REBEL LOA // NL
Natasja ~ Rebel Loa
Located in Amsterdam North
IS THERE A STORY BEHIND THE NAME REBELLOA?
Certainly! My partner and I have 2 kids, Sol and Loa. My partner's business is named after our son Sol (SolKitchen), and mine is named after our daughter Loa. Why rebel? Well, Loa is a rebel and does exactly what she wants and the way she wants it.
WHY DID YOU START YOUR COMPANY?
When Loa was smaller, I always was looking for cool clothes which were a bit special and not so mainstream. Quite often I found brands which I liked, but you could not buy them in the Netherlands. Why not? So I decided to give it a try, and start my own shop with cool brands for little rebels.
HOW DID YOU START YOUR COMPANY?
After a surgery a few years ago I needed to stay home for a while to recover. During that period I started my preparations for my own shop. It took me around 9 months to prepare everything (collection, webshop etc) and we opened our virtual doors September 2018.
WHO ARE THE PEOPLE BEHIND REBEL LOA?
Our shop is small, so I do everything by myself.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT KIDS FASHION?
Kids fashion is fun, there is so much choice. But that also makes it hard. IF I like something, that does not mean my daughter likes it. So, we try to find things we like both of us.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT ODP?
II like the colourful designs of the clothes, and they seem to be comfortable and affordable. Besides that, ODP is Dutch and I admire Yvonne for what she accomplished by herself.
FUN FACT 1
My secret passion is writing. I write blogs for an online magazine. Hopefully, I can develop my writing skills more in the future. And I LOVE food! My partner is a head chef, so food plays an important role in our lives.
FUN FACT 2
Every order that comes in is celebrated with cheering and dancing.
