In 1965 Salvador Tenn decided to stop working (as in the expression "work at what you love and you'll stop working,") and open a shop for coin and stamp collectors like himself. He fixed it up, baptized it Iris Mundus and ordered two boxes of marchbooks from the Fosforera Española and put one behind the counter to give out to customers and neighbors. And he filled it with his growing collection of coins and stamps, then postcards and playing cards. Then lottery tickets.<br /><br />Yes! It turns out that there's more than one way to hit the jackpot with the lottery in Spain. Besides buying the winning number (so repetetive, so chancy!) you can collect tickets that weren't lucky the first time around. All because Salvador Tenn, trying to build stock, kept getting stuck with old lottery tickets when he'd cart off boxes of stuff from the little lottery sellers. What most people see as junk looks like a fascinating challenge to a collector's eye and he started contacting the Lottery Administration to find out more about the provenance of strange stamps and special issue tickets. And that's how old, non-winning lottery tickets became something to treasure in Spain.<br /><br />While he collected, his wife Neus ran back and forth from house and three daughters to the shop. Not long ago two of the three daughters took the shop's operations over from their father. They swear the don't have shopkeeping in their blood, although one had a toy shop and the other still has a ceramic shop in Sant Feliu de Guixols. Still, growing up among all the bric-a-brac and stamps and coins and lottery tickets and playing cards and postcards may gave given them pack-rat tendancies since both Montse and Neus confess to giving a home to cast-offs found on the nit dels trastos. Some things never change.<br /><br />Some things do though - as girls all three would help their father send his catalogs to collectors all over. Since 2005 they've been posting news to their website and shipping the goods to far-flung corners.<br /><br />And last winter, just in time for the shop's 44th anniversary they found the second box of matchbooks they'd ordered in 1965. Still work too, so if you stop by for some vintage postcards you might be lucky enough to see Salvador out on his afternoon walk to check in on his little girls and give away a few matchbooks. Definitely worth the trip!<br /><br />Iris Mundus:<br />Manuel de Falla 29<br />Tel. 93 203 5515Miranda Wilkotzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09059335578464604151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4173050526532426619.post-5412156586916695582009-10-25T19:00:00.006+01:002009-11-23T13:23:20.377+01:00Castillo de Naipes<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs6dDsoNQJeKINf7yTf3JAqChXuje8bXyKZIuccJ7WHRSYYdBNFH5_atXzxM6n_crRmnzWCrPHmVdFQdGbLYfz1UQODYRUaLIfNeUqhWcvWnug126aIoOvOe4qgfzN-kBA0TFEsHuKhRE/s1600-h/P1020442.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs6dDsoNQJeKINf7yTf3JAqChXuje8bXyKZIuccJ7WHRSYYdBNFH5_atXzxM6n_crRmnzWCrPHmVdFQdGbLYfz1UQODYRUaLIfNeUqhWcvWnug126aIoOvOe4qgfzN-kBA0TFEsHuKhRE/s320/P1020442.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397023313090311938" border="0" /></a><br />Paseando por Maestro Falla en Sarrià, no dirías nunca que la tienda con las postales e ilustraciones antiguas es el centro mundial de lo que en su día fue una tendencia nueva. En 1965 Salvador Tenn decición dejar de trabajar (en el sentido de "trabaja en lo que te gusta y dejarás de trabajar") y abrió una tienda para coleccionistas de monedas y sellos como él. Lo arregló, la bautizó Iris Mundus y pidió dos cajas de libritos de cerillas de la Fosferera Española y puso una en el mostrador para repartir entre clientes y vecinos. Y llenó la tienda con su colección de monedas y sellos y más adelante también con postales y naipes. Y después, lotería.<br /><br />¡Sí! Resulta que hay más de una manera de ganar la lotería en España. Además de comprar el número ganador (qué repetetivo, qué riesgo tan alto de que no te toque!) puedes coleccionar lotería que no tuvo suerte en la primera ronda. Y todo porque Salvador Tenn, intentando encontrar stocks para la tienda, se llevó una y otra vez los stocks de los puestos de lotería que incluían lotería no vendida. Lo que a la mayoría parece un trasto es un reto fascinante para un coleccionista, así que empezó a ponerse en contacto con la Administración de Lotería para investigar los orígenes de los sellos raros y las ediciones especiales. Y es así que la lotería vieja que no había sido premiada se convertió en algo especial en España.<br /><br />Mientras él coleccionaba, su mujer Neus iba arriba y abajo entre su piso y sus tres niñas y la tienda. Hace poco dos de las tres empezaron a gestionar la tienda. Juran no ser tenderas de vocación, aunque una tenía una tienda de juguetes didácticos y la otra una tienda de cerámica en Sant Feliu de Guixols. Ahora bien, criarse entre tantos objetos curiosos, sellos y monedas y lotería y naipes y postales debe haberles dado una tendencía a acumular, porque tanto Montse como Neus confiesan su aficción a dar un hogar a muebles encontrados en la nit dels trastos. Hay cosas que no cambian.<br /><br />Y las hay que sí. De niñas, las tres ayudaban a su padre a enviar sus catálogos a todas partes. Desde 2005 suben las novedades a su web y envían pedidos por todo el mundo.