If you’re in Santa Fe looking for Char on San Francisco Street – well, guess what? You’re looking in the wrong place! If you haven’t already figured it out, Char has moved.  And if you don’t know who Char is – then we seriously need to talk.

Char may be best known for her leathers, but if you haven’t checked her store out lately then you are certainly in for a treat.  I visited with her a few weeks ago and her inventory is as great as ever.

Here is just a sampling of her terrific leathers that are made right in Santa Fe.

Additionally, any antique lace items in her store are made in the USA and all of the hand-cotton blouses are crafted in Bali.

There’s a HUGE selection of yummy jewelry made by her sons, Demian and Alex, like the below pieces.  However, they also make these amazing  Fortuno Lockets.

 There were three NEW things I learned on this past visit to Char:

  • If you’re a sale stalker like me- venture upstairs. That’s where she keeps her loot of good dealzzz!
  • She now has her OWN parking lot!
  • Char told me she likes to hold “theme” parties in her store. How fun is that?  If you and your girlfriends have an idea for a theme party, reach out to her and see what you can come up with (as these parties need to be prearranged.)  Char holds these parties on Friday evenings from 4:30-7:00 PM, and will even serve you and your guests a little “munch and bev!”

So go see Char – and get your Santa Fe Style on!
