Snowflakes on the Sound

With a new year comes new experiences… and I have to say, that a snow day on the beach has to be the best one yet! As the sun went down, so did the temperature. I struggled to sleep because I was so excited hearing the snowflakes slide down my window.

When I woke, the Outer Banks transformed from a tourist destination to a winter wonderland vacation. As I made my way through the workday, the sky began to fall. Being surrounded by windows at the shop, I had a 360 degree view of the baby blizzard. I couldn’t wait to sneak out for a snow angel.

The sun set on a white horizon, and rose on the frozen sound. This was certainly a sight to see for this southern gal. What a treat to have snow on the beach!

Moving From Peaches to Beaches

So as you all have been following along, you have seen my series of Savannah adventures. I have spent the last 6 years in this sweet city, from studying Fashion Marketing at SCAD to selling Lilly Pulitzer at Palm Avenue. I have had some of my best years here, but its time to start the next chapter and I am so happy to share it with you all. So long Savannah!

Now I am making my way up the coast to the beaches of the Outer Banks. More specifically, Duck, North Carolina. I couldn’t think of a better place to start fresh. I can’t believe I get to live where people vacation. Talk about resort 365!

So you might ask, why OBX? Well, I recently received a job offer to be the Assistant Manager at Life’s A Beach, a Lilly Pulitzer Signature Store at the Waterfront Shops. I am so excited to get started and run the store this fall. I also just found a new place right on the beach, just a bike ride from work. The best part is falling asleep to the waves outside my window. Now I think I could get used to this…

There is so much more to explore, and I can’t wait to get started. I would also love for y’all to let me know of any local hot spots to hit while I’m here.

I gotta say, it feels nice to be a Carolina girl again, but I will always be a Georgia peach at heart!