<br /><br />Y el invierno pasado, a tiempo para celebrar el 44 aniversario de la tienda, encontraron la segunda caja de libritos de cerrillas que habían pedido en 1965. Y todavía funcionan, o sea que si pasas a buscar unas postales vintage, puede que tengas la suerte de ver a Salvador cuando viene durante su paseo de la tarde a ver a sus niñas y regalar algunas cerrillas. ¡Vale la pena!<br /><br />Iris Mundus:<br />Manuel de Falla 29<br />Tel 93 203 5515Miranda Wilkotzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09059335578464604151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4173050526532426619.post-30146961419110588472009-10-16T22:20:00.003+02:002009-10-16T22:24:21.248+02:00Another one?Do you remember Bambalinas, the ultra cute children's line that was <a href="http://barcelonatoyou.blogspot.com/2008/05/bambalinas-revisited.html">on the verge</a> in the spring of 2008?

Por otra parte, si ya estás en el ajo, ¿pa' que leer un libro de dos inglesas que necesitan un diccionario para entenderte cuando pides Vicks Vapor Rub?<br /><br />Pues porque ellas, que entre las dos llevan más de 50 años en España, te pueden enseñar mucho sobre tu país y los 13 idiomas vivos que se hablan aquí (sí, incluso muchos españoles no saben que son tantos). Y también <a href="http://www.inthegarlic.com/quiz.html">datos importantes</a> como los verdaderos orígenes del futbolín (una pista - tienen que ver con la Guerra Civil, un rehén y un secuestro de avión.) <br /><br /><a href="http://www.inthegarlic.com/authors.html">Valerie y Theresa</a> se hartaron de ver los estreotipos y la información errónea sobre España y decidieron que había llegado el momento de utilizar toda la información y experiencia que habían acumulado en estos años para describir la cultura desde el punto de vista de alguien que está al mismo tiempo de dentro y de fuera.<br /><br />Encontrarás <span style="font-style: italic;">In the Garlic </span>(Santana Books, 2006) en BCN Books:<br />Roger de Llúria 118<br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"></span></span></span>tel. 93 457 7692Miranda Wilkotzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09059335578464604151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4173050526532426619.post-11929595390696505272009-05-25T00:09:00.006+02:002009-05-27T21:09:57.132+02:00When you're least expecting itYou know that saying about how when you're least expecting something you should expect it? It is sooooooo true. Like today for example if you're standing on a street corner waiting for the light to change and thinking about where to duck for shelter if any more of the drops you'd just felt started falling on you and you absentmindedly walked into Petit Bateau and saw the cutest underwear you'd seen in a long time. You probably would not have been expecting that. But there it was.<br /><br />We really don't have time to get into why it took so long for the bikini cut to catch on in the European market but let's just say that we know women who never buy their underwear in Spain so finding these was a major revelation.<br /><br />You may not have been expecting to buy underwear today, but do it anyway - the Petit Bateau Super Fin Coton collection culotte is too good to pass up (and check out the matching tank tops because we were not expecting to love the set, but here we are, loving it.)<br /><br />Petit Bateau<br />Mallorca 270<br />tel 93 272 0362<br /><br />Rambla Cataluña 89<br />tel 93 488 3736<br /><br />Diagonal 3<br />tel 93 356 0469Miranda Wilkotzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09059335578464604151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4173050526532426619.post-56353275097238098252009-05-24T23:45:00.007+02:002009-05-27T21:01:47.363+02:00Cuando menos te lo esperas<meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 11"><meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 11"><link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5CMiranda%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:worddocument> <w:view>Normal</w:View> <w:zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:hyphenationzone>21</w:HyphenationZone> <w:punctuationkerning/> <w:validateagainstschemas/> <w:saveifxmlinvalid>false</w:SaveIfXMLInvalid> <w:ignoremixedcontent>false</w:IgnoreMixedContent> <w:alwaysshowplaceholdertext>false</w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText> <w:compatibility> <w:breakwrappedtables/> <w:snaptogridincell/> <w:wraptextwithpunct/> <w:useasianbreakrules/> <w:dontgrowautofit/> </w:Compatibility> <w:browserlevel>MicrosoftInternetExplorer4</w:BrowserLevel> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:latentstyles deflockedstate="false" latentstylecount="156"> </w:LatentStyles> </xml><![endif]--><style> <!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0cm; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:FR;} @page Section1 {size:612.0pt 792.0pt; margin:70.85pt 3.0cm 70.85pt 3.0cm; mso-header-margin:36.0pt; mso-footer-margin:36.0pt; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style><!--[if gte mso 10]> <style> /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Tabla normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;} </style> <![endif]--><p class="MsoNormal">¿Sabes aquel dicho de cuando menos te lo esperas lo debes esperar?

