Very happy to find a fresh store in Den Haag, House of Poems. You get inspiration and shopping fever from more affordable brands like Gestuz, Dante6, Soaked in Luxury and Modstrom.
House of Poems, Prinsestraat 9 Den Haag
No not Paris, closer to home we have our own City Of Lights, Eindhoven. Honey and I found a cool shopping area, the triangle between, Bergstraat, Kleine Berg and Grote Berg. Here are our favourites.
Sonar: My personal favourite with brands like Filippa K, Bruuns Bazaar, Isabel Marant, Drykorn and Humanoid, I want it all!
Mensroom: Mens wear with brands like Denham Jeans, Diesel, JC Rags, Junk De Luxe and Björn Borg.
Magda: For a more “Scandinavian street” look with brands like Acne, Adidas Originals, Mads Norgaard, Wood Wood and Fred Perry, woman only.
Ynformal: A lifestyle mens store like it should be, very stylish, brands like Paul Smith, Hugo, Boss Orange, Drykorn and tailormade suits, a bit too classic for our taste, nevertheless a gorgeous store you normally only find in Rome or Florence.
Tired off all shopping you drink your capuccino and rose not in the Berg area, but close to Central Station. In the former lightning factory of Philips you find Usine, a cool cafe which give me the same feeling as HNY in Rotterdam.
Ooooh how I love Camper, they always manage to make the perfect shoe. I saw these Spring wedges today, and although I cannot walk on heels, these fitted perfect, I felt like Cinderella. Unfortunately they’re off budget right now but Honey is going to Barcelona next month, I hope they’re cheaper in their home country. Untell then I’m saving up every euro, because those will be the perfect souvenir.
Update: Honey got home from Barcelona with these beauties, I have the sweetest man on the planet!
I combined business and pleasure today in Utrecht. It’s been a while since I was there and I was pleasantly surprised about the collection of the old and new favourites..
Zolamanola, Mariaplaats 2; gorgeous shop with brands like Humanoid, Isabel Marant and Diesel Style Lab, beautiful colours together with supersoft leather shoes, boots, bags and belts. A bit too expensive but very, very inspiring, mens wear as well!!
Suus & Steil, Nachtegaalstraat 36; extended collection of Scandinavian brands like 10 Days, Becks Ondergaard, BZR and by Groth. I saw beautiful leather clogs today.
Fashion Lab. ,Korte Jansstraat 18; cool shop who supplies Filippa K, Mads Norgaard, S’nob, Bruuns Bazaar and Margit Brandt, a fresh style for man and woman. The real “fashion lab” is too cute, the shop a new favourite!
Emma B., Oudegracht 218; feelgood Scandinavian stuff for your home, Marimekko, Vipp, Normann Copenhagen and Ferm Living, I want to live in that shop.
