Party At Tiffany's

The holidays are winding down for most of us. The halls have been decked and the presents unwrapped; treats consumed and stretchy pants donned. Not so much over here. Three days before Christmas my better half got knocked flat by a full-blown bout of the flu. hankfully I had a flu shot so I didn't catch it, but it meant our plan to wait until the last minute to get our Yule-tide act together fell as flat on it's back as he did. That doesn't mean my entire holiday season was a bust. Last week I promised you some party pics. Have a look at these.

Amanda Valentine/Margaret Ellis Jewelry

If you're a fan of Project Runway you already know that my friend Amanda Valentine came oh-so-close to winning it all with her Fall 2014 collection. So close that the majority of viewers felt her designs should have garnered the grand prize. But Nashville knows a good thing when it sees it. Valentine has really found her point of view as a designer and her voice as one of Music City's creatives. She collaborated with fellow Nashvillian McLaine Richardson, owner of Margaret Ellis Jewelry, to create the Roman Holiday jewelry collection.

Woodland Street Date Night

I'm having a grand time exploring new neighborhoods in Nashville. There are many areas that have been in dire need of some TLC and sense of community. One of these areas is East Nashville. Some of Music City's most creative entrepreneurs have transformed this neighborhood into a vibrant, thriving area filled with shops, boutiques, and restaurants.

It's been a few weeks since I've talked about Rhoda. Those of you that have kept up with her story know that, thanks to a wonderful foster who did a magnificent job, all eight of her puppies have gone to their forever homes. But circumstances required a different foster to see Rhoda through her treatments so my better half and I stepped up to take over.

eShakti and Owen Bradley Park

If you read a lot of fashion blogs you've probably heard of eShakti, the clothing company the carries sizes 0-36W and will customize their garments to your measurements. I was thrilled when they contacted me to choose a dress and write a review because I've never owned a made-to-measure garment and was curious to see if it would meet my expectations. It didn't; it far exceeded them. Take a look.
