Love the colours from MarMar Copenhagen SS12

MarMar Copenhagen is a danish children’s fashion brand for children from 3 months to 12 years old. Founder and designer Marlene Anine Hamann Holmboe studied fashion design at the Danish Design College whilst also having her 3 children, Sebastian then the twins Frida Marie and Anna Oline. When Marlene graduated she began designing for different Danish children clothing brands before founding MarMar Copenhagen in 2008. Her 3 children are probably her main source of inspiration but also vintage books, movies and photos. MarMar Copenhagen is also working towards a sustainable future, using organic materials and create Fairtrade clothes.
The Spring Summer 12 feature some fantastic colour combinations and comfortable yet chic styles. We especially love the navy knits and also the lemon yellow Dua dress. MarMar Copenhagen is available through online shop Nordic Kids.

MarMar Copenhagen AW10

One of our favourite brands, danish children’s fashion label MarMar Copenhagen, are about to send out another stunning autumn winter collection to the shops.

With a goal to achieve toned down elegance for children, where romantic appearance and sharp graphic prints are the contrasts the label strives to offer a window into a world of fashion for little people that creates its own subtle style statement.
With detailing restricted to only the most important elements and muted colour tones, it can almost come as a surprise to find an eye-catching twist in their collection. MarMar Copenhagen is contrasting mix of contemporary functionalism and classic vintage.

Sadly I haven’t been able to find MarMar’s beautiful design pieces in the UK, only their basic wear. Please let me know if you know where to find soft cotton prints, subtle coloured knits, funky leopard leggings and romantic fluttering tutu’s.
In other words, MarMar is one of the brands that make me look so forward to visit Copenhagen in February!

Boys will be Boys with Mini A Ture

I think we just have to face it, the selection of clothing for boys is not as great as the selection for girls. It has become a lot better, but still we can get tired of cargo pants and stripy and printed tees. It’s hard to find boys clothing that really stands out.
The Scandinavian designers are really striving to do something with that, by using the highest quality fabrics (and of course organic cotton where possible and Fairtrade) with a lot of attention to details. They take pride in making clothes allowing children to be children. The clothes are fun and playful yet functional and comfortable, something active boys knows to appreciate.

Moose T long sleeve top from Mini A Ture is a good example of what cool, trendy tops should look like for boys. A cut out shape of a grey moose’s head on a vibrant blue background to the right of the tee, available from Nest. Oh! And did i mention it’s on sale for only £11? ;)
Pair it with jeans from MarMar Copenhagen (available from Nordic Kids), belt from Rebus and rough leather shoes from Bisgaard.
