MYRORNA

onsdag 29 december 2010 § 2

Myrorna has 11 stores in Stockholm and a total of 30 stores in Sweden. It's a commercial organization dealing with recycling. The goal is to create an economic surplus for the Salvation Army and their social work.

Myrorna does not buy clothes but accept donations from individuals and businesses which are later sold in Myrorna's second hand stores. Other important goals are to provide job training unemployed people and reducing resource consumption in the community through active recycling efforts.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to take pictures inside the stores but below you'll see a collection of what we found and brought home :)

We visited both the store on Hornsgatan 96 and the one in Skärholmen Centrum which has a large stock of vintage furniture. U bought an amazing coffee table that I wasn't able to photograph as she already covered it in work :)


The popular "mud" color seen everywhere this winter can also be found second hand...OF COURSE



A dream of a weekend bag. DREAM.


A madonna and cute summer clogs (made in Sweden of course)

The perfect gipsy blouse!




Navy blue tappered trousers
(need to make some adjustments but otherwise perfect)


And last but not least, U found a red 80's belt :)

ROST

§ 0

When going second hand and vintage shopping in Stockholm, Södermalm is the main area. Stylewise it could be compared with Raval and Borne in Barcelona, with many bars, small shops and "trend-forward" people (I'm using quotation marks since everyone in Stockholm think of themselves as trend forward).

Anyways, One of the stores in Södermalm is Rost. It's owned by a couple that has gone through all market places in the world to fill their store with vintage goods just for you. The store is quite small compared with the volume of garments sold, but this also makes it more interesting.

If you need to find something extra special for New Years, this is where to look!







U fell in love with these newspaper trousers but unfortunately they were a bit to short :(

New Years treat?

lördag 11 december 2010 § 0

Today we visited the monthly held fleamarket in Barcelona! Lots of people had signed up to sell their clothes and lots of people came to buy them. The current adress is C/ Ali Bei 120 (Metro Marina) and it's the first time its held here. Prices were between 1-20 euros, depending on condition/brand etc.

I'm definently going to try to sign up for next month to sell some of my things so keep your eyes open! Sorry for the quality on some of the pictures below, I took them with my blackberry...




G and B with their bargains :)


And finally: Me in Humana fur coat.
