You would have seen these eclectic Café Kitsuné-branded coffee cups popping up all over your Instagram feed at one time or another. Cute, minimal and definitively chic, it has garnered quite a cult following simply because of its exclusivity. Falling under the Maison Kitsuné umbrella (which specialises in contemporary RTW influenced by Paris and Tokyo), Café Kitsuné is a spin-off concept that serves quality coffee in some of the hottest locations like Tokyo’s Aoyama, the gardens of the Palais Royal in Paris and a third flagship right in the heart of Seoul. Yes, just three locations worldwide, which makes them a must-visit location whenever you’re in the area.

The good news? You can now purchase their iconic ceramic cup and saucer sets, along with other hot favourites like their glasses and tumblers, ballpoint pens, keychains and totes over on their e-store, with prices starting from EUR5. The bad news? Shipping costs an additional EUR40 to Singapore, so make sure you buy enough extras as gifts to make it all worthwhile. Or think of it this way, paying for shipping is still way cheaper than begging a friend who’s heading north or buying an air ticket yourself, right?
