Ecuadorian Marketplace // looking for something unique?

{FYI…I'm sold out of the purses…thanks everyone for inquiring!} 

Without a doubt, I love a good market! So whenever we are traveling, Kevin knows I always need some time shopping  checking out the local specialties. With all the self-control I can muster, I usually only pick out one little treat for myself because buying more items means carrying more weight on my back!! {and let's just put it this way…i'm no body builder} But while in Ecuador, I literally had to pick my jaw up off the floor with how many gorgeous items that abounded…it was torture to narrow down my purchasing to only one item. I'm SUCH a sucker for bright colorful patterns.

However, Kevin and I felt like we couldn't leave Ecuador without purchasing a few items to bring back to you, my readers!! So, of course I bought the most adorable items in the market…these cute little leather purses with a touch of wool colored fabric. They pretty much sum up my style as total bohemian but practical little satchels! I've got a handful of these babies, and i'm selling them for $35 each. They are 100% leather, with a strap, snap flap, and colored swatch of fabric. First come first serve!! If you're interested, please email me at hopeengaged@gmail.com

What are your favorite items at international markets? Anything in particular you look for?

Happy Shopping…I mean Happy Checking out the Local Specialties!! hehe!
