We love shoes…all shoes…can’t have too many…and we are thrilled to pieces about this season’s espadrille trend! They come in all shapes and price points, and color and pattern choices are vast. While we love the flat version for the comfy casual chic factor, we swoon for the dressier versions because they appeal to our passion for contrast and a touch of whimsy.

Here’s a sampling …which one catches your eyes??

These animal print ‘drilles are a neutral (animal print is our favorite neutral!). They go with just about everything.

These can be found at Shopbop. They are by Steven . ‘Nuff said.

We actually own a pair of these darlings…love the lace-up factor…and you can get them at Soludos.

We love a feminine touch…belles are girls after all…and lace is another trend that we can fully embrace! Why not sport these with your boyfriend jeans? A touch of tomboy and a dash of girly-girl adds up to the perfect summer look.

These Tory Burch are available at Shopbop but they are running out of sizes so you better get crackin’ !

And of course to take it up another notch we have a dreamy pair…but be forewarned they might break the piggy bank…but worth it…maybe…just sayin’….

Scrumptious . By Valentino at Nordstrom .

Sometimes an LBE (lil’ black espadrille) is what we are pining for and these are just what the doctor ordered.

From Topshop and available at Nordstrom . Love the leather, canvas and raffia textures!!

And where would we be without J.Crew? We belles often get a hankering for a J. Crew fix and these absolutely satisfied the craving.

Wear them with pants, jeans, shorts, skirts, sundresses. Can’t. Not. Wear. So there. Get them here J. Crew.

Belles love adornment…aka em”belle”ishments … And these fit the bill….and our feet!

From Kate Spade and you can get yourself a pair at Saks.

And lest you think we’d forget…you can always just put a bow on it! These will bowl you over….tee hee…

These beauties are from Gucci and you can get them at Nordstrom .

So there you have it…a selection that is beyond….
