Been doin' a lot of reading lately...Here are my five new favorite blogs!

4. The Broken Plow Blog

3. What I Wore

Fresh personal style blog by Jessica Quirk, former fashion designer turned blogger. She incorporates a wonderful mix of vintage, new, bargain buys, and diy fashion and accessories in her posts. PS she lives in Bloomington- found her blog via A.Z. Vintage- on of my favorite shops downtown.

2. Salted & Styled

Each week the blog features one food item and it's muse. I came across the blog because they featured fellow Athenian Angie Tillman of Phickles Pickles. I love her! Beautiful styling and photography; I especially love the floral design posts. http://www.saltedandstyled.com/

1. Beauty Everyday

Blog created by three Athens, GA artists that documents southern beauty, textures, seasonal southern food, and regional architecture. I've followed this one for a while but now that I'm a southern expat, I find I check it more often to get my Southern fix. P.S. Beauty Everyday just came out with a book too- stunning. http://beautyeveryday.com/
