The Many Bags Of

The Many Bags of Capretto South Miami

Vlad and I moved back to Florida in September of last year after four years in New York City. We are still spending a ton of time in NYC, but it’s nice to be back to my roots in South Florida. Over the past few years, Miami has been growing and turning into a fashion, design and art hub, all nestled alongside the warm, sunny beaches.

CAPRETTO is a luxury boutique located in the heart of South Miami, and one of few independent designer speciality stores in the US. The shop is filled with high-end shoes and bags from brands like Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, Valentino and more. I grew up going to the store with my mom when she wanted to add a new accessory to her collection, and recently Vlad and I popped in to meet the team.

Below, you can also meet the team of CAPRETTO South Miami and see the fabulous bags they carry to work. All of the bags and shoes the team was wearing are available at Capretto (they take phone orders, too), so if you are ever in Miami, make sure to stop in and tell them PurseBlog sent you!

    Really love this site, but the majority of the profiles are of Caucasians. Disappointing. Anyway, looks like the place to job when in that part of Florida.

    Megs, I find it interesting that your collection of designer bags started in college. You seem to be from an affluent background, one would think you grew up carrying LV’s and Gucci’s in high school.

      What does race have to do with anything here? White women don’t carry different bags than, say, a black or Asian woman. It’s about the fashion, not the race.

        Just saying the majority of the people showcased her are white people.

        That’s pretty irrelevant to the article.

        If your point is that all you care about is color, then yes, it stands.

        How do you know that the handbags of Asian- and African-American women are the same if we don’t see what they carry?

        It’s the staff of a company. I’m positive that Capretto doesn’t hire people based on race.
        If a black, Asian, Indian, or Hispanic person was the best candidate for the job, they would’ve been hired.

        Not everything has to be a racial issue. The quicker you understand that, the happier you will be.

      We always try to feature diverse women who reflect our diverse readership. This one includes women of Pakistani, Cuban, Argentinian and Venezuelan backgrounds, and we’re very proud of that!

    While browsing on my iPhone, it took me six tries to get this article open. Every time I clicked, the site would redirect to spam and open my App Store. I love PurseBlog but I really hope you guys can address this issue.
    Also, great article! These people all look so fun and they really seem to enjoy their jobs, but who wouldn’t!

    1. Megs Mahoney Dusil Avatar

      That’s weird because the PurseBlog website isn’t being run from an app, just a mobile version of the site should pop up. I’ll have Vlad look into this!

    Nothing to with theses handbags or discussion, but I CANNOT get logged in to the purse forum and more frustrating I CANNOT get anyone to help figure out the problem. I have sent numerous emails but without no help. What happened to good service, especially when it states contact us at the bottom of the page and there is no one to contact but an email address. It just goes in circles and I’m about done with tpf.

      Can you send me an email, [email protected] – I’ll try to help you!

    Great bags, especially the Lanvin fringe tote and the Sugar Bag. Any idea who makes the snakeskin bucket bag on the shelf behind Lidia in slide 2?
