Southern Sophisticate

primadonna girl, all i ever wanted was the world; lover of bon mots, big hair, and blogging.

what sort of diary should i like mine to be? something looseknit and yet not slovenly, so elastic that it will embrace anything, solemn, slight or beautiful that comes into my mind.
i should like it to resemble some deep old desk, or capacious hold-all, in which one flings a mass of odds and ends without looking them through.

New on the blog: Stay American, Baby.

One of the best feelings in the world is holding a small sleeping child and feeling them snuggle closer to you.

To all my followers.

I love you all but I’m letting you know that I don’t claim to be someone I am not, nor do I put on a persona for tumblr (i.e. “prep” blogs). I wear what I want, post what I like and live the life I lead and refuse to apologize for any of it. To those of you who understand that, I love you all and appreciate it. This isn’t a popularity contest people! We’re all here to to find some way to spend our time and enjoy ourselves, not seek acceptance from people we hardly know. 

This. 

First yacht party of the summer! Love my girls <3

Sometimes (read: often), I go watch La Blogotheque’s Bon Iver videos and reminisce about their ACL Live taping; the fact that I was only ten feet away from them, and the fact that I will probably never go to another concert that could ever emotionally affect me in the same way. I still get chills whenever a Bon Iver song happens to come up on my iTunes, and For Emma and Skinny Love will always have a special place in my heart.
