I spent last Saturday morning at Porter Flea for Summer 2014, which was held at Track 1 in the Chestnut Hill neighborhood. Porter Flea is an artisan market showcasing the best of Nashville's modern handmade apparel and accessories, home goods, furniture, jewelry, prints, posters, paper goods, as well as packaged consumable goods from several local makers, millers, and bakers.

Roll Models: It Starts With You

I write about the world I live in and the clothes I wear when I make my way through that world as a 50+, curvy, disabled woman. I'm very aware that these things alone make me very different, and it would be easy for me to descend into bitterness and resentment But there is always a bigger picture, an aspect of what I'm doing, that I try to impart in my posts, even if only through implication. You have to make the best of what you have in life.

Black And White And Art All Over

It's the end of May and I find myself once again at the Nashville Flea Market. This time it was my better half that was on the hunt for a few things. He didn't fare so well, but I found a few things too good to resist.

Elizabeth Cooke's Hand Made Jewelry

Who doesn't love a day at the flea market? If you've been reading Spashionista.com for any length of time you know that casual doesn't mean dumpy, and while it's true that I looked very dressed-up compared to the majority of folks around me I was incredibly underdressed for my favorite booth.
