Storybook livin'

I'm not usually one to post inspirational quotes or cheesy one line-ers {BUT} I'm starting to enjoy coming across these little gems.

This quote gives a sense of empowerment and a little push to remember that it's your life and you are in control of how it turns out.

Charleston, S.C

Charleston, South Carolina is the one of the most charming places to be in the south. The last time we visited I was able to capture some beautiful parts of the town. Its southern flair and historic charm is so captivating, no wonder everyone loves it! 

Seeing new places, meeting new people, trying new things:

One bracelet at a time

..................

The wholesale business means working LOTS of trade shows, meaning I get to travel to New York, Vegas, and Atlanta quite often.  I consider myself very lucky to be able to have the chance to see new places and try new things.  These shows are the perfect opportunity to meet some awesome new people and to learn the "ins and outs" of wholesale AND retail business practices -- oh and to sell Andrew Hamilton Crawford jewelry, of course!

Here are some shots of our last show at ENK in NYC!

Jennifer and Chad ♡ Engagement 

Jennifer and Chad allowed me to capture their sweet sweet love for each other as my FIRST EVER photography session! While learning how to photograph jewelry for Andrew Hamilton Crawford I have discovered a passionate love and growing interest for photography.  I was eager to explore the photographic world outside of accessories, so when this opportunity came along it was like music to my ears. Too corny? Needless to say, I was probably WAY too excited. 

These photos were shot on Jennifer's land which is where she will be getting married--so beautiful. The barn, old vintage pick-up, lush greenery, and peach orchards made my job way too easy- not to mention their undeniable love for each other! 

Let me know what you think of the logo! I am going to be playing around with it a bit. :)

➵ Edgy Hemlines ➵

I am in LOVE with the edgy hemline look right now! Some refer to it as the "mullet dress" or the "hi-low dress", however you want to call it, this asymmetrical hemline is going to stick around for spring and summer.  I first discovered the look at a trade show in New York several months ago and as soon as I saw the short in the front, long in the back look I instantly fell in love. ♡

Bandannas, Bangles, and  Blue Jean Shirts

are just a few of the things that I am obsessed with right now, the newest obsession being bandannas.   Even though it may seem old school, I truly believe they are making a comeback! That flirty retro look exuberates style and can be the perfect accessory to any summer outfit. 

To get this pinup look fold the bandanna into a triangle and keep folding until you get your desired width. Place the center at the nape of your neck then tie the ends at the top. I like to put in bobby pins to secure it better. Wa-lah!

..........................................................................................

Denim Shirts have been a fave since (I will admit) last summer. I can't get enough; the look is so classic and there are endless opportunities! When you feel like looking casual, yet chic just slap on that infamous button-up and pair it with pretty much anything, any season!
