Adventures in Abejas
Any girl would be quick to venture into Abejas, a Houston owned and operated boutique. Nestled right in between Highway 59 and Reliant Stadium on Kirby. This cozy boutique is full of unique finds from belts to 'Ketohs', a name for an amazing and unique cuff that you wear as a bracelet.
Owner Christina Nicodemus,opened the boutique in 1996.
I had the privilege of modeling on Mia's Style Files once again at Abejas this morning for a Rodeo Chic segment. I met with Ryan Bell, one of the Abeja's girls at 10 AM sharp to dress in the apparel that I modeled today. I was greeted with a warm smile and overcome by her excitement to get me in the dressing room to start trying on the apparel she had put together. Everything was just lovely! From the shabby chic feel to the store to the hand made totes from Argentina this place definitely had a unique feel to it and a rodeo chic appeal.
As Mia & Shannon filmed the segment I had the opportunity to play around with pieces and try on apparel once again to decide on my favorites - which was the 'Abejas Pleated Duster' and the neutral loose top (which is in the video below, with the metallic necklace). These pieces can be worn year round, not only for rodeo but over a tank & jeans for the spring and for the summer over a bathing suit with cute wedges or flip-flops. I am in love with all of Abejas' apparel. It's easy to get swept away in this store but I must stick to my favorites, which is a hard thing to do when you like just about everything!
If you're in a rush for rodeo apparel Abejas is located on Kirby a few minutes up from Reliant. Coming from 45 head directly up Kirby Reliant Stadium will be on your right & Abejas will be located on the left (right after Azuma). If you're coming from 59 turning right or left onto Kirby you will pass Goode Company Taqueria (on your right) & Goode Company Bar-B-Que on your left...keep on goin...you'll see Abejas directly to your right in a shopping center with Area (furniture store) and Chipotle. Hope that helps you guys! Swing by after work before you head out to the rodeo to see your favorite artist play. You'll look good & feel good in your new rodeo chic wear! Enjoy!
