would definitely say that
the event perks outweigh
the free stuff perks. I get to
attend and be part of some
amazing events locally.
For example, next week I
get to go on a Charleston
Culinary Tour- I mean
come on, twist my arm!
a few days off to craft an excellent post. In the same
breath, if you go too long without posting you’re likely
to lose readers.
Where do you find topics for your blog?
I 100% pull my topics from my every day personal style
journey. If I purchase something new, I definitely want
to blog about it. If I’m obsessing over a local jewelry line,
I want to share that with my readers. Most recently, I did
a Real vs. Steal post on black booties. I did that because
I’m having a hard time deciding on a pair to buy, so I
figured my readers might be having the same problem.
So, Southern Meets Chic is really a reflection of what’s
going on creatively in my head and in my closet!
Who is your favorite
designer?
This is a really tough
question to narrow down,
as I like so many different
designers for different
reasons and occasions.
So here you go: Jason Wu
and Clare Waight Keller of
Chloé for the femininity
in their designs; Riccardo
Tisci of Givenchy for
his bold and modern
approach to design and
the fashion world; Hedi
Slimane for Saint Laurent,
because they’re my favorite
in shoes and accessories;
Karl Lagerfled, because well, Chanel; and lastly, Diane
Von Furstenberg because she is such an inspiration to
working women in the fashion industry.
What is your favorite fashion trend this season?
I’ve got a serious obsession with outerwear this winter.
I have probably purchased more coats and vests this
year than all my years combined. Specifically, I love
the oversized ‘borrowed from the boys’ looks. There’s
just something so chic about an oversized coat worn
with a classically feminine outfit.

items or brands that I’m not truly passionate about. I
