Style South | July 2021 . Walking into someone’s home, what is the first thing you notice? As natural observers, (some more than others) many are instinctively drawn to the individually & aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Example: I am drawn to art & books. Without being intrusive, I will always ask if it is ok to peruse bookshelves and art collections when visiting someone of creative interest. I also gravitate towards the things I love, like vintage home furnishings, sculpture, and rare collections. I am drawn to the history of things. Inquisitive, I ask a million questions. To put it mildly, copious curations of hard to find artifacts of any kind can keep me entertained for hours. Favorites are vintage fashion, art, music, culture, any kind of visual vignettes: the more abundant, the better. What beautiful things do you like to collect? . . . . #capitoldebeaute #acuratedcollectionoffab #stylesouthsundays #stylesouth #thesouthernstylenetwork #beauty #fashion #style #creatives #luxury #art #interiordesign #collections #curatedhome #plants #garden #flowers #antiques #vintage #lifestyle #chicliving #contentcreators #bloggersofinstagram #aestheticfashion #bloggersofinstagram #styleblogger #contentcurator #fromthedeskofcapitoldebeaute #mypic #mycontent (at Capitol de Beaute) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSCLT6aLHz6/?utm_medium=tumblr
