I’ve been super quiet on social media lately; partly because I wanted a break, partly because I’m preoccupied with deciding the future, and partly because it feels insensitive to be talking about leather goods when the world seems so uncertain right now. •

It feels weird to call on customers who have no idea themselves if they will even be able to weather the ☔️


There is a shining light for this business; I have 2 amazing new customers I am adding this year, one of which I have been calling and waiting for, for almost three years! The other is a very successful woman who owns three shops and is growing. ❤️ •

My sister in law gave me great advice. Corona virus has put everything on pause; it’s not the time to make huge decisions. 2020 is proving to be a time to stay the course and take small steps to come out the other end. I can’t wait for us to start to come back. Until then, drink 🍷 •

I am obsessed with the fit and lines of this moto chic jacket! You can dress it up or make it casual. I can’t believe it’s May and there are days when a jacket would still be useful.

I am thinking about this in navy blue, what say you? •

Well, you woke up this morning
The world turned upside down
Lord above, thing's ain't been the same since Howlin' Wolf walked into your town
But you're one in a million, you've got that shotgun… (that cigar and ...that wine).

What’s getting you through? I feel like I’m spinning plates and not doing anything well!

We hosted a duck wedding today. You may be questioning how this happened.

Well, we ride bikes two or three times a day and we discovered the same ducks in a small pond by our house. The girls started asking questions like: are they married, where are their babies?

So we started visiting and bringing food every day. Today they woke up and asked if we could marry them? So, I said yes! They all put on lipstick to get dressed up and we brought orange peels, bread and flowers.

Of course our ducks were there to greet us and I even played “Cannon in D” as we threw bread, orange peels and flowers to them. It was surprisingly fun and totally cool! Now our ducks, Shirely and Sheldon are officially married! They are ready to enter into wedded bliss. 😂😁😇

More to come........

From my 6 year old’s best friend; so beautiful I cried. It’s during difficult times that we see the beauty of being connected to others.

I have connected more with so many people lately on a deeper level; shared FaceTime happy hour, shared fear, shared frustrations, sharing.

So, I was mindlessly scrolling through IG just now when I came upon this post.
When I was in 10th grade at Fort Lauderdale High School back in 1994 🥴, I had a teacher named Mr. Davis. He said “weird” things all the time, like “beware of the Ides of March”, “bloom where you are planted”, and March 4th. We all thought he was from an alternate universe, but now as an adult, I reflect upon his words and “Mr. Davis-isms” and I am fond of the memories.
Life gets segmented into phases, childhood, teens, college years, misspent 20’s, 30’s starting a family, 40’s- having a profound sense of self, both in limitations and capabilities and now; uncertainty.
I will not pontificate or philosophize but I do want this pillow; it makes me happy.

This is how I feel right now and how many of my retail customers feel as well.
I try to stay positive about everything and say, we think we have it bad; and many of us do, but can we imagine what it must have been like during WWII living in hiding for years with no access to sunlight, being with multiple families in one small space and having to remain quiet for fear of being sent to a gas chamber. It is simply unimaginable.
Many people now are sick and in hospitals. I thank our brave healthcare workers for fighting for all of us.
The future is unknown, but we gather strength from finding the bright side.
