Pop Culture Coloring Books

I’m officially launching this year’s Holiday Gift Guide on Monday, but I thought these fun pop culture coloring books deserved their own post. I mean, since coloring books are the newest adult trend and all.

England-based artist and designer Mel Elliott is the creative genius behind I Love Mel, her online shop that includes her awesome coloring books. I love the pop culture bent of each book and how there’s something for everyone, like Girl Crush, SWOOOOON, Ryan Gosling and Eddie Redmayne.

Are you picking up crayons these day, friends? Which coloring book is your favorite? xoxo
