First Friday Rave: Eye Kandy

With all the problems this country faces, we tend to forget that life goes on and that people are still inspired to chase the American Dream. I'm going to rave today about an American businesswoman and her boutique Eye Kandy.

Dudes, this is a ladies' boutique. Now you may think this is of no interest to you, you're wrong. First, if you have a woman in your life, Christmas is coming up and this would be an excellent and painless way to do your shopping. The owner, Kandy, is extremely helpful, and can take care of your questions over the phone, send you pics of suggestions, handle the transaction and wrap and ship your gifts to you. All without you leaving your easy chair. Yeah, no excuses this year. Info on how to contact her at end of story. Second, this is a Patriot family. Support them.

Women, listen up, this place is chock full of adorable clothes and accessories that fall just enough out of the box to make you stand out in your group of friends. There isn't a single thing here that will land in the "What the Hell Was I Thinking" section of your closet. I know the pains of shopping for clothing without trying on stuff, but think ACCESSORIES. Oh yeah, Eye Kandy's got those. From Fredd and Basha purses painted by elephants (part of the proceeds go to an elephant rescue sanctuary) to scarves, shoes and jewelry, there are multiple avenues of self-expression to explore. But I have to warn you, the place is addictive.

Fredd and Basha Elephant Purse

Personal experience, first purchase was a Fredd and Basha purse that was big enough to haul all my stuff to football and basketball games (you know, hats, gloves, scarves, contraband snacks, beverages...) but not so big I'd have to check it as luggage. Kandy took my list of demands, searched her stock, and sent me pics of choices. After I decided, she handled the transaction over the phone, shipped it that day, and I had it in time for Friday night football. Now, I NEVER handle transactions over the phone, but these are THAT KIND OF PEOPLE. You remember, Old-Fashioned American Shopkeepers, the kind of people with integrity and a true belief in Customer Service. I had absolutely no problems doing business with Kandy over the phone. After the purse came the signature Kandy wallet. Both are absolutely beautiful in class and workmanship.

Eye Kandy is located at 253 C Mercer Street in Harmony, PA and the number to call for your Personal Shopper is (724) 777-6637. If you're in the area, stop in and say hey. I know you won't leave empty handed.

Dudes, you've got ONE MONTH to find your Lady something ultra special. I have wrapped this with a Big Bow and laid it in your lap. You have no excuses this year.
