Check out Bella's Boutique's newest styles of Designer Denim all summer long!!

New this week...William Rast Stella Bootcut in Oak Tree wash.

Stella is a slim bootcut with an 18 inch opening at the bottom, a great transition from a skinny back to to a bootbut. Oak Tree has a soft hand to it, sure to rival those old comfies you can't part with. Oak Tree wash is light and clean (meaning no holes or abrasions in the fabric but the wash gives a slightly warn and warm look through it's coloring. The light weight fabric is perfect for summer denim.

Price point is now lower at $152.00.

Available soon at shopbellasboutique.com and is currently in stock, while supplies last at Bella's Boutique in the Riverside Plaza.

Hi there,

Spring is only a few days away and we ran across this William Rast press piece of Jessica Simpson featured on the cover of Self Magazine. Jessica looks great in everything but we especially think that she got it right with her William Rast Savoy jeans paired back to a bright, fun and flirty red top.

New Year... New Fashion

2009-01-13T17:57:00.000-08:00

Happy 2009 Everyone,

We hope that everyone has made their New Year's Resolution, and hasn't broken them yet :). It's only the 13th day of the New Year but we are already planning for a prosperous and inspired year for all of 2009.

Coming up this week for Bella's we will be attending the Los Angeles Market week to pick out the Spring and Pre-Summer collections that will soon fill the cabinets and shelves in the store. This Spring we are most excited for the Swim Suit deliveries from VIX and Salinas that are going to transition the store into a summer must stop for suits, cover up's, adorable jeweled flip flops (we have more this year than any other--- and they are CUTE), designer denim shorts and all the must have basics.

Going with the theme of the year and saving some cash, we are also paying close attention to price points. Our basic layering spaghetti strap tank tops that everyone loves are $15.00 and and jeweled flip flops are $46-$78. Spring and Summer dresses priced at $42 are starting to make their way in already and they are stunning. We know that all have made adjustments this New Year and so have we. We will continue to carry our designer labels just the same but will also be adding some middle of the range tops and accessories!

What else have we been up to you ask...? Bella's is working with a local organization, "Stroller Strides," that hosts exercise sessions for Mom's to come out with their kids in strollers and as a group they work-out in the parks and surrounding neighborhood. Both safe and community orientated we are excited to promote their expansion into yet another one of the local parks. Good job Mom's! Come see us when your ready for those summer mini dresses and suits ;)

We are also working to help launch a new local fashion magazine. "ieStyle" magazine is a great magazine that focuses on local boutiques and local fashion. The Inland Empire is sometimes over shadowed but surrounding Orange County and Los Angeles but "ieStyle" understands that Riverside, Corona, Redlands and other surrounding areas are on the fashion radar more now than ever. When customers purchase an item from Bella's Boutique they receive a free copy of the magazine as a gift with purchase. It is an awesome size too!!! It fits in your purse (think TeenVogue), it's perfect and we couldn't be more thrilled to be working with a publication that understands what we are about and the customer we cater to. Pick it up if you have a chance, it's $2.99 on the stands and free with purchase in Bella's. You can also check out their website at iestylemagazine.com.

We can't wait to fill you in next week after we attend the Los Angeles Market... Stay tuned to hear more about all that is fabulous for Spring and Summer. Don't forget the fashion quote below, we know it's your favorite part... Indulge! :)

"It's not about age. It's about taste, and it's about lifestyle. I believe women of all ages can wear anything," Ralph Lauren.

It's Been A While... But We're Back

2008-11-21T13:03:00.000-08:00

Hi All,

Can I apologize to all those that have read our one post and wanted more but never got it. We hope all is forgiven because we are making our "Britney" like comeback and plan to be better than ever!

We have been a little side-tracked lately with all that is going on in the world of Bella's Boutique

Guess what?!?! We have huge plans for shopbellasboutique.com and for the Riverside location. We are planning on becoming increasingly active in our community beginning with the gift basket we will be raffling off to support a local battered women's foundation for the holiday season.

In addition to working with charities Bella's will be featured in a fashion show on the roof top of the Riverside Art Museum, showcasing 10 looks from the stores selection. (We will post more info on the event later). We couldn't be more thrilled with what we have been able to achieve in only a few months and can't wait to be involved in many, many more...

Oh, also shopbellasboutique.com is running an "earlybird" promotion valid November 21st- November 30th. The promotion is 20% off taken off at checkout from your entire order by entering the "earlybird" code. Sorry we almost forgot to tell you, how rude of us. Check out what Bella's has to offer at http://www.shopbellasboutique.com/.

Enjoy.

I'm Sorry...Have we met? Let Us Introduce Ourselves!

2008-06-13T00:08:00.000-07:00

Hello Fabulous Lady!

There are so many ways to go about introducing Bella’s Boutique and let us not forget, Bella’s Blog.
Let’s start with the seams that hold the ensemble together.
Our beloved and prized clothing brands.
William Rast, People’s Liberation, Franki B, Paige and Joe’s Jeans create our denim selection. And it is our Bella’s promise to bring you a selection large enough that you are sure to fall in love with a pair of sassy straight legs or bold boot cuts.
Bella’s Boutique is nestled, physically in the Inland Empire with 3 locations in Riverside, Corona and Chino Hills.
But this… meaning the great big World Wide Web, is what we hope will create our fourth location and what will bring Bella’s to you as a resource for fashionable conversation and lasting relationships.
Shopbellasboutique.com has been a work in progress for nearly two years and it couldn’t have come at more exciting time that we have finally launched with a product and place that we are ecstatic about… and so ready for.
So here we are… and this is where we will be, continuously.
Blogging away whenever a thought or inspiration comes to mind… so stay tuned, we love to talk! We are all about the fashion gossip.
Oh, and forgive us for being slightly behind the curve but for all of you MySpace savvy ladies we now have a “Space” of our own, so send us a friend request!
Leary of the MySpace generation we never realized how many of our customers, brands and businesses were gaining friends and exposure through the networking site. (You can find the link to our “space” on the web site homepage.)
Don’t rush off just yet though… Let talk about this blog thing.
We decided to create a blog to connect with customers who can’t stroll in with their morning coffee or join us for special parties or events, and this is why…
We want to meet and chat with you. It’s the way we have developed all of the stores in the Inland Empire and love the company we have found in our return customers.
Through this blog we will update you about new and great styles we are excited for. The buyers will be giving us constant feedback for what styles are on there way and what’s new and “it” for future months.
Excited yet? Okay, maybe this will help…
Imagine this.
You wake up and check your email to find that we have blogged. As you enjoy your Starbucks Venti Drip (or Folgers Select… what your java of choice is) and you curl up in your comfy Juicy Sweatsuit you’ll see that the new Juicy Accessories and Free People shipments came in and guess what… They are adorable.
How do you know? Well, because we told you! On the blog.
When you need that afternoon pick me up, click on your “favorites” link on your web browser and find us (we better be there) to inspire the fashionista inside you.
We’ll have tons of fun, inspiring quotes and treat our conversations as though it was Sunday brunch with our best girl friends! (Think Sex in the City) Random, yet memorable and most importantly, Fabulous.
To end our first Bella’s Blog…we’ll leave you with a quote from Yves Saint Laurent,

“Fashions fade, style is eternal.”

Embrace that lovely ladies!
