Drew and I got the chance to do a Southerly road trip-themed guest post over on the Etsy blog. Well, Drew made the collages and I got to pick out all the stuff I’d buy on Etsy if I had the funds and the chance to go on an epic Southern road trip.  You can check it all out here.

Photographer Ferdinando Scianna took these photos of Nashville, Tennessee, in 1986, at least a few years before I ever went there. I can’t remember the first time, really. My grandparents moved to Tennessee when I was a kid, and I have some vague memories of small town country stores and state parks, but not really the city. I do remember going to Nashville with my grandma sometime in the ’90s, though. She took us on a tour, taking us by the funny Parthenon replica, to the Ryman Theatre, and to the Opryland Hotel. On our way back we drove along winding roads, past country star mansions with white gates and flashy facades. The city back then was over the top and much more hokey than hip, and I loved it.

It’s been gloomy around here.  We just got back from a weekend trip to Signal Mountain, Tennessee, and it rained so much and it was so cold that we stayed inside the entire time. I didn’t really mind though. I’m getting used to the gloom.

For one thing it can make for pretty photos, like these. Australian designer Carly Hunter took her 35 mm camera with her to New Zealand to shoot some images of her AW13 collection, and got some suitably dramatic campaign photos in the process . . .

Drew and I did a little roundup of our favorite spots in Atlanta over on the Steven Alan blog.  I’ve already posted here about a lot of the places, including West Egg. It’s one of our favorite restaurants, and one of the few pseudo-southern style ones we can still eat at now that we’re vegan. But we’d never taken photos there, so last weekend we used the S.A. blog post as an excuse to go out for dinner. We both had tofu scrambles, and then we walked around Westside Provisions a little; the sun was out and I wore the Carla hat that our new Steven Alan store was nice enough to send me. It’s something I’d had on my wishlist for years, and it’s definitely something that will be coming with me on our Tybee Island trip in June.
