AN AWESOME OUTFIT DESERVES AN UNFORGETTABLE ACCESSORY.
Luxury handbags don’t all have to look the same. Don’t get us wrong, we love a good go-to designer classic in our collection, but they aren’t going to get you those “WHERE did you get that bag?!”s from strangers. Let’s admit it – there’s something pretty intoxicating about being the object of a little ‘exclusivity envy’ and sporting something no one else has. (Trust us, we took a few of these beauties on a trial run at the Cowgirl Hall of Fame luncheon, and gals were clamoring to buy them right off our arms.) This eye-catching investment piece is one of a kind, created from a unique vintage handbag reinvented with upscale elements like luxury leathers, fine fur trim, and ornate accents with Western sensibilities.
History:
In the 1940s Brown Shoe Company launched Life Stride brand with the ad campaign “The Young Point of View in shoes.”

In the 70’s LifeStride (now one word) opens concept stores in major malls throughout the US.
Lifestride is still in operation.
