With the “bunny” making plans to hop on the trail soon, we figured you belles might want some Easter gift ideas for all of your little (or big) chickadees. We have curated quite an impressive list…if we do say so ourselves! We will reveal a category each day this week…a belle has to pace herself! So get ready to start clickin’ and orderin’ (and you might want to put an extra-big basket on the porch for the UPS man…just sayin’).

Starting with Mom…sister…hostess…any fellow-belle (or ourselves, why not?) in need of a little something for the holiday:

We are loving these Bel Air Mini Scoop Vases from Jonathan Adler…

From Kelverum on Etsy, how about these cute little candle holders?
Perfect for the holiday table!

And while we are focusing on the table…we have two more options…
Any belle would love a collection of these vases from Terrain…

or some color-pop napkins from The Little Market
Hand-made in Guatemala by women working with the Mayan Hands organization…a win-win!

For the aroma of a fresh spring bouquet that lasts and lasts…a candle is another winner!
This one from Henri Bendel does just the trick!

Or how about bringing a little giggle to the morning coffee routine…
Find this one at Society 6.

And for the foodie…how about a taste of the Holy Land…perfect for Easter/Passover…
Available at Amazon…but we actually found ours at Anthropologie.

And that’s not the end of it, belles! Stay tuned for tomorrow’s edition of belle-ringers!

Fringe has been a big trend, but we think tassels may even be bigger…and not for nothin’ either because they can be a lot easier to carry off without looking like you’re trying to relive the 70’s!

A few of our favorites…

In the kicks department:

Thank you j.crew! And, of course, for you girls who are afraid of heights, j.crew has a flat version:

Comfy and stylish…a win-win!

Here’s a little beauty that looks way more expensive that it is, making it virtually irresistible. From Nordstrom…

It’s no secret…we belles do love to make a statement with a shoe, and this one from shopbop surely fits the bill…and then some!

And we couldn’t resist throwing out an option for the baby belles, also from j.crew!

Movin’ on, belles…because we love a good pocketbook and tassels add just the right amount of sass…

This one from Rebecca Minkoff shows that this smart-cookie designer knows her way around a purse!

And we can’t leave Tory out! This cross-body from Tory Burch is cross-generational…meaning all the women in the family will be having hissy fits over this one.

And it wouldn’t be right to ignore the inside of the purse, now would it???

From Banana Republic…

. Awesome-ness…just sayin’.

Or how about this monogrammed little beauty (belles always love a monogram)!! Get it at Clare V…

And then there is always a phone case, ’cause the phone could use a little fashion boost, too! From Henri Bendel:

And our ears could always stand a little extra “something-something”. These two from shopbop are the perfect way to add a little pizzazz to a classic ensemble…
