The menswear shop State & Liberty opened recently at Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek where Pandora used to be. Check out their online selection here.

Lafayette Clocktower
It’s sad news that after six years in business, Bel & Bunna’s Books has closed at Lafayette Clocktower.

In addition to facing competition from Amazon, the COVID-19 pandemic likely made things even more challenging for the store. Despite this, I am grateful to have had the opportunity to shop there with my children over the years.
