Beatrice Valenzuela has a lot to be excited about right about now. She's just moved her thriving shoe business into a brick and mortar shop in Echo Park and she's also expecting a new baby!Valenzuela's shoe line has a serious cult following. I mean, serious. Her shoes are inspired by traditional footwear of her native country of Mexico and they pair incredibly well with your favorite pair of jeans, dresses, white pants—they're always unexpected, but I feel like they go with everything. I'm wearing this pair in cobalt blue right now and I never want to take them off, they're so comfortable, and just get more and more buttery with wear.Beyond sandals, shoes, and booties for men, women, and children, Valenzuela has cultivated a dynamic retail concept chock-full of goodies—from Agnes Baddoo's leather bags and hand-made ceramics from Central California to friendship bracelets and fireplace fans from Mexico City—where the shoes are manufactured. Valenzuela, who has lived in Echo Park for a decade, dreamed of moving into this very space, so the day it became available, she jumped on it. The store really just feels right at home on the block: It's authentic, it's sophisticated, and it's very Beatrice. Definitely worth an immediate visit if you're in L.A. [1547 Echo Park Ave. 90026], and if you're not: check out the shoes online—new colors and website updates coming soon!Keep up with Tomboy Style elsewhere: INSTAGRAM | FACEBOOK | TWITTER
