Sharing is a two way street, belles! Remember when we told you about this fa-belle-ous footwear find…


Well, one of our best belle gal pals ordered those…and then went a little further down the rabbit hole and came up with even more magic!! 

This savvy belle found these from the same brilliant dupe designer…

Here she is sporting a sexy little kitten heel that looks a lot like a very high end designer we covet on the reg with the perfect amount of toe cleavage…and it looks like the real deal!!

Bonus points that they are available on Amazon

And they come in a multitude of colors so don’t be shy…get one of each!

a fab-belle-ous footwear find!!!

We are suckers for shoes and have been known to drop a coin or two on a really beautiful pair. We also like a great find at a fraction of the price. Alas, often these sub-par duplicates don’t even begin to compare in style, comfort and quality.

But every once in a while we score, and this is one such magical moment. 

We both covet Valentino and in particular the Rockstud Collection . The square-heeled version is one that has us drooling lately…

Swoon-worthy, aren’t they?? You can get the real deal here but they come at a hefty price. 
We were looking for a more financially fiscal version as we weren’t sure we would get the price-per-wear out of them.  And did we ever find an awesome dupe!!!!

Check THESE out…


We ordered them here and they are perfect!! Wore them right out of the box for hours the first day!

We have been wearing them practically every day since!!! 

Thank you Kaitlyn Pan and Amazon

You need!!

We are creatures of habit and both of us prefer a neutral palette in our wardrobe.    Grey in all of its many hues and tones is a key player in our closets. It holds its own monochromatically, embraces other neutrals beautifully, and handles any pop of color with ease.

Here are fifty or so of our favorite pieces in no order of preference….we adore it all!
