While it’s hard to believe December is upon us, the bessie blue crew couldn’t be more excited about the holiday season.  This week, we celebrated Belmont Center’s third annual Midnight Madness.  On Monday evening, along with other participating Belmont Center shops, we opened our doors until midnight and offered increasing discounts as the clock ticked closer and closer to midnight.  We had a blast, visiting with both first-time and regular customers; enjoying festive treats and hot cider; helping people find the perfect holiday gifts for their loved ones; and wrapping dozens and dozens of presents!  Thanks to all who joined us for this festive celebration and made this event a success for the community for the third year running.

If you missed out on the madness, not to worry.  The season for giving is far from over, and we even have another fun event coming up next week!  On Thursday, December 13, bessie blue will be hosting Men’s Night from 6-9pm.  Gentleman, we hear you: you don’t like to shop.  Which is why we are making it easy for you this year.  Here’s how it works:

Just remind your lovely lady to drop by the store and fill out a wishlist of her favorite items.  She will give US all the important details like color, size, etc. so that YOU don’t have to remember a thing!  In fact, the only thing you need to remember is to join us on Thursday, and we will help you shop any and all items on her wishlist.  While you shop, you can enjoy mini-hotdogs and beer from the Craft Beer Cellar.  Not only are you guaranteed to find a gift that she loves, but there’s more in it for you too!  Men’s Night guy shoppers will get to leave with a special men’s scarf that we ordered just for you…for free!  So mark your calendars, and we will see you then!

Guys, get it right this year: shop Men’s Night, shop bessie blue.

NYDJ Sheri Slim Leg

This spring, colored denim is all the rage–and we are totally and completely obsessed.  Can you blame us?  Bright colors give your look an instant pop, and with so many fabulous colors to choose from, you’re bound to find the perfect pair (or two!).  At bessie, we are especially in love with the Sheri Slim Leg from Not Your Daughter’s Jeans, which show off your curves in bright colors like cobalt blue and purplink pink.

J Brand Super Skinny

If you’re not sure you’re ready to take the plunge into such bold colors, we know you’ll get there eventually…  In the meantime, you can’t go wrong with classic white.  We can’t get enough of the clean sophistication of white hot pants.  Our favorites include NYDJ’s Sheri Slim Leg in optic white and J Brand’s Super Skinny.

Looking for something in between?  Ease your way into color with the Skyline Ankle Peg in dijon from Paige.  This neutral bright is irresistible, and the golden yellow transitions seamlessly from spring to summer.

Sometimes a girl needs a bit of glamour in her life, which is why we couldn’t be more thrilled about bessie’s three new jewelry lines: Belle Noel, Low Luv, and Rachel Leigh.  Each collection offers a range of unique pieces to help bring a little glam to your look this season.  Belle Noel features bold yet functional jewelry that transitions seamlessly from day to night; Low Luv brings a low-key yet edgy style; and Rachel Leigh offers luxe, vintage-inspired pieces.  The bessie crew is especially in love with the Wishbone Collection from Belle Noel, but with three different aesthetics to choose from, you’re sure to find a statement piece that speaks to you.  Stop by and see for yourself!

Spring has sprung!  At least it did last week–and that it itself was reason to celebrate.  But New England weather is crazy and unpredictable, and we’re a little bit less satisfied with mother nature this week… So we thought we would offer you a different reason to celebrate: 25% off!   This weekend only (Saturday, March 31 and Sunday, April 1), save 25% on one special item of your choosing using the coupon below!  What better opportunity to complete your spring/summer wardrobe?  We promise this is NOT an April Fool’s prank; after all, would we joke about savings this fabulous?!  Happy shopping!

Here’s the skinny on J Brand’s new denim legging: the Super Skinny has a flattering fit that can take you from your daily errands to a night out.  bessie blue is all about making life easier for the gal on the go, and what could be more convenient (or more fabulous) than an all-in-one denim with a sleek, slimming silhouette?  Plus, you’ve got options; get your skinny on with a black, dark, or medium wash denim.  The light weight of these skinnies makes them the perfect addition to your spring and summer denim collection. We couldn’t be more excited!

This spring, bessie blue is seeing stripes, thanks to the amazing tops and tees we have in the store, with more fabulous pieces arriving daily.  Stripes are one of spring’s most fun and wearable trends.  Pay no mind to the notion that horizontal stripes widen you; the key is to wear your stripes with a slimming cut.  You can have fun experimenting with different kinds of stripes, channeling a nautical look, the artistic, and even the psychedelic–all depending on the color and look of your stripes.  Stop by to check out bessie’s selection, and let our talented team of stylists help you find the striped look that is right for you.  You’ll be seeing stripes soon too!
