ran into stylish Ali on her way to work, her outfits always features an amazing vintage garment and handmade jewelry she makes from recycled vintage pieces and leather under the name Birdalupe. she even has a booth at my favorite Antique store-Highland Row Antiques (such a hot spot-score things like Elizabeth’s sweet vintage hat!)

FB_PROMO
(photo set by me, photo provided by Free People)

crazy excited that Free People will be opening it’s doors just miles away at the Lenox mall in Buckhead THIS Friday. tonight they are hosting a pre-opening shopping event/preview and you can bet money I’ll be the first one at the doors (even switched around my work schedule to have the day off and to beat traffic!)

i’ve already heard the store is amazing and neighbors with Anthropologie, can’t wait to see all the Free People decorating magic!

now, if I could only figure out what I’m wearing…

hope to see all you ladies [and bloggers!] out tonight – don’t miss this event!

ShearLOVE

gotta make this quick but wanted to share a few stunning photos of Alexa Chung that have been sitting on my desktop for about 2 weeks now//
USED FOR BLOG PURPOSES
wow-RIGHT?!
that color blue looks really great on her, and even though this appears to be a more “laid back” look it’s still fantastic.
the lace, the bag, cat eyes and her always perfect hair are all on point-it’s no mystery why so many bloggers adore her style!
USED FOR BLOG PURPOSES
i too am guilty of browsing page after page of The Fashion Spot forums in awe of this girls wardrobe, never disappoints.
that being said-thought it was appropriate to post these as Alexa was my inspiration for my new hair do [though we added the asymmetrical twist] and tonight i am shooting the grand opening for the salon that fulfilled my aspirations of this simple cut.
shearLOVE
the shop owner and stylist-Mimi-is achieving her dream of owning her own salon and in the heart of the hip Poncy-Highlands area, things couldn’t be going better. really pumped to be shooting the party-all you Atlanta ladies [and gents] come out and mingle!
