We have a Coterie Crush on Lauren Leonard. We met her at the Southern C Summit last week and loved her energy and enthusiasm for her design business and the South.

We enjoyed catching up with Lauren after she got back from her trip to Jekyll Island and we discussed some of her latest loves. Here are her favorites.

Fabric collection:

Oh, so many. Quadrille, Elizabeth Hamilton and Peter Dunham

China pattern:

Sao Paulo by Poc A Poc

Design blog:

Good Bones, Great Pieces

Paint color:

Benjamin Moore Vale Mist….it’s the perfect neutral that’s not beige!

Candle:

Cote D’ Azur by SedaFrance

Antiques Shop:

The Antique Market (Jacksonville)

Artist:

Wendy Martin

Interior designer:

Melanie Davis, Tim Barber, and Melissa Ervin

Collection:

Design books….I pick one up everywhere I travel and make a note of where it came and the date on the inside cover.

Southern Essential:

Outdoor dining and good bar-b-que (and a good cocktail doesn’t hurt either!)

Lauren’s style in five words or less:

Classics are a sure thing.

Lauren has a great blog, The Cottage Mix, and we appreciate and enjoyed her post about The Southern C Summit. Thrilled she joined us!

    Way to go Lauren!!! I had the pleasure of meeting Lauren at the conference and we both live in Jacksonville but didn’t know each other prior to the conference. We live 10 minutes from each other. Thanks for connecting us Cheri through your wonderful conference.
