Top it Off in Style

How to keep one’s head warm and dry in a rainy city that eschews umbrellas? Hats! Luckily for you, Momo has a new batch of wool New York Hat Company lids to keep your noggin toasty and rain-free. With four classic unisex styles, we are positive that you’ll find something you’ll love.

First up: super-soft wool berets. Timeless and stylish, one of our favorite hats for year-round wear. Pair one with our Saint James shirts for an ultra-French look. C’est si bon!

Available in red, black, charcoal, burgundy and navy.

Easy to wear and easy to pair, NYHC’s “Thug Cap” is available at Momo in black, sizes Medium – Extra Large.

 

One our most popular hats is the “Spitfire.” Sport a vintage look that is still relevant and cute! Available in black wool.

Another retro-cool look is the “Pub Cap.” We love how jaunty this hat is. Fully lined and fitted, Momo has this in charcoal, black and a Woolrich plaid.

This is a La Niña winter and we know what that means: rain, rain, and more rain. Pay us a visit soon and we can ensure that your head stays comfy and dry!

Glad for Dad

Dads have the annoying tendency to buy themselves the things they want before anyone else has the chance. Well, we at Momo can help you find a little sumptin’ sumptin’ to surprise Dad this Father's Day. Here’s a sample of gifts that we think he’d love:

For the Dapper Dad: Lorenzo Uomo fun socks from Italy. Your choice of fine merino wool or cotton ensures the ultimate in comfort.

Maybe Dad is more of a backyard grill master? A Hawaiian Kahala shirt will be perfect for warm summer evenings spent barbecuing.

Nothing says “Cool Dad” like a natty straw hat. We have two styles, both from New York Hat Co. (the oldest American hat manufacturing company)! Perhaps Dad is playful and a bit quirky? SumoFish shirts fit the bill to a tee.

What dad wouldn’t appreciate top-of-the-line personal grooming products? Billy Jealousy (winner of awards from Men’s Health, Real Beauty, Instinct, Motley and Esquire) is our go-to in this department. Momo has facial scrub, cleanser, moisturizer, aftershave and super slick shave cream as well as their signature shampoo and styling gel.

Happy Daddy’s Day!

Glad for Dad

Dad, Pops, Old Man, Big Daddy ... Sir — no matter what you call your father, call your father! It’s Dad’s Day, Sunday, June 19. And to show him that you appreciate everything he does, give him a little love from Momo.

For the Dandy Dada, Lorenzo Uomo socks from Italy and hats from family-owned and run, New York Hat and Cap Company.

Since he’s partially responsible for your good looks, make him look good, too, with a passel of products from Billy Jealousy. Pappy will love the smooth shave, pleasant citrus aftershave, hydrating moisturizer and his beaming new countenance. And we’ve recently added shampoo and gel to the line up, so he’s well-coiffed, as well. 

And we’ve no shortage of shirts, long-sleeves and short. Give Baba the comfort of natural fabrics like cotton and linen, so cool for our warming Northwest weather.

Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads and a big Mahalo for being Momo men.

Time to Get Your Warm On

With winter’s first gusts blowing out of the north, it’s time to think fast about ways to stay warm when you’re out and about. Momo is ready with cold-weather essentials to ensure that you remain perfectly snug in the upcoming chill. Let’s take it from the top.

Head First! Squishy and thick cable-knit beanies from New York Hat Co. will keep your noggin toasty. Momo has versatile black and charcoal grey.

From Japan, the ever-popular Beagle House beanies in both knit and jersey.

Neck + Neck: A Momo classic, the “Alvéole” (French honeycombed) scarf from Saint James. Compact, a cinch to slip on and off, beautifully crafted — one of our favorites.

Unisex lightweight cashmere scarves from Nepal are large enough to wrap around your neck multiple times yet sleek enough to stow in your bag ... all while excelling at keeping the chill and rain off of your neck. One of the many charms of cashmere.

Gotta Hand it to You: For everyday wear, we present 100% wool fingerless gloves from New York Hat Co. Thick and sturdy, these will last you many seasons. Available in light grey and black in size medium or large.

On the other hand, luxuriously soft Meg Cohen plush fingerless cashmere gloves are little ‘blankets’ of heaven for your hands (note: they make indulgent holiday presents).

This week’s nighttime temperatures will be hovering around freezing. Beat the cold front to the punch and stock up on cold weather cozies! Momo’s got you covered.

Aloha, Iolani

Momo Mama and Mr. Momo are back! Back from the tropical paradise known as Hawaii, that is. Nor did they return empty-handed. Fresh from Oahu, Momo has a new batch of Iolani clothing.

Momo Men are undoubtedly familiar with our Iolani button-ups. They epitomize easy-to-wear, retro-cool shirts that are an essential for any summer wardrobe.

We’re also excited to inform you that Momo has a new Iolani design scheduled to arrive soon (we're shooting for before Father's Day): the “Imua” shirt in navy blue. Stay tuned!

For Momo Girls, we have striking Iolani dresses in graphic black and white prints. Wear them loose for a casual day out, or belted for a Tory Burch look (at a fraction of the cost). These super comfortable dresses look great with a pair of strappy sandals.

Fresh From London and NYC

Momo is excited to inform our Dear Readers that we are now carrying work by London-based jeweler Rachel Essex. Whimsical, colorful and utterly charming, her pieces are the perfect pop of color to brighten the Seattle “neutral” wardrobe.

Rachel frequents antique fairs, flea markets and thrift shops in London and Paris in search of vintage lucite and bakelite buttons and components. As a result, many of her pieces have one-of-a-kind buttons or beads.

Rachel Essex Jewelry can be found at Anthropologie in London and at Cath Kidson ... and now Momo! She was sweet enough to customize a Momo-exclusive collection — the only of Rachel’s jewelry to be found in the US.

The sweetest cherries..

can you spy the little bunny?

Don’t fret, Momo men! We've got you covered — with our latest order of NY Hat Co. hats. The “Pub Cap” in black or brown plaid, classic canvas “Rexy,” grey plaid linen “Gatsby” or the straw “Diamond Crown.”
