Keeping Cool In Little Five Points

romper and belt: Salvation Army, Key West
shoes: Banana Republic
sunnies: Urban Outfitters
parasol: Virginia-Highland boutique

Parasols make a lot of sense in our southern climate, not to mention their allure. Don't wilt in the heat. Cover your heads. Brian Hadden of A Thrift Life found admirable millinery and haberdashery at the Decatur Arts Festival. Use sunscreen and stay hydrated. Lateley I've been offered bottled water in Billy Reid and 310 Rosemont. Thanks for being so thoughtful.

In Piedmont Park: A Bike Style Summit

In a posting from August titled Snapshot Of A City: Monday, it was my pleasure share with you what three other Atlanta fashion bloggers had found that day. Not long thereafter, Brian Hadden and I would meet by chance at the Decatur Book Festival. No photographs resulted from that event, but today, our nerve broke in Piedmont Park. Putting ourselves through what it is that we ask of others was not only instructive; it was fun. The match was even: two guys, two three-speed bikes, two neckties and two ivy caps. See his views of me on ATL: A Thrift Life.
