Hello, 13!

January is on its way out the door and, boy, what a great start to 2013 it has been! I know I am 29 days late, but HAPPY NEW YEAR! For me 2012 was nothing less than thrilling and refreshing; I can already tell 2013 is going to follow in its same foot steps! For those of you who don't know, this is my last semester of undergrad and I am beyond words excited to see what comes in my next chapter! 

 The Adair world has also been running full throttle with the start of the new year! January has consisted of lots of new buying, branding, and planning for the future- y'all buckle up there is a lot coming your way! ;) Not only do we have fresh looks coming for our adored customers, but also an updated space for those local customers. That's right, Adair's "office/showroom" has had a facelift!

 

Sorry the pics are a little blurry (I was workin with my iphone)! As always if you are in the Charlotte/Concord area and would like to come do a little hands on shopping shoot us an email (info@shopadair.com) and we will make it happen! 

Welcome to the Jungle

 new obsession- animal print! 

animal print, in the past, had never been at the top of my favs,

but it's quickly climbing the latter. 

oh yeah- i'm in desperate need of a little cheetah in my closet.

i love when it is paired in an unexpected combo as the grounding piece of the outfit!

loving the animal+neon mix

and the animal+floral mix

these are a few of my favs. they could seriously spice up any mix.

 1. River Island Cat Eye Sunglasses 2. ASOS Leopard Print Skinny Waist Belt 3. Sam Edelman Brahma 4. Guess Palban Footwear 5. Shopadair.com Leopard Trim Blouse 6. ASOS Animal Print Watch

i think i'm channeling my wild side for the weekend 

and

 i'm thinking an afternoon trip to nordstroms semi anniversary sale is the perfect place to find my animal attire!

here is to a perfect friday-

happy weekend, y'all!

Life Lately

summer time and the living is easy- keeping to a schedule, not so much.

sorry, i've been absent lately sitting down at the computer has proved harder to accomplish with the sun shine calling my name. here is a little of life lately and a promise to get on this blog more regularly!

pineapple chunks: boating: trunk shows: nights with great friends

Emi-Jay's On The Way

i have recently been turned on to Emi-Jay hair ties and 

i am hooked. they are ah-mazing!

i have some thick hair and yall, they hold a high pony with ease, don't rip or crease your hair,

and double as an addition to your arm party when not needed in your hair!

best news of all, Emi-Jay's are coming to ADAIR! 

in just a few weeks they will be here. so, yall be on the look out!

the story behind Emi-Jay's is pretty awesome too! owners, both fifteen, started the company and have seen great success! did i mention they give 15% of sales to charity? check out the story, here.

i know, your loving them even more now, right?!?

Ombre Affairs

i am quite the ombre fan.

Pretty, Pretty, Pinks

if you walk in my bedroom at my parents house, 

it might just take you back to middle school days!

it's pink. i mean really pink.

it takes PINK to a whole new level- i'm talking pepto pink, people.

anyways, my love for pink was drained through high school 

because of my overly pink room, but i am happy to say i've hit another pink streak!

pick a shade, any shade, and i'll take it!

...And We Have A Graduate

Cook # 2 has officially made it. 

Rile is a graduate! 

I have to admit, I have a pretty top notch brother! We've grown oddly close over the past few years (maybe too close at times, haha), but he is still my little brother so, I am gonna be a little sappy- I'm really proud of the guy he is turned into. He is personable, outgoing, smart, and he knows how to have a good time like his big sis!

Actually, he is already celebrating by jumping out of planes!

I literally got this pic via text about fifteen minutes ago. My mom is still recovering from the slight heart attack she had when she was told Riley was sky diving- ALL IS CLEAR HE IS SAFE AND LANDED!

On to a happy weekend- hope you all have a great one!

Here are a few tunes that are setting the tone for my weekend.
