Default omg! randomly found tano's at a shop!

SO so so very cool! My friend and her two sons and I were walking around Boulder, Colorado today and were just window shopping before dinner and a play. I was eyeing a bag from the street (Pearl Street Mall if you know it) and was thinking that looks AWFULLY like a boogie bucket and I think it's the new pomegranate color!

My friend turned to me and said "Hey look! Your kind of store, handbags!" and I said "YEP!" turned and went inside! lol OMG their entire front display was tano handbags in LOTS of new fall colors; I was practically drooling!

They had boogies and shoppers, sexbombs and bunches of others! It was so very exciting and the pomegranate and blueberry colors were TDF!!!!!!

No raspberry in the store that I could see though but that's okay! Also, they had a watermelon sexbomb and I'm so glad I didn't order anything in watermelon because as gorgeous as the pictures are it's just NOT for me! ALSO, it was my first time seeing boogies in person! Also not for me... but that's okay! I was so excited and I knew you all would appreciate this story!

My friend thought I was crazy that I could name all the styles and all the colors of every bag sitting on the table lol! I was in my glory !

Thanks for reading about my exciting day; and no, I can't even remember the name of the store! LOL OOPS!

Oh! I also saw a lady carrying a brown sexbomb and lots of fake coach ; I was almost gagging I was surrounded by it! EW!

No grape at the store that I saw either; sad day! Oh well... I will just have to wait!

You are sooo lucky! I wish I could do some hands-on shopping for so many Tano's in the same place.

I totally understand how fun that is!! I can see it in my head how how you must have been running from bag to bag, naming the shape and color, sniffing the bags and caressing the leather... and I am sure you enjoyed every minute of it!! Too Cool!!

you guys are so funny. for some reason, the image of a girl running blissfully between handbags reminds me of that famous fred astaire/ ginger rogers dance where they're just floating around in tandem. I have no idea why...anyway, congrats on finding bag heaven!

Lol super fun!!! Too bad that store is over an hour from me and I don't even remember which store it was! LOL oh well... there is a store near here that has tanos (generally not the most current styles though) and I'm not afraid to order online! WOO HOO it was total fun; my friend thought I was nuts!

I also live in CO (in Colo Spgs) and my husband were up in that area for the past few days. I was literally coming to post THE EXACT SAME THING!!

I actually looked on Tano's site to see if any shop in Ft Collins or Boulder had any Tanos and I was sad that according to their website none supposedly did.

THEN today we were at the Pearl St Mall and we were talking past a shop and my eyes did a double take..... wait....that was a red boogie! No...it couldnt be....yes! Same shop, just a half a day later!

I was "this close" to buying a petite larceny (smaller than I thought it was going to be.which was a good thing, Monal Lethal is smaller as well) but I want grape and not blueberry. Plus they were more there than I thought they were supposed to be (they were in the low $200). I was in heaven! I loved seeing all the bags in person.

How weird is that!

OMG CRAZY!!!!!!! That would have been so funny if we were both in there at the same time drooling over Tano bags! LOL Do you remember the name of the store? They sure had that pomegranate boogie front and center! SO gorgeous!

I didnt pay attention either...I just made a mad run into the store! But after checking out a fantastic Boulder downtown map, I found it. Tano is listed under accessories!

ITA! I bought a watermelon boogie bucket on eBay - after CAREFUL deliberation, and LOTS of picture viewing. The colour is a bit washed out coral and not the delicious looking colour I saw in the pics. Oh well. It's a comfy bag, but I'm just not crazy about it!

Maybe it will grow on me!
