goodmorning everyone! it has been one chilly week so far...don't let these pictures fool you, i was freezing when i took them! this fall and wintery weather has come upon us georgians with full force, and i'm shocked i'm even saying this but it's a refreshing contrast from our muggy, and hot summers. 
today i'm mixing up my wardrobe to concentrate on a laid back chic look. i love how johnny depp's strange fashion choices have made a quirky fashion trend for this past summer and fall. if you want to add a bit of edge or flair to a laid down look, a casual and cozy flannel will do the trick... as well as help keep you warm, along with a cup of coffee :)
i hope you all have had great weeks! we're busy little bees at work getting ready for the holiday season! 
xo,

hey everyone! how was the weekend?? i hope you found it relaxing, full of good food, and quality time with family and friends... certainly what I would have been doing if I had not been working! ah the woes of working in retail! but someone has to be there while you ladies shop till you drop :)

today i'm doing my take on pearls with my treasured wooden gems from a boutique i found on my first trip to italy. in italy i was so entranced by the easy, yet poised style that all of these women embraced... and they call it "la sprezzatura," or studied nonchalance. the perfect definition that i aim for my style to be, it's studied but its carefree and easy. a button down, with a splash of character, like my wooden necklace, or a be-jeweled style that you can find at any J. Crew is an easy go to that i always turn to for...la sprezzatura! 

xo,
       A

happy thursday everyone!
how was the day? it was beautiful weather here in Atlanta, 
and I had the pleasure of having the day off to enjoy it :))

so a fun fact about me is that i am absolutely obsessed with audrey hepburn. i know, i know, a lot of people say that....but i am beyond obsessed with her. i have about 15 books about her, a picture of her in every room of my house, i can quote most of the movies she was in, AND i have managed to memorize all of the songs in My Fair Lady. i buy clothes because they remind me of her, and i plan to one day have breakfast at tiffany's. i aspire to have her grace, her style, and have a love for little things, which it seemed that she truly did. i may have her on a pedestal of what i imagine the perfect woman to be...but hey, she seemed pretty damn perfect.
