Be&D Sample SaleBe&D Sample Sale

In my head, I was just hoping to spot a pair of Be&D Brightlight Big City sneakers at the sale. I was praying to the fashion gods, that if I got there early enough there would be at least a sample pair in my size. To my dismay, there were no sneakers in sight but the sale had so many other goodies that I quickly got over my hissy fit; it was nothing more than a mere #flygirlproblem.

The Be&D showroom was plentiful;tons of merchandise. The first rooms holds shoes, belts and small leather goods such as wallets, studded headbands and iPad cases.

The stock shoe selection was great- ranging from camo booties, studded flats, leopard sandals and studded mules. Shoe samples were $25 and they had numerous sizes. Stock shoes prices varied. I saw a couple priced at $50 and others at $150.

The bag selection is like a studded, exotic skin heaven!   Bags start at $125. The Pippa Crossbody in various colors is priced at $125 (originally $248) and the Jordan Drawstring price varies on the bag’s skin.

 

The sale continues until Friday, May 4th.
