tegg y french! ON THE COVER:

How does a girl from New Jersey become a Southern style icon? “I am obsessed with 1960s Palm Beach, which is the inspiration behind many of my outfi ts,” the blogger, actress and fashion maven explains. From her blog and Instagram, it’s easy to see that inspiration. Pinks, lush greens, electric turquoise and just about every pattern imaginable are some of the hallmarks of Teggy’s style, both in fashion and home décor. Add to that the fact that she truly loves the South – check out her photos from her trip to The Graduate hotel or her Derby inspiration posts – and it’s kind of a no-brainer. Teggy’s style may have lots of retro inspirations, but her aesthetic defi nitely mirrors what Lexington women are loving right now. As a mama, a fashionista, an entrepreneur and basically a virtual friend, Teggy is one to watch! Teggy so loves ‘60s style that she designed her own line of kaftans – something we also happen to adore. “I love the way women put themselves together during that era (even whilst lounging at home), so you will often see a nod to that time in my designs,” she says. “When I fi rst started my blog, it was always with the intention of one day having my own line and I’m truly thrilled to now be creating Teggy French Kaftans.” Visit teggyfrench.com or shop her online boutique: shopteggyfrench.com!
