Competition: please send us your picture before May 1st

Our first male contestant (!): Ryan van Lil.
Awesome style we see here, but from his e-mail it seems that Ryan is more eager to win a job at one of our stores than to win the Mimic Copenhagen bag. Just walk by one of our stores and fill out a "sollicitatie formulier" (job application form). Job openings come and go, so make sure to check our website every now and then.

Thanks for your great entry Ryan. Best of luck on your job hunt!

Competition: please send us your picture before May 1st

Here's another creative contestant: Anne Marijn. She writes us about her husband Petrovskj who cheated on her, now her life's in shambles. She has trouble sleeping, eating, drinking, taking showers or even getting dressed, for weeks now. The only thing she does is crawling up and tumbling down stairs. In this picture we see her crying, drunk and dying back in the outfit that she has not changed ever since. The only thing that might cheer her up is that fabulous Mimic Copenhagen star tote?
Great work Anne Marijn, hope you feel a little better already now that your picture is featured on our blog. Just keep your eye on it to find out who will win!

Competition: please send us your picture before May 1st


The big JUTKA & RISKA picnic competition is still ongoing! Some people misunderstood the rules to the competition: please send us a picture of YOU in your favorite outfit. So no pictures from other blogs or magazines ;-)

You can still send in your picture to jutkaenriskacompetition@gmail.com until May 1st (01-05-2011).












This week, we will be posting some of the inspiring entries we received so far: make sure you send in your own to win the Mimic Copenhagen star tote!

Here is Sarah's entry, a visual love letter to IKEA she writes... maybe that's where she bought her picnic gear? Now all she needs is the star tote to carry it around.
We love the color blocking! How about you?


OnStreet: Stephanie

Ici, c'est Stephanie de Paris... That's it for my French, I'm tres sorry ;-) Here's Stephanie from Paris (I guess you got that already) looking bright and shiny with her fluo FURLA bag. A great bag if you like to travel like Stephanie, especially in springtime. On top, it fits perfectly with all kinds of shopping bags as you see... Of course it's not only the bag we like, the whole look, your subtle mirrored glasses, the boots: Stephanie, thanks for adding some french flavor to our blog. Safe travels!


OnStreet: Mia Kovacevic

Meet Mia, she was shopping in our Antwerp store and was happy to model the ring she just purchased for us. On her quest for the Club Manhattan armor knuckle ring, she will soon visit our other stores. I hope you'll find it Mia and enjoy your shopping spree!

OnStreet: Elodie

Haarlem presents their favorite fashionable customer of the day: Elodie. She's from Haarlem, 15 years young, likes to combine vintage with new, some pieces from her sisters and her sisters boyfriends wardrobes. Tapping various sources, she tries to create a new look every day. We really like the color palette and the clash of all the different prints. You go girl!

Of course this clothing swapping is a very smart and affordable way to double the size of your wardrobe. I'm wandering: Do you also lend stuff to/from others? Or even share a wardrobe with your sister/ best friend? Who has the coolest stuff and what do you wear more often than it's original owner?
