Tomorrow morning my dear friend Mackenzie from Design Darling will be launching her latest endeavor, Design Darling: the boutique. I can’t express how proud I am of Mackenzie, but I’m going to try my hardest. 🙂 Mackenzie started blogging while she was in college and we met her senior year during a blogging event. From the second you meet Mackenzie you know you have made a life long friend. She is extremely sweet and equally as stylish. After graduating from college Mackenzie got a 9 to 5 job, but simply did not feel fulfilled. She quit and went after her passion, which has translated into her new shop. The Design Darling boutique will be a curated collection of colorful accessories and decor that follow Mackenzie’s preppy, modern, traditional with a twist aesthetic. Above is a sneak peek into some of the items that I know I will be eagerly adding to my shopping cart come Thursday morning. My favorite pick has to be the framed scarf! I have my own hung in my gallery wall, but it’s a bit lonely.

Bravo Mackenzie! It took me many, many, many 9 to 5 jobs and countless tears before I finally decided to take the plunge and go after my passion. So proud that you took the leap so young and I can wait to see you take off!
