Tabor Pull x the Queen City Style: Father's Day

A while back I shared with you a stylish pull from Tabor men’s store by my friend David Wakins. David has such great taste, and I spend a fair amount of time at Tabor, so their little fashion collab was one I simply couldn’t not share! In anticipation of Father’s Day this coming weekend, my friends at Tabor asked me to share some of my favorite items in the store now. From the delightful Father/Son read, Men and Manners, by David Coggins, to the bi-colored and tri-colord interchangeable ribbon watch bands that remind me of my own Dad’s to the ideal “beach to bar” All Day Short by Faherty Brand, there is something stylish on this list for every Dad at every price point!

If you’re in the Charlotte area, hop on over to Tabor and check all these goodies and much more out for your very own self. Outside of the QC? Shop the edit below here. Happy Father’s Day to all the Dad’s!

Tabor x David Watkins

A few weeks ago I had to share David Watkins’ blog post on Men’s Cocktail Attire. I think David has such great taste, and he is one of my Go-To guys for thoughts, opinions, advice —anything on men’s style. If you follow me over on Instagram, you already know I spend a fair amount of my time at men’s clothing store Tabor when I am personal shopping or editorial styling for men. Last week Tabor shared some of David’s top picks from their store right now. I loved it so much, again I had to share it with you! Go see the great threads and folks over at Tabor—and go see David at House of Abbeydale— and tell them I said hello!

For the current issue of Ballantyne Magazine, we couldn't leave the boys hanging, so we included a little something for the fashion-loving men in our city.  Your guy a hipster or hipster wanna be? (Aren't they all nowadays?) You're in luck!  Thanks to local shop, Tabor, we've got the hippest of the hip right here for you.  Say you dig retro glam like me?  Well you're also in luck!

1. Every man should carry a pack of playing cards.  You never know when y'll need to duel it out the polite way. Ditch the phone.  Let's have some old fashioned fun say?
2. Cools stars on your sneaks are no longer just for the hip Mom.  Golden Goose is officially taking over the world.
3. He can stylishly keep all his sentiments in this preppy cool notebook by Thom Browne.
4. Every gentleman should always carry a pocketsquare. You never know when you might need him to wipe your tears.
5. Skultuna red and silver bulls eye cuff links.  So chic.

1. I styled these Oscar de la Renta polka dot sequin ball drop earrings at The Chinese Lantern Festival for SouthPark Magazine.  Too good not to share twice!
2. Mirrors on the heels of your velvet pumps.  Does it get any more Retro Chic?!
3. The striped ribbon hair tie is so 80's prep!
4. The vintage suede and leather bag was nabbed from Ballantyne's own Nouveux Consignment.  (You MUST visit.) Coach continues to impress me.  I really want their version.
