Fashion Slow Lane!

What are you looking forward to in New Year? I am looking forward to a more relaxing life style, new opportunities and hopefully some fun travel.  I did not get to go very many places in 2012 and it was a really stressful year, so I am looking forward to a new year.    Happy New Year! Italy

It seems like bad things always happen around Christmas time.  Like wtf is up with mass shootings in grade schools?  Does everyone really need to own a gun.  Seems to me they kill more people than help.  You dont hear many stories about how a gun saved 20 young students, you just hear about how they killed them. I dont need a gun to protect myself.  I figure if someone wants to kill me they will and I will get to heaven sooner.  This world is not my home, I am just passing through, really.  As we all are.  But it would be nice if the world was more like heaven instead of hell, at least around the holidays. I avoid the news. You should to. Be well and hug your kid and dog.

Have you started shopping yet?  Happy Holidays everyone.  I don't do much for decor around here, just have a fake tree with some fun ornaments.  I usually go south for the holidays to La La land.  I hope to have a great 2013.   2012 was a tough rough year for me, so its going to be interesting to see 2013. Have a nice holiday.... Cheers, Rocco

Cyber Monday Post: Here we go.... Check out our great deals online at www.roccoedante.com We have bags and leather goods for up to 70% off.  Our collection is only carried in a few Seattle stores at this time.   For all the great deals you will have to order online.  All sales are final if the item in on sale. Of course you can always email me and let me know if you want to exchange the color for another sale item of the same price point.  I always try to make the customers happy (:  I just hate it when someone gets a $500 bag for $200 and then they want to return it.   The good news is that rarely happens because our bags are so awesome and the quality is usually beyond what the customer was expecting. I don't know how long the good deals will last, maybe until the end of the year - so you might as well shop now!!!!   Below are some photos of some of my favorite things.  They are not Oprah's favorite things, but they are my favorite thi...
