i have lived many places in my twenty-three years and i'm proud to say nashville will always be considered home. i've been through new york/boston/miami, but there's something very comforting about being in nashville.  i'm sure my adventures will take me away from here, but at least i'll always have an absolutely beautiful place to call home!

i was in downtown nashville visiting one of my favorite coffee shops, crema coffee, and I had to take some photos with this beautiful view of the nashville skyline.  i was also very excited to wear my faux fur vest without dying of heat exhaustion!

hope you all have a very happy halloween weekend!

i haven't experienced a summer to fall transition in almost four years! living in miami really limited my seasonal diversity and i'm so happy to be enjoying the change of weather in nashville! i headed out to the "edgehill village artisan fair" this past weekend where i met some amazing local designers and of course i had to share some of their pieces with you!

a platform story.

shirt: delias, earrings: vintage, bag: monsac, ring: pangea, pants: f21, shoes: anne klein

the shoes i'm wearing above were my VERY FIRST platform shoe! since i wear heels almost everyday it's very important that all of my shoes are easy to walk in and i find platforms provide a lot of comfort for me!

on another note i recently had my hair cut at the hippest new salon in nashville:

name: ardon house salon 
super fabulous stylist/co-owner: tamara mccray
contact: ardonhouse@gmail.com

she turned my hair from a big curly fluff-ball into a hair masterpiece!  she straightened it for me that night - i'll try and recreate the look to show you guys soon :)  here are some pics from my hair cut:

oh, and did i mention she did it all in heels? clearly all my nashville readers need to run over there immediately!

carrie me!

blazer: vintage, jeans: blank, necklace: my name necklace, tank: f21, shoes and cocktail ring: random stores in argentina, other rings: house of harlow, sunglasses: vintage, nail polish: essie's bermuda shorts

the fabulous folks at my name necklace sent me this necklace and I couldn't help but feel like carrie bradshaw for the day! i think we all died a little when she lost her carrie necklace during the last season in paris, but thank god she found it in the end! 

i paired my carrie-esque necklace with this amazing pink vintage blazer that i'm totally in love with right now. i thought it was important to rock some pink this month because it's breast cancer awareness month!  a friend of mine who works with the susan g. komen foundation told me about a great way to raise funds for the foundation:

"This October, Purina Cat Chow and Kate Walsh have teamed up with Susan G. Komen in a campaign called Cat Nap for the Cause that invites supporters nationwide to take a 20-min nap to support breast cancer. For each “cat napper” that signs up for a cat nap on their Facebook page, Purina Cat Chow will donate $2 up to $150,000 – on top of their 2010 donation of $200,000!"

so basically all you have to do is hop on over to their facebook page and click the "like" button.  it's such an easy way to contribute and what's more chic than donating to an important cause??

ps - big shout out to THE HOT DISTRICT who featured me as their "fresh face" - thanks you so much!

oktoberfest!

jumper: new york & co, earrings: f21, ring: house of harlow, shoes: lucky brand

i had so much fun last weekend at oktoberfest! i've really been enjoying all the lovely outdoor festivals in nashville recently and this one was no different - it was full of food, drinks, clothing, and accessories!  it was brutally hot so i decided to wear my jean jumper (yes, another jumper!) and some comfy heels.  my motto for warmer weather: less is more.

here are some of my favorite things from the day:

i loved this tie-dye/tribal inspired caftan:

so many adorable couples were dressed in their german gear:


i found some very cool handmade necklaces:

....and i had a few delicious chocolates from the cocoa tree!

to all my nashvillians - you must check out the cocoa tree. they have the most decilious chocolates - my favorite one was hazel's salted caramel!

real teal.

romper: new york&co, scarf & ring: in things, earrings: local designer, shoes: steve madden

looks like we’ve fall-en back into summer here in Nashville - this weekend the temperatures jumped back up into the 90s!  i have to admit, i was pretty excited because i had the chance to wear my favorite teal jumper and meet up with the lovely suruchi from in things and shoot some of their amazing accessories! the "lulu" scarf and square ring were two of my favorite pieces – the colors of the scarf and transparency of the ring pretty much go with everything!

on another note – the amazing shomara from my style, my roots did a feature on me and sing from sing'ature style gave me the “versatile blogger” award! thank you so much ladies!!

hope you all had a great weekend!
