Gosh, how is it mid-July already? I’ve been flitting about all summer here and there, and have completely forgotten to fill you in. Here’s some recent press / news / goodies:

Last month, I was thrilled to be a 2Modern Trendsetter and shared lots of lust-worthy picks with their fans.
Last week, IndyStar.com interviewed me for tips on pulling off an oversized sweater in the heat!
This week, What Women Make spotlighted my work.
In the next few weeks, I’ll be judging American Cancer Society’s More Birthdays Contest. (psst.. you can still enter)
Toward the end of July, I’ll be flying to Chicago to speak at TechWeek with some lovely ladies.
Next month, of course, I’m hosting a business/creativity course in San Francisco and speaking at Conference of Creative Entrepreneurs.

A busy summer, indeed! What do you friends have planned?

Remember when I shared that we had an awesome photo team at our house in April? The spread is officially available in the latest issue of ReadyMade Magazine, and we’re thrilled with the result! You can browse the photos online at ReadyMade Mag (or my Facebook album, I suppose), and read the accompanying story I wrote (where I compare renovating to child birth) right here.

Huge thanks, ReadyMade! What a pleasure to be in such great company.

Thrilled to be featured as a guest curator of spring product trends for Standard Magazine.

So flattered to see a full page spread in Indiana’s Metromix magazine re: my career, taste and style! Thanks, Metromix!

Interviewed re: HOW magazine’s newest rising star Meg Hunt: “She works hard and has an uncanny talent for color and pattern. I’d describer her work as colorful, quirky and a bit irreverent.”//

Arizona Republic, 2009

“Loechner’s own aesthetic is easily summed up: ‘I’m working on really focusing on the people themselves and not the work they’re producing. To hear people’s stories and to hear how they arrived at what they’re doing — that’s the inspiration.’”//

Indy.Com, 2009

I received a lovely surprise upon returning from Ireland this weekend— a new Readymade issue with Faythe Levine praising Design for Mankind for our DIALOGUE series, monthly magazine and much more.

Thanks, Faythe, and thank you, Readymade!

The sweet Jess Goldfond of Shiny Squirrel fame has posted a lovely interview with me, where I dish on Mankind Mag, creative energy and well… pretty much everything else.

Enjoy, and thank you, Jess!
