This past Saturday was a busy but fun day for me. I had 2 blogger shoots lined up that day but they were 8 hours apart, so after my first shoot, I took a little time for some retail therapy and then a solo lunch at El Mero Taco.
I'm not one for outdoor activities (I stopped looking forward to Summer once I became an adult and no longer enjoyed Summer breaks, lol), but a picnic in the park? Sign me up.
I'm not a coffee connoisseur at ALL, but I DO know what looks pretty cute in a pic, lol, so I wanted to share a quick list of coffee shops in Memphis that will also give you dope instagrammable backdrops as well.
Just in case you're still needing some holiday gifts and want to support some Memphis Makers + Creatives, here's a round up of some of my favorite locally owned small businesses that you can (happily) shop with this season.
As a born and raised Memphian, there is nothing that I love more than exploring my city. Whenever I get a break in my work schedule, these are some of my favorite things to do around town.
Ballet Memphis debuted their Nutcracker show over the weekend, and leading up to its opening night, they collaborated with one of my faves, 17 Berkshire, for a special shoot (and dessert) and guess who got to shoot it?!?
I know it may be a little hard to believe, but I attended my first Friendsgiving this past weekend! I'm always with family during this time of year, but this was my first time being invited to celebrate, and it was just what I needed to kick off the holiday season.
Whenever fellow Memphis blogger Cara Greenstein would post glimpses into her home on IG, I always wished that I could expand the photo a little further to see the full room. Her beautifully curated Instagram serves as the appetizer for her blog Caramelized, a food + lifestyle blog created with a purpose to share, celebrate and elevate everyday experiences.
