With awards season underway, we have plenty of red carpet eye candy to inspire style, taking notes straight from the stars. The Golden Globes gave us plenty to drool over, with the requisite sparkling gowns and enviable beauty. I couldn’t help but notice the look-at-me red dresses with stars from Allison Williams to Taylor Schilling...
With a brand new EP, role on TNT’s unscripted series Private Lives of Nashville Wives and a penchant for cool-girl style, this Georgia peach is one to watch. Y’all, the girl is on fire. Q. We first met you back in October at South Walton Fashion Week and were immediately drawn to your style. A lot...
I’ve been accused more than once of being a daydreamer. I think it’s perfectly fine. Sure, it takes hard work, knowledge and a consistent effort to make things happen, but there’s no harm in imagining the possibilities. That’s half the fun. To encourage a little healthy daydreaming, here are a few inspiring words to fuel...
Crayon-like stems are definitely a “thing” right now. What do you think? Would you wear colorful pants? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Have you noticed all the highlighter-hued clothes popping up lately? It’s not an over-the-top 80s revival with head to toe neon and spandex, but this time around, the look is more sophisticated and grown up. The most important part: neon is balanced by tame neutrals. Sunny yellow paired with deep camel, soft blush, clean nude,...
At 34 weeks prego, it’s the little things that I find the most triumph in lately. Getting up from a seated position in under a minute – success! Rolling over from one side to another in bed in the middle of the night – score! Remembering that I need to cook dinner and actually taking...
Starting the day with a fresh latte from our new Tassimo thanks to the Akinses! No need for a Starbucks run with this baby. If you’re a coffee drinker without one of these, trust me, you’re missing out!
I can’t believe our wedding day is already less than two weeks away! It really seems like we were just engaged yesterday, but in reality that was months and months ago. Well, five to be exact. Almost everything is in order for the big day with just a few odd projects and little things to...
It’s officially the start of summer and I love summer time at the beach. Sure it’s hot and humid, with little chance of a good hair day, but it’s also such a relaxing time of year. The pace is slower, the mood is lighter and the skies could open up and let pouring rain escape...
I just started catching up on my favorite junk TV addiction and I can’t help but notice how fabulous everyone’s hair looks on The City. Straight, wavy, up, down. It all looks good. I feel like I’ve gotten into a hair rut lately and these styles are great inspiration to change it up a little....
This whole country boy romance thing I’ve got going is definitely a transition. I’ve been wearing more jeans, fewer dresses and finding myself in the outdoors a lot more without high heels on my feet. I’ve even found myself at the Lower Alabama Lounge in Destin surrounded by a crowd full of country folks packed...
Check this out! If you need to dress up an outfit in a pinch, the latest fix is just adding a little jewelry to your jeans. It has nothing to do with securing your wallet on a chain (not exactly top of the style list), but just adds a little interest to an otherwise plain...
Talk about being green with envy! My good friend Jessica Mansfield is in New York covering Fashion Week as we speak! She’s just launched a fashion website, Emerald Chic, covering all things fashionable here on the Emerald Coast. Check out the website here and Facebook page here for up-to-the minute updates and photos from all...
It’s freezing! Literally. The water fountain at work was even frozen this morning. It’s way too cold for my taste and I just want to wrap up in something nice and warm – preferably something other than a Snuggie. I think this cotton and cashmere sweater throw would be perfect. Nice and toasty yet still...
It seems like almost everyone is ready for spring to arrive and along with that come the usual crop of bright colors, prints and floral patterns galore. The difference this time is mixing and matching two or three prints for an eclectic look that’s not too sailor-ish and nothing like your grandmother’s Sunday dress. It’s...
