Consuela Opens Flagship Store in Katy, Showcasing Bold New Design at LaCenterra at Cinco Ranch

March 26 2025

Consuela, a fashion and lifestyle brand known for its colorful, handcrafted handbags and accessories, has opened the doors to its newest flagship store in the Houston area. Located in LaCenterra at Cinco Ranch in Katy, the 4,157-square-foot retail space is the latest expression of Consuela’s signature design philosophy, The Art of the Unmatched™—an eclectic, joyful blend of artistry, texture, and purpose.

Founded in Austin and León, Mexico, Consuela has built a national reputation for its bold handbags, artisan collaborations, and uplifting mission. Now celebrating its 20th anniversary, the brand continues its expansion with a brick-and-mortar store at 23501 Cinco Ranch Boulevard, set in one of the Houston area’s premier lifestyle shopping centers.

“This location holds a special place in my heart as I grew up just outside of Houston,” said Conni Reed, Founder and CEO of Consuela. “From day one, the Greater Houston market was incredibly supportive of Consuela. Expansion into Katy further strengthens those connections.”

Designed to reflect the vibrant energy that defines the brand, the new store showcases Consuela’s evolution from accessory maker to immersive lifestyle brand. Customers will find a wide array of Consuela’s bestselling totes, crossbody bags, wallets, and bag charms, alongside new product launches rooted in tradition and infused with creative innovation.

“This store is the embodiment of our The Art of the Unmatched™ design principle,” Reed said. “Layering industrial elements with handcrafted details, vintage finds, and artistic finishes has created a one-of-a-kind space. Every material, pattern, and finish reflect Consuela’s celebratory spirit.”

Inside, visitors are greeted with modern yet warm textures—plastered brick walls, shimmering mirrors, and reclaimed wood fixtures handcrafted by artisans in León. The store's exterior features a striking pink tile façade embossed with the Consuela Crest, setting the tone for what Reed calls “a celebration of joy, resilience, and cultural artistry.”

Consuela’s mission to Make Today Ridiculously Awesome is infused into every detail, from the handcrafted furniture to the thoughtful layout. For Reed, the new Katy flagship is not just a store—it’s a community space designed to uplift and inspire.

“My childhood trips to Mexico inspired me and left a lasting, life-changing impression,” Reed said. “Our products are produced by Mexican-owned factories and by artists and their communities. I’m humbled to partner with these artisans and celebrate their time-honored techniques of weaving, embroidery, bead work, and paper mâché. We share the honor of uplifting each other, growing together, and supporting the culture and heart of Mexico.”

With more than 1,200 independent retail accounts, a thriving e-commerce platform, and growing national presence through Dillard’s, Consuela continues to expand its footprint while staying rooted in its artistic heritage. The Katy store is the third corporate-owned location, and it reflects Consuela’s ongoing commitment to community, craftsmanship, and creativity.

“The collectability of Consuela excites me most,” Reed said. “As a mixed-media artist, transforming my design philosophy into bags makes each piece a functional work of art. Art makes you feel something, and each of our bags is designed to inspire joy—rooted in the spirit of resilience, bold living, authenticity, and fun.”

The new Consuela store in Katy is open Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Sundays from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. For more details and product information, visit www.consuelastyle.com.
