How do you say beautiful life in French?

I’m trying to get beautiful life in French embroidered on a bag but I want to make sure the way I think you say it is correct, when I looked it up there were two ways. One was “Belle Vie” and then another way was “Belle La Vie” which way is right??

We say:

Literally: '' La belle vie ''.

Then in accordance with the context:
'' La belle vie '' = The good life. Exemple: Regarde la belle vie que j'ai ! / Look the good life I have!  Or:'' Une belle vie ''. Ex: J'ai une belle vie / I have a good life.

"Belle vie" means "beautiful life," but note that foreign languages may use an article -- in this case "la" for "the" -- where English would not: "la belle vie".  The context will matter.

la belle vie.

It does mean: the beautiful life, but French rarely uses nouns without a determiner, unlike English.  It's very French to include "la".   But for a tattoo, you can leave off "la" if you want, just know that French is a different language - including it or not is not the same as doing it with "the" in English. 

Although most adjectives come after nouns in French, belle is one of those that normally comes before. 

Saying: la vie belle -- particularly emphasizes "belle" -- the BEAUTIFUL life and is less common. 

note also:  beautiful lives = les belles vies  (belles vies -- is pronounced exactly the same as - belle vie.  The only difference in pronunciation is from LA to LES, which is one reason why THE, a/an, or another determiner is normally included in French, so you can hear the difference between singular & plural). Of course, the difference in writing is clear, without la/les.

Neither. I would say, "La vie belle".

La vie est belle

la belle vie is grammatically correct, but for a tattoo, you could just put belle vie. If you wanted to say "life is beautiful" it would be "la vie est belle".
