Southern Protocol

I get positively giddy when I have a free Saturday morning.. obviously for a variety of reasons, but the biggest one is being able to attend the Charleston Farmer’s Market in Marion Square! Nothing makes me love the city more or get in a better mood than strolling through all the vendors, snacking on local treats, and getting a good dose of people watching.

This past Saturday was one of those lucky, lucky days, and I noticed even more unique, amazing art and little trinkets than I have in recent months – which was super convenient as I needed to finish up some Christmas shopping One of my favorite finds was AddLibb Designs! Libby, the incredibly talented and down-to-earth designer creates the coolest, vintage looking clutches; clutches that are actually big enough to fit more than your lip gloss. She finds her fabric from all over, and makes each design that much more special by adding vintage brooches! I bought a chain link strap for mine, too, to ensure I don’t lose it on festive nights out.

If you’re like me, and find yourself not getting a break on the weekends to check her out, don’t fret! AddLibb Designs and (equally fabulous) Rua Framing are hosting a holiday trunk show and cocktail party this Thursday, December 9, at their 47 Spring Street locale, Audella Studios! Besides celebrating the holidays, the ladies of Audella Studios are also welcoming their newest addition, Nicholas Lane Jewelry.

Stop in between 5 and 8 to browse the marvelous clutches and jewelry. You’ll for sure pick up a few Christmas presents for your favorite fashionistas (and obviously yourself!).
