The St. Patrick’s Day Green Edit
Turn Your Wedding Flowers in to Art
One of my dearest friends got married in the most glorious surprise wedding (best surprise ever)! I was asked to take the bouquet home and preserve it for her so I decided to try my hand at putting the flowers in resin so that they would last forever. The project turned out great! This is …
A Pajama Party for Ukraine
A Ukranian company that you can support in the wake of war.
Valentine’s Day
Just a few snaps from our Valentine’s Day date! This year was quite chilly so I decided to go with my favorite relaxed fit suit from The Frankie Shop. I paired it with a simple white cami, my lavender Bottega Veneta mules, and the cutest pair of heart shaped earrings by Brinker & Eliza. What …
Rooftops and Dinner Jackets
Nice weather just calls out to me for a rooftop gathering with friends. I think that there are so many opportunities to get dressed up that get overlooked these days. Maybe it’s a birthday or you are celebrating an accomplishment or maybe it’s just Tuesday and you want to wear a certain piece of clothing. …
2021 Favorite Outfits Recap
As 2021 comes to an end, I thought I would look back on my favorite looks from the year. These are my top picks. Cheers!
Soft Power: In Defense of the Sweat Set
Let’s settle this once and for all: sweatpants are not a moral failing. For decades, we were made to believe that “putting on real clothes” equated to virtue. That to don a stretchy waistband meant surrender. A sign we’d let ourselves go. But I would argue the opposite: that reaching for a soft, coordinated sweat …
My Favorite Frankie Shop Coat Gets an Upgrade
Last winter I bought the most incredible oversized quilted jacket from The Frankie Shop. It has all the elements of a good coat. It’s warm. Its roomy. It’s incredibly stylish (proven by it’s knock-off’s appearance in all the popular fast fashion retailers). And it’s comfy. Have you ever rolled yourself up in your comforter like …
People are People by Christian Siriano Comes to the SCAD Museum of Art
It’s not everyday that a small southern town like Savannah, Ga gets the opportunity to host a museum exhibit of designer couture worn by some of the most well known A-list celebrities, activists, and even a First Lady. But thanks to the Savannah College of Art and Design and famed fashion designer Christian Siriano these …
The Subtle Art of High/Low Dressing
Wouldn’t it be marvelous to be able to wear a perfectly curated designer look every time you left the house? Unless you are an a-list celebrity, successful fashion influencer, or maybe a member of the Kardashian family, this fashion lifestyle is probably far out of reach. But that’s ok because even working class people such …
Meet the Jacquemus Bucket Hat That I Bought in Three Colors
I love France. I’ve always been drawn to it really. There’s so much beauty and romance at every turn. The food is next level and the fashion, iconic. There is a reason that the phrase ‘French girl chic’ is a thing. I can just imagine myself living in Paris, riding my bike down the cafe …
An Afternoon at Fort King George
I love living in coastal Georgia. Yes it’s hot and humid and gnatty (if that’s even a word). But it’s also full of history, beautiful waterways, haunting oak trees dripping with Spanish moss, and a calming coastal breezes. I sometimes forget the splendor of where I live but am fortunate enough to have family in …
The $18 High-Cut Zara Bodysuit That Will Spice Up Your Wardrobe
Sometimes I love a good affordable find. Don’t get me wrong, I live for couture. But sometimes you want to jump on a trend for a season and not spend a ton of money on something that isn’t going to become a wardrobe staple. For me, Zara is one of those retailers that I constantly …
Styling the Valentino Roman Stud Flats
You know how when it’s fashion month and you sit on the couch and watch all the shows on your laptop (cause I’m not cool enough to be invited….yet….. this is me manifesting). You have your bottle of wine and are silently reciting your credit card number in your head just so you have it …
5 Ways to Elevate Your Everyday Wardrobe
If you are like most people, you probably have a closet full of clothes but always think you have nothing to wear. Even the most fashionable people struggle to see the potential in the things they already have and look longingly at the things that they don’t. But there are some things that you can …
Three Days of Food, Fashion, and Fun in Saint Augustine, Florida
If you haven’t been to Saint Augustine, Florida let me be the first to tell you that you are missing out big time. A Spanish settled city (you remember old Ponce De Leon from history class) hailed as the oldest city in the United States, Saint Augustine is the perfect mix of old world charm, …
When Forty Attacks: How I Celebrated The-Big-40
Whew, last week was a super busy one! I had a few days off of work to celebrate/grieve the passing of my 40th birthday. Sam and I planned to go grab a quick dinner downtown before meeting with our friends later in the evening. Then off to Saint Augustine, Fl for a short stay on …
True Botanicals – My Fountain of Youth
I always hear women say that they regret not taking care of their skin when they were younger. Now that I am officially over the hill, I 100% agree with this sentiment. I’m a very naturally fair skinned person who can get surprisingly tan when not being protective of my skin. I took full advantage …
Rose Petal Yogurt
I like to experiment with food and I am currently on a kick with loaded yogurt bowls. I made this rose inspired bowl for breakfast the other day and it was so good I just had to share! Base: Coconut milk yogurt (I used Yoplait Oui but any yogurt will be fine. I just prefer …
Just a Girl and Her Bottega
True Story: It was my day off. I had the typical afternoon planned. Cleaning, doing my laundry, etc. I had already wasted the morning (well, late morning) sitting on the couch watching re-re-runs of Friends and it was probably well past time for me to stop lying around. My husband, who works from home, was …
