Assistance League Way Side Inn Thrift Shop Presents Annual Classic Leather Handbags Event

You won't need deep pockets to buy one of these beauties!

The dedicated member volunteers at Assistance League® Way Side Inn Thrift Shop, in Lafayette, will present the annual American Classic Designer Handbags event beginning on Tuesday, January 31. Appropriately located on Golden Gate Way, under the watchful eye of Marquis de’ Lafayette, the well-known landmark will become a purveyor of high-end handbags sold at yesteryear’s prices.

This well-attended promotion will celebrate the creative geniuses of Dooney & Bourke and Coach, both fashioned by American designers who were inspired by modern world nuances. Engineered with the highest regard for materials and craftsmanship during the 40’s through the 90’s, such features as expertly structured, timelessly chic, elegant but functional, and on-the-go glamour define these creations. While several of the styles have been discontinued, their signature hardware, contrast interior design and durability will confirm their authenticity.

When you purchase one of these classic finds, whether a shoulder bag, satchel or grip, you will enjoy years of durability and luxury. As important, you will participate in the tradition of improving the lives of those in our community who are vulnerable—another great American signature piece!
