Byte Me

Chloe GordonComment

I’ve always been obsessed with packaging. Obsessed. I don’t know if everyone is like this, I highly doubt it, but the way I see products is by their packaging. If my dad asked me to purchase pulp-free orange juice I knew exactly which color that specific orange juice packaging was. If someone asked me the name of the brand I wouldn’t know, but I would know exactly what color and shape the logo were.

In fact, I have this weird thing with colors. My mom loves to tell this story, so I’ll tell it here so it’s forever in the universe.

When we moved to Louisville, KY we wanted to paint the walls of our living room to very closely match the color of the curtains. We had these specific curtains in our last house so I was very familiar with them. When we got to the paint store to match the paint to them, my mom realized she left the curtains at home. I was able to go to the tan section of the paint colors (you know how they’re all lined up together on the wall?) and grab the exact shade of tan. She called me a color prodigy from that day forward.

I don’t think I’m a prodigy by any means; I do, however, think I view color and color theory a lot differently than your average gal. This means I’m definitely in the right field as a graphic designer…

All that being said, I want to introduce you to a brand that I recently discovered by way of Instagram. I was instantly attracted Byte Bars because of their packaging so reached out to see if they would be interested in partnering together. They said “yes”! Not only is the packaging to die for, but the bars themselves are gluten-free, vegan, and the perfect mini-sized for a snack on the go. My favorite flavor is far and away the choco-chip bar, but they are all seriously so great. Can’t go wrong, plus HELLO!! the packaging is cute enough to carry as an accessory.

If you’re in the market for a plant-based snack on the go, I highly recommend these Byte Bars! If you’ve tried them or try them, please let me know how you love them!

Graduation is right around the corner.. It’s such a bittersweet time of the year. On one hand, I am done with the first chapter of my life and get to start a new awesome college filled chapter, but on the other hand, I have to say goodbye to everything I’ve known for the first 19 years of my life. It’s weird. But because graduation is coming up, so are graduation parties. I’m starting to brainstorm what I want to get my friends so I decided I’d share some of my thoughts with you all in cause you’re wondering what you should get a friend, daughter, niece, or etc. 

Stella and Dot necklace What’s a better way to remember all your high school memories than wearing something around your neck and close to your heart. A cute and dainty necklace can be worn at all times, with any outfit, and is the perfect thing to take to college to remember everything great about high school.

Dormify pillow Having a cozy bedroom is so important in college, so give your friend/grad a pillow to help jumpstart the dorm decorating process. Dormify has millions of cute pillows to choose from that match tons of different personalities and styles. You’re guaranteed to find the perfect match. 

bando agenda College is a busy and stressful time, but having a cute agenda fixes all of those problems. Your grad will love this agenda and will be eternally thankful for it when she’s stressed out next year! 

urban outfitters tote bag A cute tote bag is definitely a necessity. Your grad is inevitably going to be lugging around books, papers, and her computer around campus so make sure she looks great when strutting around campus. 

jcrew night gown College is essentially a big sleepover, so a great set of PJs are definitely in order. This J.Crew nightgown is not one to miss out on! 

rifle paper co. grad card Of course, money is always a great option. Or a gift card, preferably Starbucks. But if you do go the money/gift card route, be sure to put it in an adorable card! Nothing’s better than good stationary. 

What are you buying for your grad? 
If you're a grad, what do you wish to receive? 

Thanks for reading!
