When my friend told me how she was a pumpkin last year- by wearing an orange dress and a green hair bow- I became very excited to create this look for a low key Halloween costume. Then I went to Goodwill to pull my sections for tonight’s Style With a Purpose event, and found not … More Low Key Halloween #2: Pumpkin Vibes

Thrifted Clothes and Million Dollar Homes with Meg Epstein of California South

March 23, 2017

I knew I liked Meg from the second I heard her voice. I literally hadn’t even see her face- I was taking a class and she was outside the door talking and I thought, “I like that voice, I could listen to that voice all day long…” She really does have the most pleasant voice- … More Thrifted Clothes and Million Dollar Homes with Meg Epstein of California South

Bleach Dye DIY Stone and Sunsets Dress

February 6, 2017

I have an obsession with sunsets. It hasn’t always been this way. It seems to me as if one day I realized that sunsets exist- and I have been in total awe and wonderment ever since. I have developed this sixth sense about them- knowing that sometimes they will be mild and blur with some … More Bleach Dye DIY Stone and Sunsets Dress

Style Files: Modern Day Calamity Jane

Sometimes you just layer until it feels right. The thing I love the most about this outfit is it’s evolution.

Today I trespassed. If you know me- it’s a common trait.

I don’t think I ever told this story but it’s a vital one… A little over a year ago, I was shopping at my neighborhood Goodwill (obvi).

I Voted…

November 8, 2016

I always vote. I vote no matter what and no matter who, because it is a right that people have died for, bled for, prayed for, suffered for… and no matter my disillusionment with the current political system- my though has always been, “how dare I have the arrogance to waste this right that has … More I Voted…

Dolly Parton, Denim and a Western Wear Love Affair

August 23, 2016

Being the lover of vintage that I am- I combed through images of Dolly’s retro style then luckily happened upon a vintage western wear section at City Thrift in Clarksville. This, combined with Old Country Vibes and the amazing Dolly mural by Scott Guion at the House of Blues Studios in Berry Hill, TN – were the inspiration to my overall Concert style. … More Dolly Parton, Denim and a Western Wear Love Affair

This meant I got to take a little road trip to Birmingham where I discovered a weeks worth of Art Magic in about 30 minutes. Those of you who follow me on … More Birmingham Love Affair
