Vogue Fasion Night for Fashion lovers
Hudson River (closed down)
You might wondering what is happening in the picture above... It is a scene in one of the little streets downtown.... those quiet streets, where people sit and eat outside on a nice Summer day. And those days shop owners take their newest finds outside to work on.
Yesterday I made some pictures at Hudson River, a shop in the center of Amsterdam filled with vintage furniture and Americana... The perfect place if you love huge metal industrial signs and other unusual furniture and decoration for your home. Every few months a container full of American finds, all collected by the shop owner himself is shipped to Amsterdam. It is also the address to shop stars like I have on my kitchen wall!
Restored
Located on Haarlemmerdijk 39, Restored is all about beauty, balance and originality.Restored focus on representing talented young designers, and offering them a platform to bring their products and visions to a wider public.
In the store you will find beautiful garments, accessories, items for your interior, magazines and more. The products are manufactured with attention to craftsmanship. They have innovative details, are hand made and produced in small quantities.
I love to browse this shop for little star pendants for my necklace and it's my address for Anthology and Frankie magazine.
New Amsterdam City guide
A new updated city guide - Version August 16 2012 - is now up for download.
I also finally made a beginning with the Dam + Spui areas where you will find Concept store Options, H & M Home, Zafra and Mariska Meijers. But there is still a lot to write and photograph.
At Utrechtsestraat I added Hutspot! And the new home for A store without a name is to be found at the Haarlemmerstraat. And do have a look at Lodsh in the Leidseplein area, a new store with a home collection that is based on global influences. Please do let me now if you come across something really cool in town... meanwhile enjoy your stay!
Update: Hutspot is now closed but will re-open in December 2012 at Van WOu straat 4
Blijburg | City beach at IJburg
Amsterdam got several city beaches, so if you are unable to go to the real beach or just want to lay in the sun a bit it is a good place to go. This one called Blijburg (situated on IJburg) you can swim and lay in the sun and there is plenty of food, drinks and Dj's

Bloggable - Amsterdam unplugged on a sunny day
Waiting for the light to turn green, I saw this little sticker saying BLOGGABLE and being a blogger it made me smile.... I was on my way home after a nice day of biking around town. I went to the Noordermarkt where I spotted some bright yellow protest signs. A protest against the stupid plan of the municipality to change the square into an attraction with a big landing place for sightseeing boats

Options goes Africa {Today in Amsterdam}
What I like a lot about Options! Amsterdam is the great variety of themes they run in their concept store. From May 3 till May 24 it's all African Options!
With support from Aid to Artisans, an international non-profit organization that uses craft to spur economic development, Feeling Africa was started in 2003 by Willard Musarurwa, a gifted crafter from Zimbabwe.
Based in Cape Town, Feeling African now employs six full time wire- workers and produces funky and colourful wire furniture that has been nationally acclaimed and featured in national and international lifestyle magazines such as Elle Décor.
The products are entirely crafted by hand by the team of local artisans, and galvanised prior to being powder-coated, making them durable, weather-resistant and 100% original!
Furniture ranges from side tables, coffee tables, stools and (fruit)bowls. Feeling African also creates custom made pieces.
Today in Amsterdam: VT Wonen Magaglogue
We know VT Wonen for their great magazine and you might remember the posts I made after visiting the woonbeurs where VT Wonen and other Dutch interior magazines each year build a home totally inspired by the style of their magazine. In case you missed it here are the links again: VT Wonen home - Industrial loft + Classic elements and An industrial-kitchen-and-white-bedroom
VT wonen also has a great range of products you can buy in several Dutch shops and webshops! To introduce the latest collection there is a magalogue (a catalog and a magazine in one) coming with the latest VT Wonen magazine
To photograph the magalogue the VT Wonen team furnished two complete apartments that are up for sale (De witte kaap) One for a family with kids that you see here in this post and one for a working couple. Today the apartments were open to the public and Paulina and I visited one of them today and made some pictures.
Have a look at the digital version of the Magalogue and start shopping. For one lucky reader I have a spare copy of this months VT Wonen and the Magalogue. Just leave a comment in this post if you would like to win it ;)

Sukha Amsterdam
previously posted on Vosgesparis
Welcome to the wonderful world of Sukha Amsterdam... An amazing concept store I told you about before and mention in my Amsterdam City Guide.
The shop itself already has a wonderful interior with its high ceilings, white walls and beautiful grey painted concrete floor. The interior with it's big shop window changes quite a lot and it is always a surprise to see what is next. I really love to come here and think the shop has a really good vibe.
At Sukha you will find fashion, books, accessories, presents and unique handmade products.
Recently there is a big white tipi in the shop filled with plaids and cushions Isn't it amazing! I am loving the bright feeling it gives to the shop together with the white back wall with its little boxes and blue-ish clothes corner.. it is almost like summer is already there. You can find Sukha Amsterdam at Haarlemmerstraat 110, near central Station.
All pictures copyright Jeltje Janmaat Thank you Irene of Sukha Amsterdam for sending me all the eye candy for the blog.
IKEA Press event PS collection 2012
Previously posted on Vosgesparis
Please note this was a one time event!
Please note this was a one time event!
46 new products from 19 designers were presented during the press event of the launch of IKEA's 7th PS Collection (to be in the shops from April 23) Inspired by over 60 years of IKEA history and the products of their past collections innovative products made of smart materials and new solutions were designed for the future. The theme of the new collection is... Design belongs in real homes.
Three lofts build in the former KNSM cantine in the Eastern Docklands, where the press event was as well, were furnished with the new collection. Here are some of my favorite shots. Of course as an inhabitant of this area it was a great opportunity for me as well to see these lofts from the inside for a change.
