Such a great store! The owner is so sweet and brings in a great selection of quality items. I love these pants, they have a great shape, quality made and the fabric feels good on my body.

So good!
I picked up one scent on my last trip and fell in love (Memoirs of a Tresspasser) and this trip wanted to try the others outside the shop. Thankfully they had the Short Story collection in back and I get to try 8 scents on my time at home snd about to see how they work for me. Fabulous product and the sample size vials are perfect to find the right scent for the right mood.

These are so cute! Perfect size to slip in on top of a wrapped gift, or a candy bar.

Cozy & cute
Really cozy and cute socks. I got the mustard color and am really enjoying them. The wool is soft, but not itchy, and they're well made.

Zerra & Co lip tint - love!
I got the sugar plum lip tint, and it's awesome! I've been wearing it every day since I got it. I have a million skin/contact allergies, so I have to be really careful with any kind of makeup or lip balm I wear, otherwise I break out in an eczema rash, but this has really simple and clean ingredients. The color is subtle but noticeable. I'm always on the lookout for makeup brands like this, which are clean (and have compostable packaging), so I'm glad to have found Zerra & Co. I'll be buying more colors!

Wool Jacquard Socks
Super soft
I love the feel of these socks. Order as a gift from my daughter’s wish list and now I’m not sure I want to give them away!

I love a soft toothie
Soft toothbrushes are my jam, and I asked Ari about this one. She said it starts out a little stiff (true) but softens up quick (also true). I love not putting plastic in my mouth, so this is a nice and affordable alternative to some of the usual toothbrush garbage.
