Beautiful Moccasins = Beatrice Valenzuela
I walked into Vivier and Bentley www.vivierandbentley.com
and there before me were the sweetest green leather moccasins I had ever seen. Alas, the size 7 were sold out, but at least I had stumbled upon this beautiful artisan that makes shoes in the old Mexican tradition.

It just so happens others have discovered Beatrice Valenzuela. Her home is featured this month on Apartment Therapy. She and her boyfriend Ramsey have created a lovely haven in Echo Park mixing modern pieces with hand crafted gems.
