When you are on the way through the old city of Amsterdam, walking by the old Centraal Station which is always your spot when you felt lost and need to navigate yourself again, looking for the first dutch fries, bars, and shopping centers, then you definitely going down to the famous Madame Tussauds at the DAM, where people walk by, shoot some photos of the typical dutch buildings, doves looking cute to catch some food and then, there you are – finally found something really good between all these puppets, darth Waiders, Vampires and other Spiderman carnies. You will find a great gallery with contemporary art, painting and installation: A gallery which is in my opinion very creative by using Words as the most powerful tool. When I was there, i really felt inspired. I can’t wait to see more of it on my next trip to Amsterdam.

 

 

5 Questions for a Shop: Opumo

opumo logo interview curated wares

It is not easy finding a really cool online shop who specializes in mens accessories. That is until we found out about Opumo (opumo.com). We love all the brands they are selling that we thought their buyer could read our mind. You can find all the essentials here from bags to cufflinks. The fact that they are carrying MISMO is enough to love them but theres more. One thing we look in a store is that the element of surprise in learning about new brands and we definitely discovered brands in opumo.com that we didnt know but directly put it in our must haves! So thank you Harry from Opumo for doing the interview

1. Tell me why your store kicks ass:

We have an ethos at Opumo that we don’t stock anything that we wouldn’t buy ourselves. It keeps buying for the store very simple- if we love something then we put it in the collection. So, for me the reason why our store kicks ass is because it offers all of my favorite brands and products. What makes it even better is that we get to share all of our most wanted products with our customers!

2. How do you want people to feel after shopping at your store?

I want people to feel like they have seen a lot of great men’s accessories and that they have chosen something perfect for themselves.

3. Name 3 brands that people should watch out for in the next season and why:

• Berg & Berg has got to be in this list. Based in Norway, minimalistic Scandinavian designs and some amazing new small leather goods to sit alongside their collection of ties and pocket squares.
• Mismo makes the list too. I have checked out next season’s collection and it’s awesome!
• WANT Essentiels de La Vie is a favorite brand of mine and I have a few pieces that I am going to get for myself as soon as they are available.

4. What is your current food addiction?

I cannot get enough of Haloumi cheese. Weird I know.

5. Name 3 songs that you have on repeat at the moment:

• Hungry For The Power – Jamie Jones Remix
• The Mole – Trentemøller
• Oh Well (Live) – Fleetwood Mac

Check out our favorite pieces from their store. They have a sick collections of MISMO bags but their TATEOSSIAN mechanical cufflinks and Kiel James Patrick bracelets are just insane!
