A couple of weeks ago I took a trip to Steve McKenzie’s in Atlanta, GA and instantly fell in love with the store. They had a wonderfully curated collection of home decor and accessories, not to mention a fabulous book collection that would make any design enthusiast swoon. While on this trip, I noticed a beautiful book called Beauty Everyday, which is 65 pages of dreamy photographs of the South, perfect for a bride’s guest book for all the special gatherings.  The eye-catching blue linen cover features art work by Athens-artist, Rebecca Wood.  You can purchase this top choice at Steve McKenzie’s in their Atlanta store or online.
As I celebrated my one year anniversary last month, I instantly thought of this book as  perfect bridal registry gift for a stylish Black Southern Belle who loves showcasing her southern pride or even as a gift to give your matron of honor as a token of your appreciation for all of her work (we tend to get a little crazy as Southern brides:) .  Here are a few reasons why we love this book.
Beautiful Addition to a Coffee Table: Here at Black Southern Belle we are addicted to coffee table books at this one is perfect for a new bride looking to start a collection as newlywed. This is one even you and your future mother in law can agree on.
Celebration of the South: Anything that shows off the beauty of the South is all good with us. We love this book because it showcases the beauty that is the South and what better gift to receive when starting your new married life than a piece of your upbringing that influences everything you do, including your marriage.
Gorgeous Photography: We don’t need any excuse to enjoy great photography, but starting a new phase of life is a perfect reason if you ask us. This book is chalk full of gorgeous images and will be sure to inspire you in your southern home.
Conversation Starter for Family and Friends: Being able to host and entertain important for a Black Southern Belle and this book is a great conversation starter. We all love showing our state or city pride and these images are the perfect way to showcase and learn more about the South.
Great Addition to Any Home Library: Although technology is king these days, there is something about having a library collection to pass on to future generations that will never stop being attractive to us. This is a great book to get you or your newly engaged daughter or friend started with making memories that will last a life time.
