Floating on Folly

As you may know, being a coastal girl in the Carolinas, I always have to be close to the ocean. So when I heard my cousins were about to be Folly bound, I knew I had to tag along for the trip.

We rented a beach house for the weekend, with just a short walk to the water. The best part was having our own personal pool full of my favorite floats.

While my family hit the beach for a fishing trip, I floated the day away and soaked up some sun. It was the perfect day to play beneath the palms.

When the sun started to fade, we made our way to Chico Feo for tacos. I love this laid back spot to sip and see with locals and listen to live music. We headed downtown to dance the night away, but I couldn’t wait to be back in my dream suite. It was hard to leave this poolside pad, but I am always looking forward to my next beach retreat!

If You Like Piña Coladas

When life gives you pineapples, make Piña Coladas! What better way to start the summer than to sip a perfectly sweet tropical drink beneath the palms.

This fab fruit is so in season, I knew it would make my Macbeth Collection top  pop. A great way to seal the deal is with a stylish tumbler from your cute cabana boy.

No outfit combo would be complete without the perfect necklace from Haute Pink. Each piece is unique from my handcrafted accessory collection.

What do you pair with your pineapple pieces?

H&M Hits Savannah

Last week was the long- awaited launch of the H&M in Savannah. The grand opening was August 4th on Broughton Street, our stylish shopping district. The sidewalk was lined with savvy shoppers awaiting the brand’s arrival, and their swag bags!

We watched from work across the street, and snuck over. The line was bumping with Beyonce music and we just made the cut for these cute bags. The first 250 customers received these goodies, along with the coveted 25% off coupon.

The girls and I stormed the store with four stories of sales. I got stuck in the sunnies section, and theres no question why. I mean look at these summer accessories! I made my way to the tops and soon came across some sequin tees with flamingos and palm trees. Can you say vacay?

This chic store brought a more modern feel to the otherwise historical style downtown. The fab fashion and low prices drew in the hot young crowd, and the trendy tunes made playing dress- up fun again. What do you think about all of Broughton street’s new boutiques?

Beep Beep… Here Comes the Lilly Jeep!

Yesterday was National Wear Your Lilly Day, which also happens to be the first day of summer. What better way to celebrate summer than with pineapples and prints?

One of this season’s hottest prints is Flamenco, featuring Lilly’s signature colors, and is covered in my favorite fruit. It reminds me of a great quote every southern lady should live by: “Be a pineapple… stand tall, wear a crown, and be sweet on the inside!”

This was the perfect day for a cruise in the Lilly jeep, past the palm trees in the Savannah breeze. It was fun to top it off with my favorite matching two- piece Parfait set, perfect for sunshine and summertime!

Bay Breeze and Palm Trees

Being the last week with my boyfriend, we were off for a couples retreat across the bay.

We headed over the bridge for a mini escape from Savannah. It was so nice seeing the city from the other side.

To kick off the night we popped champagne on the balcony of our top corner suite, overlooking the bay.

We hit the hotel restaurant, Aqua Star, and snagged the Par 5 Burger from the bar.

The next day we were off to the pool in paradise. It was certainly a sweet retreat sippin’ champs beneath the palm trees.

As the sun set, we settled into the jacuzzi nestled beneath the umbrellas. It was a great place to cheers to our last weekend together.

But all in all I have to say, the best goodbye was breakfast in bed.
