Nashville: The Trunk Boutique

Recently, I had the pleasure of attending the grand relaunch of Nashville's first fashion truck- "The Trunk". Owner Abby Franklin fell upon the genius idea of using a food truck to sell accessories and menswear after failing to find a suitable brick and mortar location for her dream boutique. Abby's unique approach has created a one-of-a-kind shopping experience and a must-visit for any style seeking visitor to Music City. Even CNN recently got in on the action and published an in-depth article on The Trunk.

With the relaunch, The Trunk now stocks an amazing curated collection of women's clothing and accessories along with menswear. Trust me when I say it's amazing. Abby has been a long time stylist to the stars, so she knows a thing or two about fashion.  Her repertoire include dressing Michael Jackson, Prince, Creed, Bon Jovi and Madonna to name a few. In fact she was only in town long enough to see the relaunch her fashion truck before rejoining her husband on tour with Bon Jovi. Talk about being accomplished. 

As for the relaunch, not a detail was spared. From dainty nibbles and bubblies to free blow outs by Lucy's Pop Salon, a little blogger styling session and some photobooth fun. We were even sent home with an amazing swag bag by Pretty Pretty Pop Pop. 

Thanks Abby and Chris for the wonderful event. If you ever find yourself in Nashville, do your wardrobe a favour and stop by The Trunk.

On my mind... Mother's Day Afternoon Tea

Mother's Day is fast approaching. I can't think of a better way to spend it than sleeping in till noon then being whisked off to afternoon tea in a fancy hotel. It's always such a treat to go out for afternoon tea, I do believe one should dress for the occasion. This peplum top paired with the red maxi is just dressy enough for daytime wear. How adorable is this Alexander McQueen skull clutch? Dear husband if you are reading this, I would one in every colour please.

I just love how versatile this Catherine Malandrino maxi skirt is.  It works just as easily with flip flops as it does with heels. Here I have it paired with a navy 3/4 length ribbed sweater from GAP and Burberry scarf.
