I went to Nashville with the thought of buying myself a Christmas present, most likely a pair of cowboy boots. I mean that's what you get when you go to Nashville, right? What I came home with was two vintage inspired dresses, a super cool poster, a couple of Christmas ornaments and a straw cowboy … Continue reading Shopping Nashville

Since that isn't possible, read the next few sentences and then close your eyes for a moment and imagine the picture I'm trying to paint for you... A gorgeously sunny afternoon in early autumn.
