Metallic evening shoes will save your life. They can be worn with virtually any cocktail outfit, without the need to buy new shoes for every occasion.

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Every now and again, I spot a piece on sale and I have to have it. I need it. I cannot live without it. Recently, I spotted a jersey tee at Boden that takes a casual top to the next level, and I just needed to share.

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]

Those are so cute! I agree – i go with metallic for any evening events and it lets me get away with only having one real pair of evening shoes. Just wanted to give a quick thanks to Belle for the recommendation on the Commando tights – after some hunting (Nordstrom at Pentagon City was sold out – i”m assuming the Belle effect??) I got a pair and have to say they are great! So comfortable and the no waistband thing is great – can't believe no one thought of it sooner!
I've been experiencing the “Belle Effect” on several posted items. And I guess that is a good thing, that means things in DC are on the up-trend. Great shoes for a great price Belle.
Guess I'd better run out and get these now to avoid “Belle Effect.” Love this suggestion!!
I managed to find the Commando tights on amazon.. haven't been blown away by them though. They don't pinch at all, but then they tend to sag which is annoying.
Sagging? That's a new one.
Yeah, I'm wondering if I'm between sizes.. these just don't stay up.
I don't know whether to bless you or curse you . . . I just purchased these!
AND, I found a $20 coupon. yay!
Yay metallic shoes! Similarly, I love these Steve Madden Glitter pumps.
