Southern Style with Draper James

Y’all, when I heard Draper James was opening their third store here in Lexington, KY at The Summit at Fritz Farm, it made all my southern style dreams come true! Draper James represents what I love most about southern style–classy with a fun twist. Style is important, but you should enjoy the pieces you wear.

Dress: c/o Draper James (same pattern) // Wedges: Target (similar) // Handbag: Who What Wear via Target //  Earrings: Sugarfix via Target  Initial Necklace: c/o Dixieland Boutique // Watch: c/o Daniel Wellington–use promo code BRIGHTONABUDGET // Link Bracelet: J. Crew Factory c/o The Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass

One of the things I love most about Draper James is their beautiful patterns. As soon as I saw this Hydrangea Row Hillsboro Dress, I fell in love! The bold pattern is very eye-catching, and the dress has a great fit that you can wear anywhere. The dress is very well made, and the fabric is thicker and comfortable. It’s the type of dress that you just throw on for effortless style.

Since I wanted to let the dress shine, I paired it with neutral accessories. My nude wedges dress it  up. I added my new favorite bag for summer, this round  bag, to keep things fun and summery. My statement earrings were the perfect match, but I went with a simple initial necklace so that it wasn’t competing for attention. A simple arm stack in gold finished the look.

If you’re in the central Kentucky area, be sure to stop by Draper James‘ new store here in Lexington, KY at the Summit at Fritz Farm!
