International Shopping, Online: Branten

A month or so back we found Swedish online shop Tres Bien and haven't stopped talking about it since. Well, a little while ago we somehow ran into Branten and something tells us we're going to be equally enamored with this shop.

Quite the ambitious endeavor, Branten is a Swedish web shop, a web magazine and also has an open showroom in Stockholm. The focus is on Scandinavian designers, particularly up-and-coming names (no Acne, Diesel, J. Lindeberg, etc). The online shop and magazine is available in both Swedish and English. And there's free shipping to anywhere in the world. Somebody pinch us.

Of the two dozen or so labels on the site right now we recognized exactly three of them. So you'll want to see the goods designer by designer. We're sure we'll be talking more about the site in the weeks and months to come but here are two designers that jumped out at us right off the bat.
