 I LOVE THIS BAG.
It's perfect. The colors, the size, the canvas & leather combo... You just have to come in and check it out for yourself to understand!
It's got the perfect slouch; I think that's what makes it. Big bags always end up looking too droopy or puffy, but this gem has a structured bottom! It so hard to find a nice, large bag with a flat structured bottom. This means you can actually carry all your crap and not have it ruin the initial shape of your bag. This purse can hold a lot without looking stuffed, or just be your go-to staple bag. Whether you are a UC student like me, with textbooks and an unnecessary assortment of pens and highlighters, or a business woman with an ipad and blackberry and ipod and office pumps- this beautiful satchel has got you covered!
At $350, this versatile Tod's satchel is the definition of a great investment piece and a great deal  :)

boots!


A literally PERFECT pair of Alexander McQueen boots. The craftsmanship, fine leather and stacked heel make these boots truly a work of art. These kicks are a pretty penny, but if you have ever worn anything McQueen, you understand why: there's just no comparing when it comes to the late great designer's standards in quality.


To be fair, I think every true boot-lover NEEDS a pair of Fryes. These vintage cowboy-style boots are a fraction of the standard Frye Boot price and they stand the test of time, not only in durability but in style as well. I cherish my black motorcycle frye boots; they are so dependable and versatyle- I can wear them with summer floral dresses or hiking in any weather conditions. Do not underestimate a Frye boot, they are like Chevy trucks- built to last... or, like a rock. Whatever. They're badass.

Also! don't forget our shoe sale continues on until August 11th. That means 25% OFF ALL SHOES in store! (unless otherwise marked)
So come through this week. We have flats, heels, boots and sandals in sizes ranging from 5 - 11. We aren't accepting consignments at this time because we need to make room for the fall season, which will be here before ya know it. So stop in to check out our shoes and and any other surprise pop-up sales! :)
