b: catherine, let's pretend you and i were going to europe together for the summer. (sounds awesome, right?) would you rather stay in fancy hotels and get room service or travel around and stay in random off the beaten path places? and no, you can't say both.

c: Thank you so much for inviting me! That's really sweet of you. Well, since I'm going with my creatively inspiring friend Bri, I KNOW we would rock those hole-in-the-wall restaurants for gnocci in Florence, little known boutiques with weird hours for chic dresses in Amsterdam, and countryside chateaus for way too many glasses of Cotes du Rhone in France. When are we going?

this week, for {day in the life} I am all giddy to feature catherine sheppard from The Life Styled. i first met catherine when she styled me on the rue magazine & ban.do photo shoot for issue 1. she has such a likable energy about her, and let's not forget that she also has a phenomenal sense of personal style. after all, that's what the girl does to bring home that bacon! i feel lucky that miss stylist extraordinaire is sharing with us some of her top buys. feelin holiday spend happy? well follow the links to catherine's items to start spending!
