Denmark is where it's happening!



LOVE these pieces on Denmark and all things Danish in Saturday's Times and the Guardian .
The Danish crime series The Killing staring Sofie Gråbøl as Sarah Lund which is currently running on BBC 4 and has reached cult status in the UK, have started a thing that all things Danish are cool. In Kakao by K you can be sure to dress Danish and leave the shop with a bit of understated chic Danish style the series so beautifully shows.

New addition to te Kakao by K portflio


Danish Soaked in Luxury has been added to the Kakao by K designer portfolio this Spring. Expect soft urban rock influences, retro country living, seaside resorts and colour plays melt together in a look that feels new and fresh.

Breton stripes, feminine butterflies and mini prints give life to the new season in an easygoing colour palette on smooth, soft and feminine fabrics. Draping effects and clever details give a sophisticated look that’s easy to wear whether you’re dressing for a Sunday brunch with friends, a late night date or simply a regular day at work.

Navy blue plays a central role as a base for this season’s colour palette and it is not missing in the Soaked in Luxury collection. Match navy with black gives this traditional colour a new edge. Grey continues as a key colour and looks great worn in a head to toe look, while soft pink, lavender, cream, strong pink and red work as a contrast to the base colours.

Soaked in Luxury is about being individual – being you – and achieving that by creating your own personal style.

We at Kakao think you are going to love Soaked in Luxury.

This season, function meets beauty in a feminine, sensual way in the By Malene Birger collection. The collection draws inspiration from the 50’s half calf lengths and strong leather jackets, combined with the simple comfortable look of the early 90’s. The collection is a tribute to a woman's need to dress up - and down - styling her look in different ways. Artistic yet sexy – a wardrobe that's easy to style and travel with.

The collection includes both strong linen suits and sophisticated dresses and, of course, sailor-inspired stripes. An important effect is the safari-inspired look on pockets and inside details. To spice up the look is leather pants combined with exclusive knitwear and 50’s inspired items such as studded vests and handcrafted ethnic accessories. Cool constructed tshirts in new qualities - both with and without prints. Season favorites are chinos inspired
from men’s wear, and ponchos worn like a blanket.

The details draw on safari and hunting clothes, in a chic new way. It is a tribute to craftsmanship
and the flawless fabrication of utility clothes. Practical details like inside pockets, and
cottons bands to use as braces, are significant to the new look. Throughout the collection,
the focus is on details like leather trimmings, mixing materials, baggy pockets and sophisticated
inside details. They are minimalistic and used to create personality.

The look is cleaned up – strong and powerful – using simple graphic prints with an artistic
handmade touch.

Ms. Birger has created hand-painted prints, and they are used throughout the collection,
mostly for t-shirts - especially the UNICEF t-shirt for kids and adults, showing her dedication
to UNICEF and children in need. A unique artwork is the no. 7 – a cycles symbolizing the company’s
7 years, Ms. Birger’s lucky number, and the 7 days in a week.