Según sus padres, Rita traía una <a href="http://www.cottonkids.es/">tienda</a> debajo del brazo. Más o menos. Mamá y Papá trabajaban en moda, fotografía, cosas chulas, pero cuando llegó Rita empezaron a plantearse un proyecto que podría ser un reflejo de ellos y crecer con la familia – y nació Cotton Kids.<br /><br />Un paseo post-cole una tarde los llevó al local de Jaume Piquet, que estaba lleno de luz y en alquiler – empapelaron la pared y se pusieron en marcha. La tienda está llena de camisetas básicas y también divertidas, muchas rayas en mallas y camisetas, tejanos fantásticos de Imps&Elfs (lo sentimos H&M, pero de alguien se ha de copiar,) sudaderas sofisticadas de las que les gustan a Mamá y a bebé (lo sabemos por experiencia,) y la nueva versión de plimsoles de Snook. No podría ser más divertido para todos.<br /><br />Cristina y Ramón buscan por todo el mundo (principalmente a través de las ferias de Copenhague y Ámsterdam) para conseguir las marcas especiales que tienen – nuevas para esta primavera son Munsterkids y Babycase, y verás más Tuss y Popupshop que antes. No te pierdas esta tienda en una callecita de Sarriá – dentro es todo luz y alegría.<br /><br /><br />Cotton Kids<br />Jaume Piquet 12<br />Tel. 93 205 9854Miranda Wilkotzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09059335578464604151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4173050526532426619.post-857964212471817962008-11-23T15:55:00.001+01:002008-11-25T22:34:17.732+01:00Sunday is for ...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7hHPTgI7z-q8tEnGx_y1ytOzFljP0Yni6h6YSMPXAsGvlxpUhrlvaWuXku9pxBhVxjOH4cp884uhqXDTOV_8qiL-B3ckONrPE-OV4j1yDP6Bkk63fqozIWOKg9x3zBDlkeOdKqHmc0hY/s1600-h/undomingodiferente_badge_esp.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5272711469308013986" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 100px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 100px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7hHPTgI7z-q8tEnGx_y1ytOzFljP0Yni6h6YSMPXAsGvlxpUhrlvaWuXku9pxBhVxjOH4cp884uhqXDTOV_8qiL-B3ckONrPE-OV4j1yDP6Bkk63fqozIWOKg9x3zBDlkeOdKqHmc0hY/s320/undomingodiferente_badge_esp.png" border="0" /></a><br /><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">It’s really not that easy to write about shopping these days.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>Nothing looks exciting enough to buy.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>We already have three of those at home.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>It’s unseasonably cold and windy.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>And all that consumer confidence data is telling us we’re not alone in feeling ho hum about anything that involves out of pocket expenses.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>So when you find out we’re writing about Maremagnum you think we’re going to tell you to go shop there.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>You are so wrong.</span><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Because really we see two options if you feel more like lining your pockets than shelling out.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>Stay at home and read about everybody else’s batty <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/20/garden/20math.html?scp=1&sq=home%20economics&st=cse">anti-recession spending</a> and feel secretly superior.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>Or win Maremagnum’s <a href="http://www.maremagnum.es/undomingodiferente">Un Domingo Diferente</a> video contest (and the 1500 euros that goes along with the fame and glory.)<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>Maremagnum?<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>Because, no, it doesn’t have to about shopping, doesn’t have to include Maremagnum, doesn’t even have to be made in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 /><st1:city st="on"><st1:place st="on">Barcelona</st1:place></st1:city>.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>It just has to be less than two minutes about how you like to spend your Sunday without including any sexually explicit content (we’re not including that to be smart aleck-y, it’s right there plain as day in the contest rules.)</span><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="http://www.maremagnum.es/undomingodiferente/participa">Read the rules</a>, shoot your thing and get it all done before December 17.