Your Good Fortune Continues!

We have Cop-Copine knit tunic in lush blue.

The Momo Good Fortune Sale is entering its second week! You can find deeply discounted, globe-spanning fashion, including (but not limited to!) these pieces from France, Denmark, Canada and the US:

From France, Cop-Copine’s “Madec” knit tunic – available in beautiful twilight blue.

The always-classic “Alveole” scarf from Saint James features shibori-style puckers and an “easy on, easy off” design. And, it’s on Good Fortune Sale in a variety of spring-ready shades.

Straight from Denmark is the “Siv” sweater by Just Female. With simple lines and a soft grey color, it plays well with anyone in your wardrobe.






















Kamik rain boots are made in the most ethical, eco-friendly facility around. The company even asks that you return your boots when you’ve worn them out so that they can recycle them into new boots. We have them in black, cheery yellow and grey.



From less exotic locales (although some would debate that) check out this two-way zippered cardigan from Los Angeles' Damask. It’s reversible, too!

Our Momo Good Fortune Sale includes the gentlemen ... the Momo Man has many options too! Here are just a couple:

Also hailing from L.A., Z.A.K. produces well-tailored garments made from the finest textiles. We especially love the elbow patch details on the “Crawford” shirt:

 Bridge & Burn hails from Portland, OR. A small, independent company that focuses on style with a Northwest flavor, they often feature plaids or check patterns, like the one found on our “Franklin” shirt.

Count the Ways to Count Your Days

As incredible as it is to contemplate, we are nearing the end of 2015.

Now, we know that everyone has calendars on their personal devices — computers, Smart phones, Google Glass (hahaha)...but there is much to be said for a lovely, old-school calendar. Momo currently has three unique and attractive options for you to choose from, two from local designers and the third from Japan.

In 2005, Ilee Papergoods designer Ja Teuber made her first ready-made product: her hand-printed month-by-month calendar. It was such a success that she continues to make these to this day. The attention to detail, beautiful prints and local/handmade appeal has made this a very popular gift — some fans make a tradition of buying one every year.

Another fun, compact calendar is “Type Riot,” designed and produced by Paper Hammer Studios (you can visit their shop on Second Avenue). Established by the delightful Ed Marquand, Paper Hammer set out to revitalize Tieton, located on the far western edge of the Yakima Valley. Today, a collective of businesses called Mighty Tieton has awakened this tiny town by connecting creative urban professionals with studio and production space, unused buildings and local production resources.

Perfect for your graphic designer or font-geek friend, this one also comes with a storage/display case.

Last but not least, another holiday gift favorite: linen tea towel calendars from Tokyo’s Fog Linen Work. How often does one encounter an item that is both completely practical and utterly whimsical? Not very, which is one of the reasons we adore these. Choose from DIY birds, cats in windows and a plethora of pears. Whatever your preference, mark your calendars for a stylish way to welcome the new year.

All, made of fine Lithuanian linen.
