Seashells…They Are Everywhere
I know. It’s summer so there are supposed to be seashells everywhere to summer-ize your decor. But over the past year, there has been a stronger than previous focus on sealife in home decor and it’s even crossed over onto the fashion plate. I’ve said it before, but every room can use a nod to the sea. Just a little something. www.etsy.com/shop/ShellScapes Local Artist...
Read MoreYou Smell…..So Nice
I must admit one of my biggest fears: smelling bad. With the water shortage that Nashville has just witnessed, that fear became a little stronger. I washed my hair last Tuesday morning in Virginia and held off to wash again until Friday morning here in Nashville….and that was SO HARD. But, considering what I could have been dealing with, I figured the water was needed for others much...
Read MoreGwyneth Paltrow, my new best friend.
OK- So I’m standing in line at The Produce Place several weeks ago. I kept thinking that the girl looking at oranges looked familiar. Then it hit me. It was her. My style goddess. If I had to pick three celebrities who I would love to raid their closets (and have a magic wand that immediately switched everything to my size) they would be Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Aniston, and the...

Read MoreCindy Wall Tells of a Very Necessary Accessory
There’s no color in my closet, and I like it that way. Black, white, beige, gray, some occasional navy. That’s my palette. But I’ve got a drawer full of scarves that’s an entirely different story. Wild hues. Crazy prints. Fancy French silks, hand-woven cottons, and some excellent synthetics not found in nature. There’s no better, more multi-purpose, more...
Read MoreBobbi Brown & Winifred Grace Take on Bandywood This Week
Both Woo and The Perfect Pair have us overly excited this week. You need to hit both places before the predicted ICE storm/rain hits Middle Tennessee on Thursday night. First, why you need to go to Woo: Elizabeth Talking: I don’t know about you but this winter has wreaked havoc on my face and hands. As the temperatures dropped below 10 degrees, my reptilian hands continued to morph into...
Read MoreBoots-Boots-Boots!!
The title of this post is the only Kipling poetry you get today. I know that disappoints some and relieves the others. Consider the rest of this post as visual boot poetry. Does that even make sense? Anyhow, check out these boots. All available through the end of day Saturday for 20% off if you have a Centerstone Card. ($50. You can buy one at Monkee’s or look online for other...

As T.V. series are returning to the air, (An overdue welcome back Mad Men and yippee The Office starts soon!) we are beginning our own series of weekly blogs on what to wear to specific Nashville social events. We get to talk about local charities and local fashion all wrapped together…our bliss. Each post will also feature an “If I walked into this store with only $100, what...
Read MoreThe Perfect Pair Sale
A postcard arrived in my mail box yesterday. On the front was the word S-A-L-E. Each letter was composed of different types of shoes – really just so clever! The rest said: For our preferred customers Saving up to 90% off entire spring and summer inventory Offer ends June 27 If you love the Perfect Pair as much as I do, and let’s admit, it is the best shoe store in Nashville,...
Read MoreThe Power of the Purse – Truly
I just returned from the Power of the Purse luncheon to benefit the Women’s Fund of the Community Foundation. What an AMAZING gathering of women. It’s quite evident looking around the room at Nashville’s most influential women (and some brave men!), that without the STAR POWER OF WOMEN, so many organizations simply could not open their doors. Jane Pauley was the...
