Beautiful Idiot Clothing - handmade clothing and accessories
The Magpie Co - when the Thompson's multiply... what the babes will be wearing

Same Ol' Place, Same Ol' City

[with Atlanta more and more every time I go].

KUT from the Kloth Nora Plaid Blouse and Chrissy Flares

Vidalia Vogue necklace + super cool hat I found in the Atlanta market


Day 2 of 2 style:
Sanctuary olive button up/ Elsa Fine peplum tank/ KUT from the Kloth Catherine Relaxed Boyfriend denim/ Frye booties


Elsa Fine let me tag along to get my bead fix at the Atlanta market.  We had a delicious dinner post-day 1 at One Midtown Kitchen.  Can you say margarita pizza, truffle fries, and fancy venison dishes? YUM.  
Next time, Metro Cafe karaoke, we're coming for ya.... and I'll be in a surgery shoe... can't wait.

Check out the official KUT from the Blog post here.

Garage Door Envy

KUT from the Kloth Harmony Top/ Scrapbook vest from Union Boutique - Asheville, NC/ KUT from the Kloth Chrissy Flare/ Frye booties

Does Jordan have the best garage door for picture taking, or what?  Sometimes you'll even see it show up on elsafine.com.  She even has a brick wall.  Some people just have it all.


Stop what you're doing and go try these jeans on.  In my first KUT post, I told you KUT from the Kloth jeans were REAL comfortable, and that is 100% truth.  But now, I have FOUND MY FIT within KUT.... I thought it couldn't get better, but I was wrong.  This mid-rise was made for me.

Check out my mini moment of style fame here.

Old Blog Haunts

 KUT from the Kloth top (shop similar here) and pants/ Lucky Brand purse/ Minnetonka wedges

 Location: one of the many permit-only parking lots in Boone, NC that never has anyone parked in it


Ironically, this is where my old header photo was also taken:



Much Needed Re[fresh] Air

Back when it was warm, I was attempting to re-take pictures of all my Etsy [Vidalia Vogue] listings so everything looked more cohesive.  This is kind of what the behind-the-scenes mess looks like.

Crochet vest from Urban Outfitters/ Eyelet crop top found at Buffalo Exchange in Charlotte, NC/ Francesca's skirt/ Frye booties

Grab this southwestern-inspired coin purse here.

Shop the vintage scarf lot here.

Studio Jules Calavera necklaces can be found here in various styles.

  This was also a day I got to run over to Cornelius and help my sweet friend Amanda get a grip on what her elopement style was going to be.  Dress shopping.... I'm in.

So even after all the effort of trying to make things looks consistent in lighting and background as far as product photos go... I've lost control again and I'm lucky to catch natural daylight for photos when and where I can.  But honestly, I kind of like the chaos.
