GUEST POST: EDMUND'S OAST // CHARLESTON, SC

Hi everyone! Annie is back for the final post of our Weekend in the City series. I hope you all have enjoyed following along as much as we've enjoyed highlighting our favorite spots! Now I just have to get her to visit Nashville :)

Hey everyone!! I’m back for my last post on my favorite topic: BRUNCH! Charleston has about a million places to eat brunch, but one of my very favorites is Edmund's Oast. It’s located in an up and coming area of Charleston, and they only serve brunch on Sundays. It’s so worth it.

Their french fries may actually be the best I’ve ever had (sorry, Bloodhound!!!). PLUS they come with this delicious curry sauce - amazing. I highly recommend the pickled shrimp, and I hear the burger is one of the best in Charleston.

Another major plus: beautiful branding and decor. For dinner (or brunch if you would rather skip the mimosas/bloodies), they have over 40 beers on tap, and some of them (including a PB&J blend) are brewed in house. Oh, and if you’re their for dinner, definitely get the cheese plate or the ricotta. YUM. 

Obviously I like the french fries.

My church is pretty casual, so my Sunday brunch outfit looks a lot like this. Cozy sweater ($19!!!), statement necklace (similar), black jeans (by far my favorite EVER), more of the same sneakers and a big bag (similar) per usual for all of my notebooks, water bottles, Bible, etc etc etc.  (Also, this is what happens when I take solo shots.)

I’ve loved this little mini-series Rachel and I have gotten to do! Isn’t she the best!? If you’re ever in Charleston, give me a shout! I’d love to meet for brunch, drinks, or coffee :) I have a feeling there might be a new place or two to show you, too. Thanks for following along and happy Thursday! Xoxo

GUEST POST: CHARLESTON FARMER'S MARKET

Hi everyone! Annie is back today for the second post in our Weekend in the City series! Today she's sharing her favorite thing to do on a Saturday morning in Charleston. Be sure to stop by her blog to see how I spend my Saturdays in Nashville! Enjoy!

Saturday morning in Charleston mean Farmers’ Market time. To be totally honest, Saturdays are usually my days that I like to sleep in, but when I have a week where I’m going to be cooking a lot, I try to make it to the Farmers’ Market in Marion Square. I love walking around (with a coffee or smoothie in hand - depending on the weather!), taking photos, and picking out some of my favorite fruits and vegetables to enjoy for the week. I love the vendors that have a little something different - from Rewined candles to Carolina sea salt - there’s a pretty cool combo of vendors and products, but definitely get there early!

Favorite things to buy include honey crisp apples and different kinds of (spicy) peppers. This weekend though, it’s time for a pumpkin! I love decorating for fall. 

Last time I was in town on a Saturday, it wasn’t quite so cool outside, so I wore comfy shorts, easy sneakers, and a scarf. For now, though, I would still go for comfort with a pair of my new favorite black jeans instead of my silk shorts and maybe add a coat to the look (I’m dying over this one). 

Shirt | Scarf (similar) | Shoes | Jeans | Glasses | Bag

GUEST POST: THE VENDUE // CHARLESTON, SC

Happy Thursday, everyone! Annie is here to kick off the start of our Weekend in the City series, and she's got a great post for you on where to get drinks while in Charleston! Make sure to check out my Nashville pick over on her blog!

Hi everyone! To kick off our weekend in the city collaboration, Rachel and I decided to feature our favorite spots to grab a drink in town. I loooove having people visit me in Charleston, and one of my favorite things to do is take them to get drinks somewhere fun. There are lots of fun options, but if dinner is after sunset, The Rooftop at the Vendue is my favorite spot! It boasts beautiful views of East Bay, which hosts some of the best restaurants in Charleston. You can also see the water, which isn’t the case for some of the other rooftops in town. My favorite drink to order: The Skinny which is Tito’s, St. Germain, pomegranate purée, and grapefruit juice - light and refreshing! Another option for the margarita lovers (or Instagram-seekers) is the Hot Lolita which is habanero-infused Don Julio Blanco, Cointreu, and cactus pear purée - it’s the hot pink beauty from my Instagram and above!

We’re in the south, so even in October and November, I look for light layers in dark, fall colors. My go-to uniform is my pair of trouser jeans (above), my Tibi black racerback tank (above), a light blazer (similar above), black wedges (booties above), gold accessories (Charleston Rice Beads, of course), and a pop of color in a clutch (Clare V. foldover above). Really, I wear this outfit too often, but I they are some of my favorite pieces, and those are the things that make you feel the most confident, you know?!

If you ever make your way to Charleston - which you should - put rooftop drinks on the to-do list (and give me a call, too)!!
