I've posted about Tracey Tanner before. More than once.
But I'm doing it again. Because she is rad and because she's a new sponsor of ESB (woot!) and because she's offering ESB readers a 15% discount on orders of 5 or more items.
Code: ESBBULK15
Tracey's lil pouches and makeup bags and wristlets are THE BEST gifts for bridesmaids + wedding helper friends.
The ladies I gave them to four years ago are still using em, and I have one I love to death that I fully expect to last forever. Can you say that about your Target knock-off? I bet not.
p.s. The wristbands are pretty rad, too.
Pretty excited about my bridesmaid gifts: Ilana Kohn scarves. http://byilana.blogspot.com/2011/10/new-marbled-scarf-colorways-in-shop.html
ReplyDeletemeh. $40 coin purse? $90 "small" wristlet? i'd rather go to target, buy 1 of each for $15, and have $115 left over to buy something new once the trend is dead. voila!
ReplyDeleteHow is a make-up/pouch a trend?
DeleteAnyway, I am NOT Tracey Tanner's friend and I've seen her stuff IRL and it's beautiful. And not overpriced for high, quality fashion items.
Target pleather is for "trends". Leather is forever. I have TT products and would recommend them to anyone. They are amazing gifts!
Deletetotally. when i picked it up i thought, wow. 55 bucks, a steal! and every time i pick it up i notice how well made it is. shame people would rather spend MORE on junk that will just end up in landfills so they can then buy MORE.
DeleteThanks Hilary
ReplyDeleteI really try to keep my prices as reasonable as possible. Please bear in mind my items are handmade in Brooklyn from the finest Italian leathers, not in a sweat shop in China with poor quality hides. Unfortunately it means I can't compete with prices. While the tie dye may be a trend item, I have many different finishes that are classic and timeless. I understand why someone would feel my prices are on the high side but I hope this helps to explain why.
I got my bridesmaids leather pouches from Tracey Tanner and they absolutely loved them. I got myself one too because they are just that good.
ReplyDeletewell i am just a walking talking east side bride sponsor cliche. while in brooklyn i walked myself over to catbird and and bought myself one of those lovely sparkly pouches.
ReplyDeletei saw these at a boutique in key west a few weeks ago & thought they looked familiar! i must've read about them on here a while back...
ReplyDeletethey're gorg. & i second what jamie said about the landfills- quality over quantity!
I wore one of Tracy Tanner's double wrap wristbands to my wedding, it was gorgeous, and I got so much wear out of it after the day, but I lost it recently, and I am so bummed!
ReplyDeletemine is *always* in my purse. thanks esb!
