A Touch of Red for Valentines Day




❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Cerise, Scarlet, Vermillion, Ruby — whatever the shade, red suggests passion, power, courage and determination. It’s the color of blood and fire, primordial life energy. In the Chinese culture, it’s the luckiest of all hues, symbolizing wealth and good fortune. And on Valentine’s Day, it’s a universal expression of love.

At Momo, we love red ... in perfectly appropriate doses. Never ones to be overly dramatic, we know a little goes a long way. So here, for your Valentine’s giving, a mini tour of our engaging accents. Of course, there’s more in store, so drop by and give us a browse. And remember, we’re always happy to wrap. 


Crimson Kimono: Head-to-toe accessories. A harp hair clip to hold the heaviest of hair, a silken brooch made by local lovely Thea Starr, and fabulous fun chirimen shoelaces for low or high tops. 

Dots right! Everyone loves i Ronni Kappos vintage glass jewelry. Handmade in Los Angeles, these modern classics are a sure hit. 

Red Letter Day: Check out our sweet selection, carefully picked by Mr. Momo, the fussy card guy. 

Red Hot: Goodies for the hottie in your life. Dried Hawk’s Claw chiles from Japan (a thoughtful gift matched with a suribachi mortar and pestle) and Seattle’s own Mama Lil’s pickled peppers. 

Lucky Belly: Do you love a foodie or a secret chef? Locally made tea towel with lacquered wood chopsticks from Japan make a tasty pair. 

❤️❤️❤️

Happy Galentine’s/Valentine’s Day!


Snowmageddon is finally melting, and Valentine’s Day is tomorrow! At Momo, we’ve braved the slush and are happy to be here for you. Whether it’s assisting in choosing a thoughtful gift or helping with artful and creative gift-wrapping – Momo to the rescue! Here are some quick ideas for your consideration:

Versatile Vessels: Founded in 1998 by Bo Jia and Alison Alten (a hapa couple, so Momo), Middle Kingdom produces porcelain goods inspired by classic Chinese designs, with a modern twist. These candy-colored mini vases are ideal gifts under $25 and our #1 pick for a sweet “Galentine’s” treat. 



Cotton Comforts: Designed and woven in an artisanal atelier in the South of France, Létol scarves are made of 100% organic cotton and given a final wash with “Savon de Marseille,” a traditional vegan soap that's been in use for over six centuries. Tastefully colorful, we love the heft and find ourselves wearing them throughout year. 



Unusual Adornments: If you’re leaning toward jewelry, Momo has you covered! With a plethora of styles and materials, and designers spanning from hyper-local Momo Girl Angela to Paris’ Trois Petits Points, we’re sure you can find the perfect something.

Cast sterling organic botanicals are delicately understated. 

Unusal stones are featured in a series of Little Teal earrings. 

Trois Petits Points lockets come in a rainbow of elegant colors. 
These are especially popular for  moms!

Natty & New: Brand new for Momo is Matinique. Direct from Copenhagen, this clothing line has been producing high-quality, stylish + modern clothing for over 40 years. Get your guy looking sharp from work to weekend.

Navy blue and white floral adds a little fun.
