Fisk - Copenhagen

I came across this wonderful shop whilst wandering around the narrow streets of Copenhagen.  It's a combination of a cafe, fair trade shop and vintage boutique all brought together in a relaxed, stylish environment that is synonymous with Copenhagan.

Upstairs, classic Danish chairs and coffee tables sit amongst sustainable and fair trade products including toys, home-wares, food and eco balloons!  Downstairs there is a collection of re-designed vintage clothing - SKIFt - for men and women, together with vintage shoes, bags and jewellery. 

All proceeds from the shop help fund the work of DanChurchAid in an effort to overcome poverty and suffering in developing countries.

Fisk can be found at Sankt Peders Straede 1, Kobenhavn.

My favourite this week comes From Somewhere

From Somewhere
AW10/11 Collection

I am loving this top from sustainable fashion label From Somewhere.  The mix of colours and textures shows a clever design eye.  Created by up-cycling surplus fabrics from the high-end fashion and textile industry.  As From Somewhere says "From waste to want".  I want.  I want.  I want.
