The Tour Continues: D.C. & Atlanta

Our D.C. stop was at the one and only Jonathan Adler in gorgeous Georgetown (seriously, so much house porn- I could totally live there- reminds me so much of Boston’s own Beacon Hill).

Was so thrilled to see my book in one of my favorite stores- atop one of my most loved dining tables and accessorized by the amazing new  Globo boxes I’m obsessed with!!! It was surreal for sure (like this whole experience has been).

I went a little more casual in the outfit department this time, since it was raining.

Dress- Banana Republic (40% off today too!) // Tights- Spanx (reversible-the best) // Booties- Ann Taylor // Clutch- Clare Vivier// Earrings- Alexis Bittar // Necklace- Kate Spade (old)

The crowd was AWESOME.  So awesome. It was amazing to meet so many readers from the area.  Andrew was busy chatting everyone up in line and snapped this great shot for me!

One incredible reader waited in line at Baked & Wired for an hour so she could bring me D.C.’s best cupcakes to try (unbelievably sweet)- and let me tell you- they were MIND BLOWING. Best cupcakes I’ve ever had.  I tried all of them while sitting in my hotel room at 10:30 p.m.- not the best idea right before you go try to sleep!

After the party I met up with some Miss Porter’s classmates I haven’t seen in YEARS for dinner at Martyn’s- which happens to be where Jackie O (a MPS alum too) got engaged to JFK! So cool. :)

Then we were off to Atlanta the next morning to do a signing at Ballard Designs!  I order from Ballard ALL THE TIME for my clients (and myself) and have never seen their store so this was super fun for me!  I loved the little table they set up for me…

Check out that CHAIR!!!! I am loving their new cheetah fabric on the oval back Louis chairs (I have the rectangle back version in my own dining room in the book!)

I had a leopard- on-cheetah situation while signing books- kinda perfect (and maybe a sign that I’ve taken this too far?) Dress by DVF and necklace from Chloe & Isabel.

We stayed in midtown and walked into the Georgian Terrace to get a quick bite and I was all ” Wait, I’ve blogged about this place before!!!” So funny!