<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>Easy as pie.<?xml:namespace prefix = o /><o:p></o:p></span></p></div>Miranda Wilkotzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09059335578464604151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4173050526532426619.post-20293569851914840502008-11-23T15:33:00.004+01:002008-11-25T22:42:53.420+01:00Domingo es para ...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCvphA_X_-7WzTU4wiQLmMDQRRSu-2yj0Waj8LIilQL_4UrwVOwLsLNrHEG1dNEWKn85zI91aL7tW1HEreOjzoj9wZwGcVE5zCHi8yXEG4S3SYZgiu5yi23VrfIrcaTgWALP-WMhxVTig/s1600-h/undomingodiferente_badge_esp.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5272709836503167922" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 100px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 100px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCvphA_X_-7WzTU4wiQLmMDQRRSu-2yj0Waj8LIilQL_4UrwVOwLsLNrHEG1dNEWKn85zI91aL7tW1HEreOjzoj9wZwGcVE5zCHi8yXEG4S3SYZgiu5yi23VrfIrcaTgWALP-WMhxVTig/s320/undomingodiferente_badge_esp.png" border="0" /></a><br /><p class="MsoNormal">No es nada fácil escribir sobre compras en estos días.

Fit, wash and well, mostly fit, can be stress producing, and the market over saturation makes you feel that you should leave no stone unturned in your pursuit of the perfect fit. But by the time you’ve done that you could be out of the jean-wearing demographic.<br /><br />So let us help you narrow your search parameters. Go to H&M. You’ll find the Sqin for the daring set, the Wide for the fashion set, Original and Lucky for just plain old jeans wearers and then styles that come and go like the Now, wide trouser-cut dark dark wash with metallic stitching. Lots of stores have lots of cuts, you’re saying, what’s so special about H&M? Have you ever tried on 6 pairs of jeans and had them all look good, we say back. Go to H&M – they’ll make your day.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>H&M<br /><br />tel for all stores: 901 120 084<br /><br />Badalona<br />Carrer del Mar 31 – 33<br />m – sat 10 – 20:30<br /><br />Barcelona<br />C.C.

El corte, el acabado, bueno más que nada el corte, pueden producir estrés y la sobresaturación del mercado te da la sensación que hay que remover medio mundo hasta encontrar el corte perfecto. Pero la búsqueda puede tardar tanto que cuando los encuentres quizá ya no tengas edad para ponértelos.<br /><br />Déjanos ayudarte a acotar los parámetros de tu búsqueda. Ves a H&M. Encontrarás el Sqin para los osados, el Wide para los muy fashion, los Original y Loyal para los que les gustan los tejanos y punto, y modelos que vienen y van como el Now – corte sastre ancho con acabado oscuro oscuro y costuras metálicas. Muchas tiendas tienen muchos cortes distintos, dices, ¿porque es especial H&M? Respondemos: ¿alguna vez te has probado 6 tejanos y encontrado que los 6 te sientan bien?

Paris to Provence? Hmmm. Nobodinoz how hard it can be to <a href="http://dsc.discovery.com/news/2008/06/06/alien-life-telescope.html">shift gears</a> better than Murielle Bressan but once she had the idea to set up shop as a kiddie cool hunter there was no stopping her. She visited trade shows, came up with a name, a logo, and a concept that could be reproduced anywhere. So when opportunity came knocking on Séneca street she and her husband were ready to pick up their three children and move to Barcelona to fill the space with oh so sophisticated clothes for tots, design and vintage children’s furniture, princess costumes with wimples, rag dolls with hand knit sweaters, and other wonders the likes of which hadn’t been seen here before. And there they’ve been since July 2006. Wait, you don’t know where it is? Yes you do – turn left at <a href="http://www.lydiadelgado.es/">Lydia Delgado</a>, pass the space where Urbana was until just a few days ago, then the Roig Rubí, <a href="http://www.morillas.com/">those branding people </a>and you’ll see it. Murielle says Barcelona is a great place because her customers are a little like children, in awe of all the new things they’re discovering. But look for Nobodinozes in other parts when the time and the space are right.<br /><br />Nobodinoz<br />c/Séneca 9<br />tel 93 368 6335<br /><a href="http://www.nobodinoz.com/">http://www.nobodinoz.com/</a>Miranda Wilkotzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09059335578464604151noreply@blogger.com
