No Doubt

August - time to get out of town. Well, that was until 'staycations' became all the rage and credit crunching hipsters are choosing to stick around rather than fight hordes of people trying to get away.

Sadly our favourite shops aren't following suit, choosing instead to close up for the summer. Well, most except Duduà, which stays open. And as if to cater for poor 'staycationers', it's putting on a 'cheap art party' exhibition for the whole of August.

Much like etsy.com, Duduà aims to support up-and-coming artists in a bricks & mortar selling space, rather than makeshift craft stalls at markets. This exhibition features ten Finnish and ten Spanish artists, with pieces priced at just 5-50 Euros, so if you've been left at home broke and alone this summer and want to start a collection of future stars' artwork, take a sneak peak this Friday (20-22 hr).

The shop also stocks everything from bags and accessories to books and magazines; all with a DIY focus. UJ loves the unicorn and moustache totes, Japanese books, and the make-your-own-badge machine.
