The weather is so beautiful in Nashville right now! Yesterday I decided to have lunch at my favorite spot in Shelby Park that overlooks the Cumberland River. It’s so peaceful and picturesque there (Sevier St & 17th St & for you native Nashvillians). I enjoyed a peanut butter sandwich and met the sweetest rescue dog named Bettie. It’s the little things that are memorable.

Tonya Nikole and I work incredibly well together. She is so spontaneous and always understands where I am coming from an artistic standpoint. We actually shot four looks this day without any planning! Needless to say, it was quite magical. AMETHYST SUNSET is a combination of the obvious – the beautiful sunlight in the photos and my recent amethyst cocktail ring creation (read the DIY post here). Since most of these items were vintage, I’ve listed the color palette + similar pieces at the bottom you can wear to achieve the same look!

It’s Makeup Monday again! Seems like time is passing faster this spring, or maybe I’m just not getting enough sleep. Ha. This is my current leatherette studded bag from Forever 21 + what’s inside (minus all of the random paper and receipts I need to trash, of course). YouTube video soon to come!

Just returned from Frill Seekers event at Nordstrom in Green Hills after meeting with the lovely Angela Sabuco! I am feeling so inspired by all of the beautiful spring colors, florals and lace she showed me this evening. My idea of the perfect lingerie item is one that you can take from nighttime to day time with complete ease. That being said – bras + bralettes MUST be functional yet fashionable! Lingerie is so pretty and dainty, why wouldn’t you want to show a bit of side bra when layering a low cut tank? Just a peek never hurt anybody!

“Nordstrom is proud to make a combined minimum contribution of $200,000 to Komen for the Cure® through these events and selected Komen Race for the Cure sponsorships. For every bra purchased from a participating brand at Nordstrom Frill Seekers events, $2 is donated to Susan G. Komen for the Cure®.
