Fall Lookbook
Our new fall lookbook is up, and we were excited to be able to work with Tennessee blogger/photographer stars Amanda and Kate Pulley. They came to Atlanta for a few days, and Jamie shot a bunch of product shots in our studio and then went to the abandoned Candler Mansion to shoot some photos in one of the old '20s greenhouses. It was the perfect place to shoot--eerie and dark, and the perfect backdrop for all of our fall silks and velvets.
The store is now officially stocked with lots of great cold weather vintage and some new pieces from Family Affairs and Secret Squirrel, so be sure to check it out!
I love this sweet little editorial in the latest issue of 
This weekend Silent Sundays will be holding its first ever pop-up shop at Fashion's Night Out here in Atlanta. If you're in town be sure to stop on by! We'll be selling a mix of summer and fall things, including discounted spring T.B.A., Secret Squirrel, and Family Affairs, and very possibly new fresh-off-the-boat Secret Squirrel.
We're slowly clearing out the store to make way for fall things, so be sure to check out our

We added a big batch of vintage to the store on Monday, and already things are going fast, including our bathing suits and little silk tops and skirts. Fortunately some of our favorite pieces are still available; I'm especially partial to our

Our new midsummer lookbook is now officially up on the site, and here are some behind the scenes photos I took while we were on the shoot in the little beach town of Navarre, Florida. We were afraid the day would be rainy, but it turned out to be bright and sunny and Florida-hot, and we had to take a little break for drinks at a funny beachside cabana restaurant, where there were sailboats and volleyball players out back.

Lots of sizes of our designer dresses are selling out fast, so be sure to snap up yours on sale while you can.
On Thursday we drove from Mississippi to Florida, to the little town of Navarre where we had a shoot. The beach was beautiful and not crowded, and whenever the sun felt too hot I just stepped into the water to look for sand dollars (I didn't find any whole ones). Our model couldn't have been any better--she looked adorable in the clothes, and she told us all about her recent trip to Tokyo when we took a break at a funny little beachside cafe. Right after the trip we went back to Mississippi for the night, and the next day we drove through Mobile and Montgomery and back to Georgia.
Today we crossed into Louisiana to go shopping in New Orleans, another place where I've never been and spent the whole time staring out the window in awe of all the old buildings and oak tree-lined neighborhoods. Mostly we shopped--New Orleans has lots of good, big thrift stores, and we started out on Magazine Street, ate lunch with Jamie's mom and her friend Susan at a place called Joey K's. I had a migraine (they come at the worst times for me, I swear) but wanted to see everything too much to turn around. Lili's Vintage was my favorite (we got something there for tomorrow's shoot), and the massive thrift stores were maybe better than Atlanta's. After a long day of shopping we stopped at the French Quarter for beignets at the Cafe Du Monde, and as we walked I took a ton of photos like a tourist. And now that we're back in Mississippi I'm trying to think up a future trip to the place. I think I want to go sometime in fall, when it's not too hot for wandering around and getting lost in the French Quarter.
Jamie and I are currently on a little Silent Sundays vintage-buying adventure across the deep south, and today we went through (a stormy) Alabama and then went on to Mississippi, which I am loving so far. Highlights include the welcome center (fancy!), the town of Meridian (a town full of buildings and neighborhoods that look straight out of a William Eggleston photo), and the coast, where we are right now. Sorry for the blurry photos I took. Tomorrow we'll be sightseeing as well as shopping, and there'll be lots more photos.
Because I'm a sucker for any sort of pastoral shoots from the '70s here's a little
