LBD hits the road - antiques and garden show of nashville




Who's up for a road trip?

I'm so excited for next week because I'll be traveling down to Nashville to attend the 25th annual, Antiques and Garden Show of Nashville. It's the largest show in the US - three full days of rows and rows of amazing furniture, lighting, accessories, gardens and horticultural gems. Anyone who follows me on Instagram, or who has read this blog for more than a hot minute has an idea of how thrilling this will be for me.

And what's even more exciting is that the show has invited me to come as part of their inaugural blogger event. Me and a handful of other lucky bloggers will be given full access to the show, speaking engagements and even a private blogger party with us and a bunch of amazing design and lifestyle leaders.

I'll be there with keynote speaker Diane Keaton (who has actually written books on architecture and is a serial home renovator), Suzanne Kasler, Alexa Hampton, Michael Devine, Jane Scott Hodges of Leontine Linens, Rebecca Wesson Darwin and Haskell Harris of Garden & Gun, Kreis Beall of Blackberry Farm, Markham Roberts and Christopher Spitzmiller! Are you kidding me?! I know, right!

I mean really. I have no words. Now to find something to wear! :) I'll be posting like crazy on Instagram the whole time and I'll be sure to do a recap when I get back.

So those of you from Nashville, give me the skinny - any other stores I should be checking out while I'm there? Restaurants? Anyone else going? Let me know so we can say hi!

I haven't bought my tickets yet - hope they're not sold out! Email me and I'll send you the names of some places. How fun!!
