My childhood best friend, Jamie, and I are heading to Tennessee for an action-packed long weekend, and I can’t wait to get there. Being city slickers, we don’t have any pure country gear to wear, but I imagine we may pick something up along with way. In the meanwhile, I’m wearing in these booties, which have a touch of country twang with a lot of metropolis cool in the mix. To work, they look great with opaque tights and a jersey dress, but down south, I think it’s going to be more of a jeans situation.
In all honesty, I’m hyped to do some shopping, but most excited for the food that we will eat, as NYC BBQ certainly can be tasty, but I hear Memphis is were we definitely need to go to authentically chow down. If you’ve been to (or are from) Memphis or Nashville, any and all shopping and food suggestions are welcome! In the meanwhile, here’s how I’m sporting my Tennessee accessories in anticipation of the trip.

Julia, go to Parnassus Books, the store owned by author Ann Patchett (State of Wonder, Bel Canto). It’s in a strip mall but legendary!! I love this look on you!!
