Heres and Theres and Everywheres!


First off, isn't Autumn in Portland beautiful?! I used to hate any weather below 75 degrees, but this city is "warming" me up to chillier temps. A spot by the fireplace with a hot cuppa and a cuddle with the dog and the beau... not so bad.
If you couldn't tell by the pic above, we have our first Randall in the shop! It is red, and I am working on a blue one to put up next.


We'll get more in depth next time, but the Randall has a few new features- including micro suede lined cell phone pockets, an interior water bottle elastic, and a giant interior pouch for a laptop, tablet or your books/mags. Lovin' it!

As promised, I am working on a Getting to Know You post for the Margot. This bag kicks my butt. It is the most difficult to make in the line, but it is worth it! If I had a baby, this would no doubt be my diaper bag. When/if I get an iPad or tablet of some kind I may move to one full time (don't tell my current Lucy and Kimball!). I may also ask a bit of advice in that coming post. Get some consumer response!

For those of you new to the world of Nikolette, let me fill you in on a not-so-secret bit of information about our lives. We. Love. Breakfast! It is a weekend tradition to set the alarm and head to one of Portland's MANY breakfast/brunch establishments and throw the diet out the window.* And along the lines of Vegan Bags/ Vegan Living we have been popping into some of the many vegan eateries and PIGGING OUT!

Corn Waffles with raspberry sauce from Paradox Cafe. Big pile of yum.

Pumpkin dipped french toast from Blossoming Lotus. Everything on their menu blew my mind!
The giveaway with Skinned Knees ended this week and a new brown Lucy is off to the winner. Hope you love it, Erika!
So for now, everyone, stay tuned to nikolettebags.com for more Randall offerings and keep your eyes here for more about the Margot! Enjoy your day! (or week, or month, year, decade...)

*We quickly head to the gym to repent for our sins. Thank you WCF!
