Urban Village Raleigh

Meet Brooks Murphrey: Co-Owner of the adorable Raleigh, NC boutique, Urban Village.  Brooks and I went to high school together in Raleigh and I am so excited for her new business venture and LOVE the goodies she and her partner, Jennifer Harriss, choose for their stores.  


From Brooks:

Urban Village specializes in fine stationery, invitations, gifts, furniture and home décor.  We have a distinct selection in a unique setting that provides for a comfortable and personal shopping experience.  Our wide variety of merchandise makes us special.  We have an eclectic mix of items that will suit any individual or occasion. 
Jennifer Harriss opened the first location of Urban Village in 2008 in Edenton, North Carolina. Jennifer and Brooks Murphrey partnered to open an additional store in Raleigh in November, 2011.  We wanted to share our sense of style and offer unique finds in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.  Urban Village offers stationery and invitations that can be printed in house in usually just one day. We also represent several lines of beautifully engraved and letterpress papers which can be personally designed for a custom product.  


Check out a small selection of the great products they carry..

Monogrammed Mondays: Tote Bags

I think I have more tote bags than shoes...ALL monogrammed.  From traditional to mod these come in every shape and size.  My personal favorite is a multi colored paisley tote with a chocolate brown monogram I have used over and over again.  What's our favorite style?

LL BEAN
These durable totes come in all colors and sizes.  They are easy on the wallet and make wonderful weekend bags and gifts!
 

SCOUT BAGS
These multi-design and patterned bags are AWESOME!  You can find them online or locally in SC at Oops!
My personal favorites are the Weekender, the Pocket Rocket and the Deano.  Check out InviteCottage for a huge selection with monogramming!
