Savannah: Day Out

After hell and back with finals and family issues, my gentleman caller and I decided to take a weekend trip to Savannah, GA. It's supposed to be one of the best places you can go in the south, and although I live in Georgia, I'd never been. 

We stayed in a really nice hotel about 20 minutes from historic downtown and a few exits from Tybee Island, although we never made it to the beach. It was too cold for that anyway. I had a hard time packing simply because it was so chilly. 

Regardless of the weather, I still enjoyed myself. Downtown historic Savannah was so nice. It had the diversified set up of Manhattan, but still retained it's southern charm. Every style of restaurant you could want, specialty shops and even a Marc by Marc Jacobs store.

My Outfit:

F21

Leather Bomber Jacket

Tights

American Eagle

Gray Cable Knit Sweater

Rue 21

Floral Skirt

Silver Flats (not shown)

Savannah Candy Kitchen

The biggest candy store I've ever seen. Three separate sections, all filled with sweets. Pralines, Ice Cream, Caramel Corn, Taffy, Gumballs. It was a little kids dream. 

Gelato in every flavor you could think of. I wanted some, but it was too cold. - Savannah Candy Kitchen

This was a licorice lover's heaven. I had peach, watermelon, grape & green apple. - Savannah Candy Kitchen

Food
Like I said, Savannah had so many options for food. All more delicious than the other.

BBQ Chicken Flatbread - Sam Sneads Oak Bar & Grill

The most delicious crab chowder in the world. I want vats of this for my fridge.

I just thought this was the funniest name for a bar. "Let's all go to Wet Willie's!"

Material Girl

My friend got the urge, at 8:15 p.m., to drive to Macy's to find a dress for her birthday. Mind you, Macy's closes at 9 p.m., and the drive takes about 15 minutes. I though we weren't going t make it, but she had hope.

We made it with enough time for her to find a party dress and for me to raid the clearance rack. Yes, clearance, gasp (I'm a fashion lover, not a be-broke-and-live-in-the-gutter-with-my clothes -to-keep-me-comfort lover).

As I was scaling the racks, I noticed the most adorably pearl and stud embellished cardigan from Madonna's daughter's fashion line, Material Girl.

Originally priced at 39.99 now down to 9.99? Yes please. I also bought a silver bow bangle to feed my unhealthy addiction to bows (to paint a picture, I have a bow tattoo). On sale for 2.00. Ow! With only about 20 minutes to spare in Macy's, I think I did pretty good.

p.s. new Visual Diary post for today ♥
