Five Quick Tips:

Go-to coffee spot

Barista Parlor has multiple locations throughout Nashville with great coffee, a yummy southern biscuit, and of course I can’t resist the clever marketing! 

Best place for a cocktail

I try to avoid the trendy, so I’d say old school classics like the GreenHouse or it’s fun to sit outside in the garden at Urban Cowboy.

Kid-Friendly Activity

A visit to Cheekwood.

Favorite place to get pampered

Escape Day Spa.

Favorite spot for a Scenic Stroll

Percy Warner Park.

What makes Nashville special to you?

The people! There’s such a lovely community of creative women in Nashville that make this a very special place to call home. And while there has been tremendous growth in our city over the last several years, it still feels like a small town at heart.

What are your go-to brunch spots in Nashville?

The Picnic Cafe, The Food Company, Greenery Co. 

Favorite dinner restaurants?

Mas Tacos, Rolf and Daughters, Roberta’s Pizza

What are your top hotel recommendations?

The Noelle is in a great old building and I love their little shop on the main level. Or the Hermitage is a classic with a beautiful lobby and great restaurant.

Favorite local boutiques, vintage stores, etc.? 

GasLamp One and GasLamp Too are my weekly go-tos for my vintage fix! And don’t miss charming downtown Franklin!

What are your can’t-miss recommendations for friends visiting from out of town?

Cheekwood is always a favorite!

A touristy attraction that you’d actually suggest?

Robert’s Western World on Broadway is an old school honky tonk and lots of fun! 

Any other Nashville hidden gems you’d be willing to share?

Don’t miss charming downtown Franklin! Grab lunch at Merridee’s and stroll the “back in time" sweet little shopping streets, plus some great antiquing nearby!   

How would you style Sunshine Tienda for a day in Nashville?

You know I just can’t resist a happy print and think the new pareo patterns are just darling! I’ll be pairing mine with classic white button-ups, my favorite strappy sandals, simple hoop earrings, and of course a great palm hat for sun protection!  

And finally, tell us what makes you “Vacation Happy"?

Stumbling upon an amazing flea market, yummy food alfresco, and preferably sunshine and the smell of the ocean!
