Backpacks are the new Crossbody Bag
Posted by Debbe Hamada on
The year is new and many of our customers are treating themselves to a new bag, and that bag often seems to be a backpack. These urban packs are available in leather or a coated fabric from a variety of makers. All zip close and have lots of interior pockets. Just right for work, travel or a day of exploring around your city.

Cut n' Paste Leather Handbags
Posted by Julie Beckett on
We love this small leather line designed in sunny Los Angeles, California. These great modern styles feature super soft leather and great pockets.
This cross body satchel (modeled by our owner) is one of our favorite styles. The satchel has multiple interior pockets and a handle on top which is makes it super easy to grab on a busy day as you go from one errand to the next.
Cut n' Paste uses hand-dyed, rustic leathers that will only get better with use. We've selected a palette of gray, brown, black and burgundy which highlight the natural variations in the leather.

Made in Los Angeles from leather and pure merino wool felt, these handbags are both classic and modern.
We love the graphic color blocking, as well as the durable natural materials.
In addition to the totes above with the leather handles, we've brought in this all felt style with adjustable webbing straps.

Nixon Watches
Posted by Julie Beckett on
Oh Nixon, how we love your watches. There's a watch to fit every style, from chic to modern to a little bit of bling.
And let's not forget Nixon's mens watches, which have a rugged sophistication as well as subtle pops of color.
Now for the hard part: choosing a favorite.

Mywalit
Posted by Julie Beckett on
We are fully stocked on this beautiful line based in Lucca, Italy. Lots of your favorites are here, like the ever-popular Matinee wallet.
We also have a few new styles that we think will answer the wallet needs of many. We finally have a good selection of business card holders for your bag!
And a sweet smaller wallet that has an ID holder, a change section, an area for credit cards and a full bill slot.
The new Mywalit color for this fall is Evergreen, an organic mix of beautiful earthy greens and yellows.
We've learned that everyone seems to have a different way to carry their money, and everyone thinks their way is the best way. Mywalit seems to have caught on to that too, with a style to suit (almost) everyone.
