Accessories – New York - NYC

My name is Briana Melendez & I'm a native New Yorker born and raised in Queens. I've always held a special place in my heart for style and fashion. It was probably born during childhood shopping trips with my grandmother & my love of Fashion Plates. A few years after I graduated college I decided to further pursue my interest and enrolled in a few non-matriculated classes at FIT to provide myself with a base & working knowledge of sewing and design. My handcrafted bags are made from a mix of up-cycled & new fabrics. My Etsy store Panchita's Bodega opened online during the summer of 2015.
