what we’ve been up to…

If you’re wondering why we haven’t been blogging every day, that would be because of the amazing weddings we’ve had the past few weekends!

Two weekends ago, we had Anna and Eric’s wedding at The Legare Waring House. Both being Broadway lovers, we made sure to have the music alive all over! The beautiful day is featured on Elizabeth Anne Designs today, so be sure to check it out for all of the details and pictures!

This past weekend we had Lindsey and Brandon’s wedding at William Aiken House. Imagine this : Coco Chanel hosting a fabulous, fancy party in her cabana, on the shore – in the South of France in the 1920s. Are you visioning it? It was fab. The picture above is just a sneak peak – note the amazing patterned draping.

What would Coco Do?

If you’re like me then you often ask yourself WWCD or ”What would Coco Do?” In seventh grade I wrote my first biography report on Coco… I know, I know what kind of 13 year old is writing biographies on fashion icons? ME!

Biographies on Coco have been out of print for years, but with a renewed interest in her incredible story, movies and books are on the rise. I am especially in love with Coco Chanel: Three Weeks/1962 by Douglas Kirkland. It is the new permanent book on my coffee table!
