Did you know that "devani" means vanity in Italian? Devani, one of our new shoes designers, makes delicious shoes appointed with top-quality italian leather. This new line, which only debuted last fall, is all about unique & fashion-forward design without the $1000 price tag...woohoo! Check out the two styles we have below, Marissa & France...

ALSO! We got a small shipment of Bella Designs Jewelry in yesterday. We know you love to stop in to browse Melissa's cute & reasonably priced pieces, so here's a quick preview, but of course stop by the shop to see them all!

Spring Shoes by Nanette Lepore

We mentioned them briefly in our last entry below, but these Nanette Lepore shoes deserve a whole blog entry of their own. While you can see for yourself that these styles truly are divine, it's worth noting an important detail you can't see in the photos...the soles of these shoes are a terrific shade of teal! We're thinking (hoping!) perhaps Nanette might make this her "signature sole color," similar to Christian Louboutin's signature red sole. Treat your toesies to whirl around periwinkle, and then around town, in these new styles!

Spring Shoshanna feels like a good dose of vitamin D...

After seeing our new Spring Shoshanna dresses on mannequins, it almost felt like each garment had acquired magical solar powers and was shining like the bright, warm May sun. OK...a bit dramatic, even for this blogger, but really, this collection of dresses almost makes you feel warmer just by looking at it! The bright coral feels radiant, and hey, we could all use a touch of that right now. Going to Gold Cup, the Derby or similar events this spring? Shoshanna is always an easy go-to designer for such occasions. Shop now while we've got the best selection!
