STYLE SPOTLIGHT:

meet Elizabeth
& her new pastel hair:
bamboo_princess

Elizabeth lives in a 1960’s carriage house apartment tucked away in the Virginia Highlands. When she’s not hitting the road (or sky) visiting accounts for TOMS..she’s decorating, cooking or catching up with friends. Her personal style is much like her abode: eclectic and improvised with nods to eras past. When I think of a someone who takes unique pieces and turns them into fashionable outfits and layers like a pro, I think of Liz!
see for yourself, below are photos we shot around the shopping and bar district in the VA Highlands as well as a few questions to get to know this fashionable Atlanta Lady:

What’s your secret to great finds?
Keep an open mind! You never know what you’ll find in that thrift store you always pass or at a big-box retailer’s sale. I never count anywhere out!

Who’s closet would you most like to borrow from? 
To be honest…. any of the Olsens’.

What is your fashion faux-pas? 
I tend to over-accessorize. I just get excited about several pieces at one time! I’m always reminding myself less is more.

The big, beautiful trees and lush greenery. And I can walk to some pretty fantastic spots!

faux fur-CHECK.  tough boots-CHECK.
yep, it’s safe to say this season is sexy!
don’t know why but it seems like every single one of my posts lately has been on Wednesday-for what reason-i have no clue. perhaps i just like you say:

meet ZoeDarlin:
behind the lens is where you can find Zoe at most parties, although if you checked the dance floor first she could also be spotted in or around boogie’n down! being a grad of the Art Institute of Atlanta keeps the youngest Darlin on top of her game when it comes to capturing all the right party moments!
