5 Most-Viewed Southern Style Posts | I found this interesting - some of my favorite posts are not what readers liked the most!
- I used to beg my mom to change my name to Elizabeth. She obviously refused.
- This was my very first "style" post on Southern Style - taken in 1 minute with an iPhone. The cropping, the HDR...You're welcome.
- I would love to publish a novel one day.
- I have to light a candle when I clean my room. This one is my favorite.
- Zelle is already a short name to have a nickname for, but my friends often call me Z or Zia.
- I absolutely love interior design and interned with Liz Carroll Interiors when I first graduated from college.
- I am a Realtor.
- I'm really weird about texture - food, touching something, etc. For instance, I refuse to eat a hot dog because #texture. Pretty sure it drives my family and Stephen crazy.
- I love taking photos - follow my photography Instagram here.
- I've been doing Pure Barre since October, and I still haven't managed to reach 100 classes. Hoping to complete that one by July!
- I have a very strange obsession with flamingos. I found this adorable flamingo birthday party on Pinterest, only to realize it was for a two year-old.
- I have a major obsession with Grey's Anatomy. The fact that season 12 is over is a little saddening and though I haven't loved all the drama surrounding Callie as of late, I am so sad she won't be a part of Grey's anymore!
- Summer days with my family, friends, and Stephen - this time of year is my absolute favorite.
- Peonies, peonies and more peonies.
- My sweet Sophie pup.
- This CC cream - I wear it as a base for my everyday makeup (sometimes on it's own) and it's perfect for a pool or beach day as it has SPF 50. P.S. I wear "light."
- This swim top - I've shared it before and it is seriously my favorite. I have it in a couple of prints and seriously wear it way too much. It is also on sale with the code SAVE40SWIM.
- These shorts - I bought them to wear for my birthday on Saturday and I know I'll be wearing them all summer long. Loving the style and the print!
- These sunglasses | I love a new pair of sunglasses, and these will be a staple in these warmer months {and year-round}. I chose the tortoise-shell polarized version to keep my eyes protected from the summer sun.
- This jumpsuit | I've been looking for a simple black jumpsuit and I love this one. And it's under $40!
5 Most-Viewed Southern Style Posts | I found this interesting - some of my favorite posts are not what readers liked the most!
- Hillary Says Yes: A Surprise Proposal | this one does not surprise me at all - we had so many friends that shared this post and it's definitely one of my favorites as well!
- Barre to Brunch | not to surprised on this one either! All the posts I've done on Pure Barre have been in the top 15 of my most-viewed posts.
- Minted | This one is surprising. I liked the outfit and the French Connection top is a favorite, but it's definitely not even in my top 25 favorite posts. There was a giveaway, but there wasn't a large participation in that so it's still interesting as to why so many people viewed this one.
- Sunned | Another interesting choice! Definitely not one I would choose as a favorite.
- Mother's Day with High Strung | I do love this one. I loved having my sweet mama on the blog so having this in the top 5 is no surprise!
