This week I had the phenomenal opportunity to work with Chris Zimmerman, a local photographer here in Charlotte. He has an amazing way of making studio work artsy, earthy and totally comfortable. He played good music and made me feel right at home, even when I felt awkward. All of his work is absolutely amazing and edited to perfection! I was blown away when I saw them. Obsessed!

Okay, you guys...

Let's just take a moment to discuss the elephant in the room.... that's printed on my shirt from Urban Outfitters. Ha! Aren't I hilarious? Usually I save this shirt for warmer weather, but based on my recent looks I decided to throw a little color and pattern into the mix. I love purple and gold. Go Pirates!

Today my mom and I went out to Tupelo Honey for lunch. After I went there a week or two ago with Sean I raved about how delicious it was and knew my mom would love it. I ordered a gluten free veggie melt with goat cheese grits. Can you say heaven on a plate? Yum! Then we met up with my older sister to take my nephew to see the movie Frozen. It was so cute! I loved the singing. I'm a huge musical fan, so I really enjoyed it! Maybe I'll buy the soundtrack? Who else loves Idina Menzel?

We had such a fun, simple day. Nothin' better than a few wholesome activities to make you thankful! Here's what I wore for a day of lunch, movies and family time. Happy Martin Luther King Day!

When I was little my family used to go pick out a real Christmas tree together every year. We would all pile into the car, make our way to the tree lot, and search until we found the right one. My parents always had the final say, but it was the tradition and festivity that we loved most! The smell of the fresh pine, the cool air that made your cheeks rosy and flushed, and the adventure of finding the star of the show was just so exciting to us.

As all the kids grew older and the mystery of the holiday faded just a little bit,  my parents decided to get a fake tree for our home. Looking at it from an adult perspective, I can definitely see how it is easier and much more practical. I really don't mind our fake tree! It is just as beautiful, just as magical, and just as fun as a regular tree... but I know that once I get my own house I will fall back to the real ones! I want to start the same tradition with my children that I enjoyed when I was young. I still get excited when I see a parking lot filling up with twinkle lights and trees of all different shapes and sizes, like I saw today! The holidays are upon us, and I'm soaking up every little minute of it!

Do ya'll like smoothies? I have always loved them. They are just so refreshing and satisfying to me! I love fruit and I love shakes and I love being healthy. My new obsession is the Double Green smoothie from Whole Foods. Oh my word, let me just tell you, it is delicious. It's made up of kale, spinach, bananas, mixed berries and almond milk. It may sound weird, but it's good for you and super tasty. I may try and recreate it, myself!

The other day before work I stopped by Whole Foods, which is conveniently located right next to a fellow bloggers apartment, where I picked up a smoothie and did some modeling for my blog. Pattern mixing is such a fun trend right now, and although I wouldn't consider myself a "Kate Spadey" girl, I loved what I did with this look! So simple, comfortable and chic! What do you think? Are stripes and polka dots new BFF's?

You tell me!
