Foodie Flashback [Tavern]
Welcome to my newest blog post category: Foodie Flashback–my twist on the “flashback Friday” posts seen on social media. I have all these pictures of food I’ve eaten at Nashville restaurants over the months. I thought this would be a great way to showcase some of the amazing meals (and restaurants) I’ve tried. Today’s “Foodie Flashback” features Tavern in… Continue Reading

Flavorsome Food Trucks in Franklin
The Third Annual Street Food Awards took place at Nashville Farmers’ Market this past Saturday. After stuffing my face with delicious food at Whiskey Kitchen I opted not to join my friends Jasmine and Ashleigh at this event. When I saw them this week at work they couldn’t stop talking about the delicious food they tried.… Continue Reading

#ootd [live on the green]
Thursday evening Jesse and I attended Live on the Green (LOTG), a free summer concert series hosted by Nashville’s independently owned rock music station, Lightning 100 (WRLT). Nashville musicians and well-known rock and alternative bands perform in front of the historical Metropolitan Courthouse at Public Square Park. The two acre park sits on top of a subterranean parking lot and… Continue Reading

My Shopping Bag [8.22.14]
Last Friday (8/22) my friend Jasmine and I went The Garden Brunch Cafe (for the second time) with our friend, Ashleigh, to celebrate her birthday. (More information about my first visit to The Garden can be found in “My Shopping Bag [7.11.14].”) While I really wanted to have the pecan pancakes again, I decided to be a little adventurous.… Continue Reading

#ootd [prints-n-patterns]
Several weeks ago a friend of mine hosted a farewell party for a coworker of ours who has since moved to Florida. “What a great opportunity to come up with a fun outfit to share on my blog,” I thought. I don’t often feel inspired to mix prints and patterns mainly because I’ve never been confident enough. I’ve… Continue Reading

How to [Recycle Your Closet]
In my last blog post, #ootd [canadian tuxedo], I touched on the importance of being a mindful consumer, especially in how we “consume” clothing. I work on the merchandise-processing team at H&M, so I get to see all the products before they hit the floor. It’s especially difficult to resist the urge to buy when I process new… Continue Reading

#ootd [canadian tuxedo]
If sticky humidity before 9 a.m. and crickets chirping loudly at at all hours of the day are any indication, the dog days of summer are officially here in Nashville. It’s not my favorite time of year. Although, does anyone really enjoy having a layer of condensation attached to their forehead as soon as they step outside?… Continue Reading

Fashion Throwback [Engagement Photo Shoot]
Welcome to my newest blog post category–fashion throwback! (Done on Thursdays, of course.) This is also a couple’s fashion post. Today’s inspiration comes from mine and Jesse’s engagement photo shoot last May. My man has been in Seattle all summer interning at Alliance for a Just Society. (Here’s a piece he wrote for the organization’s… Continue Reading

#ootd [7.19.14]
On Saturday, my good friend Chrysa and I attended the Pirate and Rum Festival at Nashville Shores. (Side note–I am so lucky to have Chrysa living in the same city as me. She’s been one of my closest friends since high school. I’m so grateful to be making memories with her as an adult.) The event… Continue Reading

My Shopping Bag [7.11.14]
The day after my friend Jasmine’s birthday we had a shopping day. Well, we started our day with an amazing breakfast at The Garden Brunch Cafe near downtown Nashville. She ordered the bananas foster pancakes and I order the pecan pancakes. Both were delectable and perfectly fluffy. If you live in Nashville or plan to visit the… Continue Reading
