Shop Michigan This Black Friday

Why fight the crowds this Black Friday when you can shop local deals from talented Michigan artisans right from the comfort of your own home? Yeah, I can’t think of a reason to go out either.

Shop an array of unique gift ideas from four of my favorite Michiganders – you’ll find beautiful photos of Michigan, eco-conscious fashions for the woman on the go, one of a kind upcycled jewelry, and fashion forward handbags at affordable prices. All are wonderful gift ideas for the upcoming holidays and all keep the money right here in the great lakes state!

Jenna Kator Collection
Growing up in Troy, Michigan, Jenna Kator always had the desire of becoming a business owner. Working as an automotive media planner she learned the ins and outs of marketing, and as the automotive industry in Metro Detroit took a downturn in 2008, Jenna found that it was an opportunity to showcase her own private label of designer handbags and accessories. Believing it was time to bring some light back into the Motor City, its suburbs, and the State of Michigan, Jenna combined her admiration for the designer handbags and accessories coming out of New York City with her appreciation of the west coast lifestyle to create a product to boost the confidence of women by allowing them to get in touch with their inner-fashionista, but at affordable price points.

Deal: Enjoy 10% off anything on the site, even showpieces from the Clearance Room (excludes gift certificates), with code “detmom” at checkout. Plus get FREE SHIPPING on your order with code “detmomfreeship”.


From left: Traverse City Tote, Cranbrook Messenger, Peninsula Drive Handbag, and the Holly Handbag. If you’d like to check out Jenna’s bags in person, stop by her in-store Annual Black Friday Sale, Friday 11/23/12.
