Frau Hansen Where Nice Things Live

During a late afternoon stroll through my neighborhood around Osterstraße in Eimsbüttel I found myself flattening my nose against the display of a new store. I have to get in there, was my next thought and within a few days, I was back at 'Frau Hansen'. What had attracted me from outside was continued inside, in the most beautiful way possible: miraculous little things in abundance – from OPI nail polishes and interior accessories by Ferm Living to Le Specs shades – invite you to roam the entire place.

And that mixture: starting at the living area with an exquisite selection of bed covers and cushions, I made my way through to a cabinet carrying jewelry by New York label Bye Boe, then made a turn towards the children's room gather potential gift ideas for my niece and finally drifted towards the promising clothing rail where I'd already spotted several beauties by favorite labels of mine, Modström and Minimum.

Despite the mixture, the store maintains a surprisingly clean and Nordic feel to it - probably because Nicole Hansen, who opened up this store in April 2014 together with her boyfriend Niels, is a true fan of Scandinavian interiors. If she doesn't like it, you will likely not find it at Frau Hansen's. A personal note that you can grasp just by roaming the, btw absolutely affordable line of products.

With Senf Pauli, Flaschenweise, Ahoi Marie and label Navucko all representing Hamburg producers at their best, it's evident that Frau Hansen cares to support local manufacturers. This store is a ture treasure chest if you're looking to find something special or chic to gift!
