Don’t judge a purse by its cover. No, that’s not a typo; we are talking about purses here…and book covers. It should be no surprise that the most well-read city in the nation is home to a designer who managed to turn books into handbags. Mary Lydia Ryan a Seattleite for the past 19 years [...]continue
