We love a purchase to perk up our Monday…and we love sharing our recent obsessions with our belle-friends!!
A current obsession…this shoe in “of-the-moment blush”…
From Steve Madden via Nordstrom
And while it’s on SALE…why not try a color for next season…
And for you local Greenville belles, and immediate gratification, MUSE has these…
This Rebecca Minkoff at Muse is perfect for now and later!
And this Vince Camuto (again, at Muse) features that “easy-on, easy-off” zipper…’cause sometimes a belle can get impatient with all those buckles!! Just sayin’
Obsessed yet? Nothin’ better than a purchase to kick off the week!!

So…if you haven’t guessed…we love a good shoe. You might say we both border on obsession, like that’s a bad thing or somethin’! Anyway, we ran across one the other day that really rang our belle!!
Ya know how you find a great-looking shoe, but you are in need of bronze and it only comes in black? Or you need basic black but it only comes in snakeskin? Well…this little stunner comes in all of the above!!
May we introduce…The Via Spiga Leesa sandal available at Nordstrom.
Take a gander…
in bronze
in black & white snake
in fuschia snake
in gunmetal
in black patent
With a classic heel…not too high, not too low…and a price that isn’t outrageous ($195), this one (or two or three) should be ringin’ your belle as well!!
Get clickin’…the UPS man is just lookin’ for something to do!

Posted in fashion forward, friday friend 1-1
We were, of course, glued to the Academy Awards Sunday night…watching for all of the big fashion moments…and there were almost too many to count!! (good and bad, just sayin’). One of our favorites…
…Margot Robbie with this to-die-for bauble around her neck!! Now THAT’s quite a statement she’s making there!! And…notice…it even has a hint of fringe (remember yesterday, belles?)
Statement necklaces are super “in” right now, and they seem to us (so therefore it must be true!!) to come in and out of fashion on a pretty regular basis. So we think all belles should have one (or two) in their repertoire, because belles have never been afraid of makin’ a statement. We’ve found some great luxe options and, because we are all about a smashing frugal find, we found some awesome pocketbook-friendly choices as well (you’re welcome).
We have long admired the talent and design of dylanex, masters of the statement piece…necklaces to die for, and rings, too, but we need to stay focused for a mo. These pieces are detailed, gorgeous, forever pieces of art.
Let’s take a peak at our luxe label faves first:
RILEY, FRANKIE AND BOBBIE
All above photos via dylanex
Our pocketbooks aren’t quite fattened up enough to invest in these beauties quite yet, so we went on the hunt for something that would do for the time being. Well…we about fell out when we discovered that our favorite go-to for reasonable, of-the-moment jewelry has a slew of very clever dupes.
Check out our fave finds from baublebar…(zee bank accounts are lovin’ these too!)
CLEOPATRA, PEARL ORWELL, ELEANOR
Keep in mind, y’all don’t have to wait for an elegant evening to get your fancy on!! Think out of the box and wear them with your jeans and button down shirts.
Go make that statement, belles!
