I bought these mugs just because I HAD to have them. I passed them in a shop window near our hotel every day in Sorrento. On our last day, I decided I needed them. The shop was closed! I almost cried. Fortunately it was just closed for the afternoon and was open again that evening when we walked by.
