Women Making History: Una Kim of Keep Company

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

Keep Company was started in 2005 by Margot Jacobs and Una Kim. The idea had been in the works for years, but finally came together through a solid combination of timing, opportunity, savings, and auspicious astrological forecasts.

Keep Company is based in Los Angeles, California. Margot and Una were crew in New York first, before Margot split to go to Italy and then Sweden. Una lived large in Brooklyn until she left for Northern California in 2003 before finally settling in sunny Los Angeles. Now the ladies have reunited to bring Keep into the world. Keep is a shoe company, a clothing company, an amalgam of interests, a way of being, a force, a language, a family and many other things.

You know we got more on Una and her mold-breaking company, after the jump!

Ahhh, yes, spring is in, which means its time to switch from your rain coats to bright colors and lots of stripes! Keep’s spring goods have hit shelves, along with more styles trickling down throughout the week. The collection has a beachy, nautical laid-back feel that is perfect to get you ready for spring. Keep has renovated their site, which is quite snazzy, if I say so myself. Check out the new site to get a glimpse into the Keep state of mind and check out the new items in the shop!

M.I.S.S. February ‘08

Holidaaaaay! Celebrate! Oh, the Holiday sneaker…Christmas, Halloween, 4th of July, St. Patty’s, Easter, Valentines Day, Thanksgiving?? Yeah, even Thanksgiving. Now a days we look forward to a new sneaker release around each Holiday, perhaps more so than presents under the Christmas tree. They come “quick”, are gone even faster (usually), and often times fetch a premium on the resale market. There was a time when not all Holidays had a sneaker. This particular Valentines edition of the Nike Air Max 90 is from 2001 and is from the beginnings of the Holiday sneaker craze. It was love at first site. Don’t know about you but here at M.I.S.S. we’d take these over a box of chocolates any day. Oh, we still want the red roses and romantic dinner but the only box of something we want this Valentines Day best have kicks inside!
