Cool Places/ The Pink Zebra

2/12/2013
Exploring different parts of Atlanta is pretty interesting to me. While in Little Five Points after a photoshoot for D.Love I laid my eyes on The Pink Zebra Boutique. The decor is pink with zebra prints. The vibe of the boutique feels very Love & Hip Hop. It has a hip urban feel. Like it ought to be in the boroughs of New York. 
  I found the open layout of the shoe area inviting and a wonderful overwhelming feeling of shoes everywhere. The white chandelier adds a cool expensive classy vibe. It was unique for the place to be painted in the black and white. I definately would suggest The Pink Zebra when your in Little Five.

Cool Places/ Houndstooth Road

8/09/2012
While on a crucial search for a awesome place for an upcoming interview; I walked past a shop and took a step back. The logo design on of the store caught my eye and was intriguing so of course I had to go in right? My gosh when I walked in it was bicycle heaven. The awesome exposed brick and the lit up bicycle! Guess what ? The bike is over 100 years old and looks awesome. I was greeted by Samantha the co-owner of the shop. Her and her husband; Jae own the shop. This place is filled with awesome products like fashionable night jackets, hand painted helmets, and handmade colored straw baskets. I had a great time seeing all the neat products in their store. Definitely this is a cool place to buy bikes and other bicycle needs. Houndstooth Road is where its at. Also check out videos from the product makers and links.Especially Vespertine Nyc.

Well the wait is over my people. Feast your eyes on this cool place named Squash Blossom where you can find unique  awesome pieces whether it be jewelry or cool prints on clothes.

The ceiling was cool, the racks of clothes and of course the scrabble piece necklace was awesome that I bought one; it was $17 and I couldn't resist to have my letter N.This place is one of those hidden gem places ya know?

Cool Places/ Leon's

5/29/2012

 A restaurant named Leon's  in Decatur has gotten a face lift.To my understanding the place has been there for quite some time. It has rugged,laid back feel you know like kinolk magazine?The manger is really nice and was more than happy for me to take photos. The prices are fair and it's a cool place to lounge after work.Also I like the rusted sign outside it makes you curious about what's inside. It seems like a lot of  places is changing up their look like I mentioned over here.

Cool Places/ The Yogurt Tap

5/15/2012
One day after a long day of class a friend of mine Jessica ( you'll see her this week) hit me up and she introduced me to The Yogurt Tap. A cute contemporary yogurt spot where it is 39 cents per oz. To my understanding they got a face lift and I  must say I'm liking the new look of the place. Like a little kid I tried almost all the samples there and came to the conclusion coconut was my favorite. I'm a chocolate lover so I  topped it with white chocolate chips. Both together was a  great combination. If your in decatur and feeling for some frozen yogurt stop there.

Cool Places/ 16 Handles

4/04/2012
Last year I went to fabulous New York and I had the pleasure to going to "16 Handles" a wonderful yogurt shop. I was seriously thinking of opening one here but I'm only 18 and where am I going to come up with that kind of money? If your in East Village I urge you to stop by. I'm having cravings for some as I type this lol.

Cool Places/ The Bakery at Cakes & Ale

3/07/2012
 Lately I've been paying more attention to stores as I walk to school in Decatur and this place caught my eye just like the restaurant No. 246. It's the bakery part of Cake & Ale restaurant (see the sign behind the front one?) This bakery has great macrons. I just absolutely fell in love with  the charm of this place. How cute is their packaging boxes and the exposed saying on the wall ( they unveiled it during construction, how priceless)

Cool Places / No. 246

11/02/2011
No.246 is located in Downtown Decatur. The setting is laid back, the staff is friendly, and have a great genre of music playing while you dine.
Since I started AI I've past No.246 resturant a couple of times and loved it the moment  I saw the setting from outside therefore it was a must to show my readers.
Also I loved how this place is decorated, the lights , the lightly expose brick in the back , the shelves, tables fans. It has a contemporary and chic look, everything in here I just love. See more for yourself below.
