COS my new love


I've discovered a new love. Affordable, excellently designed clothing from COS (Collection Of Style) by H&M, designed by Rebekkah Bay. How can anyone not love architectural, origami like clothes, with exquisite (NATURAL) fabric that surprise you at every turn. Been to the Den Haag store, bought the top on the left for only EUR29? It drapes beautifully and has a neckline that looks like a beginning of a paper boat and feels like paper but is cotton!
The store is beautifully minimalistic and the sales staff a dream and you should know that usually is hard to find in the Netherlands. Clothes come to you gorgeously wrapped up in tissue, in a solid paper bag with a beautiful striped ribbon as handles. The menswear section is equally delicious and I might just steal some of that even if the womens wear does come to a size 18.
