Regular visitors have probably heard of this Danish brand: Junk de Luxe. Its another in the wave of Scandinavian designers along with other brands like Acne Jeans, Cheap Monday, Dr Denim, Nudie and WeSC. I mentioned it for the first time in an article about a shirt (I bought that particular style at the time, it’s great, and hasn’t shrunk! Tried and tested :D)

And fresh in this season (I kinda gave the game away in the editorial for this special): we can now wear Junk de Luxe jeans! They’re fresh in, I saw the first styles arrive at Le 66 in mid January. And I’ve just seen their pictures. This one’s the “Modomac”, which are waxed jeans (yes, there are more!) in a straight/skinny cut.

You get the “Junk” quality you’d expect, with a price tag of €100, which isn’t actually all that bad for a pair of jeans. They go straight into my Top 3 waxed jeans.

Exclusive to:

Or maybe schapskas on? To keep yourself warm, you need to keep your head covered! As you probably know: you lose a lot off heat through this part of the body. And this winter, if you want to get a head, get a schapska! It’s been on the catwalks quite a bit (in the latest fashion shows), comes from the north, and has some pretty darn practical fur lining and ear flaps.

But where can you find them?

• On this site (Chapellerie Traclet) you can find this cotton and rabbit fur schapska for €49, this other schapska made of leather and rabbit fur for €89 and this style made of sheepskin for €100
• On eBay, you can find this schapska made of cotton and rabbit fur (and at the same price – 49€) and other styles according to availability.
• At other big stores such as the le Printemps or even Tags: Accessories ¦ Galeries Lafayette ¦ Hats ¦ Le Bon Marché ¦ Printemps ¦ Schapska ¦ winter

During my last few shopping trips I came across this brand that Raider mentioned on the French-language forum: Junk De Luxe. You can see for yourself that all the good things people say about this brand are true by visiting their site. In particular about their unusual multi-pocket shirts, which are relatively inexpensive. There are a few on ASOS. And you lucky Parisians can pop into “Et Vous” or le Printemps to buy them. See the Paris Shopping Directory for more details ;)
