Effortless Style, Timeless Friends, and Ann Mashburn

Once again, I’m lucky to have friends who are not only willing to help me out, but who also happen to be gorgeous models with beautiful homes. While having drinks with Courtney and Lauren, the upcoming Ann Mashburn trunk show came up, and I couldn’t resist asking if they’d join me for a little photo shoot. Thankfully, they agreed, and the results were even better than I imagined.

The photos turned out stunning, but the hardest part was deciding what they should wear. Ann sent us so many incredible pieces this season, all reflecting her signature blend of modern polish and classic ease.

As a child of the ’80s, I grew up obsessing over Ralph Lauren ads and that effortlessly elegant, all-American look that felt both timeless and aspirational. Ann Mashburn captures that same spirit with a fresh, modern twist that makes every piece feel relevant today.

If you search her name, you’ll find countless articles celebrating her success alongside her husband, Sid, and describing her style perfectly:

Effortlessly stylish. Confident, feminine, and casually chic without being overly trendy.

Curated and classic.Thoughtfully edited collections that blend her own designs with timeless finds.

Confidence-building. Fashion meant to make you feel like the best version of yourself.

It’s easy to see why Ann Mashburn has become one of our most-loved brands, and why Courtney and Lauren were the perfect women to showcase her designs. Both exude the kind of effortless grace that Ann’s pieces are made for, and their homes reflect that same elevated, approachable taste.

Stop in to The Hive starting this Thursday, November 6 through Sunday, November 9 to shop our Ann Mashburn and AGL trunk show. All Ann Mashburn and AGL pieces are 20% off!

Owner | The Shoe Hive/The Hive

I spent the first part of my career as a copywriter who helped elected officials brag about their support for entrepreneurs. Then I decided to get off the printed page and do it myself. The Shoe Hive made a splash on the fashion scene in Washington, and was named the region’s best shoe store in its first year. Fourteen years later, I have tripled the store’s size and also opened a sister store, The Hive.  At The Hive, we offer clothing lines that are sophisticated and approachable like Rag & Bone, Tibi, Raquel Allegra, Ulla Johnson and Veronica Beard. We have tried to fill our racks with clothing you will want to wear all the time, elevated basics that are worth the investment.
