Bella Fiore — Attraction in Ocracoke

Bella Fiore says it all: from the space, the shopping experience, to the pieces, to the owner's personality......

An amazingly talented, likable person who has a unique shop. Half of my jewelry has been purchased there. Here is the thing… NO ONE who was in Dorian wants to relive it. EVER. We don’t need to be retraumatized because someone feels the need to use us for their sadistic pleasure. We do not feel the need to smile through your lack of empathy. Holding our personal boundaries is NOT rude. Be considerate of what we have been through. Enjoy the store, it’s beautiful m, warm owner and her amazing taste in product selection. You will not be...
