Spicer on 3rd

After having filled a bag full of baked goodies a couple of doors down, I was welcomed into Spicer by a elegantly floral fragrance (i.e. not your grannie’s super perfumey flowers-​punching-​you-​in-​the-​face soap/​candles/​potpourri). There are many goodies to check out in this store, including toys, jewelry, cards, all kinds of knick knacks I want but don’t need, the popular Spicer bags in many shapes and colors and sizes, cute baby things, many cork-​inspired items, and much more. The amazing scent turned out to be from a jasmine reed diffuser, which was sold out. They also have candles, soaps, and so many other goodies I wish I could buy all of.
Spicer would be a great place to buy unique gifts for oneself or for others. It’s the kind of store you peruse around and can likely find at least one thing you like. I would have bought that jasmine diffuser if it wasn’t sold out! Maybe next time, Spicer :)

I wandered in here after going to the cheese shop down the block. I’m not familiar with their bags, nor did I purchase one, but they had cute jewelry and small gift items. My sister’s birthday was coming up, so I got her a necklace and earrings. I may have bought myself some stuff too.
I don’t know how often the inventory changes, but it’s not too cluttered and easy to look around. They also nicely packaged my gifts.

Spicer bags are the best, they are durable, great looking and fit seamlessly with any wardrobe. It doesnt hurt that so many women who have had their bags for decades, still rave about how they are still making good use of their Spicer bags. They are all well priced for a lifetimes worth of bag usage! In addition to that, the entire team is comprised of the most lovely women!

Not sure how I survived before I had my first Sally Spicer bag. Every bag that I’ve had in the past (non-​Sally Spicer brand) always ended up falling apart after a few months because of the wear and tear that I put them through. I need an everyday bag to carry my «life» in (aka gym clothes, shoes, makeup, lotion… I could go on and on). When I go out with my girls for a night on the town, I need something simple and elegant. For class I need a bag that can sustain the weight of my books and all the snacks that get me through the lectures. All the above has been answered by Sally Spicer Bags. I have about 10+ different bags and each one gets its full use.
I use my bocce bag for my «every day» bag and I get compliments where ever I go. People on the street have stopped me to ask where I got my bag from. The urban clutch has two different uses for me — 1. my wallet (holds everything I need) and 2. my evening clutch because it is the perfect size and has compartments to hold my cards, money, lipstick, etc. The weekender has traveled with me to San Diego, Mexico, and Tahoe. It is the best companion for an airplane carry-​on (no need to check luggage) or for a fun weekend away with the girls.
At least twice a year, Sally introduces new fabrics (and sometimes new bags!) to stay current with the ever changing trends and her choices always fit in seamlessly. Her selection always has something for everyone and I seem to have a difficult time picking one, because I usually want them all.
A bonus about her bags and her company is that it is based in San Francisco and the bags are also made in San Francisco. Now a days, that is hard to come by. Not to mention, the woman behind the company (THE Sally Spicer) is such a charming and sweet woman.

I purchased a bag online but ordered the wrong style. So I called Sally Spicer Bags and since I live locally they said to drop by. So I did a few days later and I was happlily surprised at the service I received. First I spoke to Calan (sorry if I spelled that incorrectly) and she was more than helpful. She was not only pleasant to talk to but very friendly. We chatted about the styles of bags and she asked what were my wife’s tastes. She just told me to visit their place to have a look for myself at all the available styles.
When I arrived I was welcomed like an old friend. That was nice. Sally Spicer herself was there too to offer some selection help. Both Calan and Sally were so pleasant to talk to and they made me feel like they truely appreciated my business.
My wife has been collecting Sally Spicer bags for years now and from my experience with Calan and Sally she will continue to support them.

Wonderful bags, beautiful colors and patterns. There’s always something new, and interesting… All beautiful bags are handmade in the USA!

I love Sally Spicer Bags! I got one for each of my bridesmaids and they loved them. They all voted the bags, «Cutest and most usable bridesmaid gift.» It’s awesome to see them toting them around and actually getting use out them.
I use my weekender tote all the time, it’s a great carry-​on size for weekend trips away.

I am a total bag lady. My bags have bags. I love bags with bags on top. I seriously have a trunk full of everything from vintage purses to Hello Kitty back packs.
Spicer has an array of more sophisticated products for the more «grown up» me, but without being stuffy.
Great selection of adorable yet sturdy quality bags!

Great bags that are designed locally. Her fabrics are far more interesting than what you find in most retail stores. They make great gifts for out of towners because of the cool SF logo. If you are lucky enough to get invited to one of her sample sales, you should definatly go!
PS It’s actually Sally Spicer… I’m not sure why it shows up as Spicer Sally…
