This time of year and particularly this year I feel very passionate about shopping local and to take it one step further Launch HTX is featuring ONLY Houston designers, artists and craftsman. I have loved Launch and the concept since they first launched before the Super Bowl. Sydney Dao and her team have given emerging talent just the place to launch and or sell their wares. I am privileged to use my blog to feature one of my favorite items from the brand…VENOM Handbags!
