Jingle Bell fabulousness - Giveaway!

I'm very excited to share this giveaway of the iconic Jingle Bell shoe from Bernardo Shoes with you my wonderful readers. Founded in 1946 Bernardo shoe company believes that classic, well crafted shoes never go out of style! I love, love, love that their core collection is still available, many of these styles date back to the 1950's and 60's and were worn by trend and jet setters such as Lily Pulitzer and Jackie O. The jingle bell is hand crafted in Italy and looks fabulous with anything from summer kaftans to maxi dresses. I know, I own a pair myself. (And btw the bells don't jingle)!  What's better then fabulous fashion with a rich history?

So here are the deets on the giveaway. Simply "like" Bernardo's facebook page, then click back here and leave a comment about why you love the "Jingle Bell". Bernardo is kindly offering to give away five pairs of this beautiful shoe. I'll be randomly draw five names next Monday, August the 20th. (one entry per person please). Good Luck! 
"This incredible original was used in several fashion photo shoots from 1963-1966.  Described as "music for the feet" in Vogue July 1965.  This re-issue of the style is hand-crafted in Italy of high quality materials."

by photographer Art Kane from a shoot in the 1960's.
