As soon as I could dress myself I have been obsessed with fashion and clothing. I used to change clothes many times throughout the day so I could express myself through my outfit. I have always enjoyed flipping through magazines looking for new trends and following what the celebrities were wearing. When I was in high school, we had a local boutique owner speak to our class about his job. This is when I learned about buying and what a buyer/entrepreneur does on a day to day. I fell in love with fashion all over again, and I knew I would work in the industry one day!
So here I am! I have 7+ years experience in the retail industry, and I am about to graduate with my Bachelor’s Degree in Fashion Marketing and Management from The Art Institute of Charlotte. I currently work at Aeropostale as an Assistant Manager. I absolutely love it! I enjoy working in management and in the teen retail market. Although, I enjoy what I do now I hope to open a boutique in the future.
I currently live in Charlotte, North Carolina; however I was born and raised the heart of Dixie, Alabama. I am a true Southern lady, brought up to have respect, grace, and style. My blog is dedicated to highlight these attributes and the charm of the south. Not only do I enjoy fashion, I also enjoy cooking, interior design, beauty, and being inspired. Southern Lady Style will feature posts about all these categories with a little Southern charm added in.
I am so excited to be starting my first blog and I plan to take this opportunity and run with it!
