Lemon & Lime Event Design

I don’t know about you, but I absolutely love finding out what other people deem their favorite things.  Nothing super serious – just the little items that they consider essential to their lifestyle and that make them happy!  I particularly enjoy finding out what creative people love – hence why I had to ask Ashley & Katey to share what they can’t live without!  We’ll start with Ashley – here’s what she considers to be her must-have items:

Sunglasses

I probably don’t look as cool as I think I do in my aviators but I love my shades anyway!  They’re perfect for people watching in addition to keeping the sun out of my eyes.  And when I wear them at work events I can be checking the room over like the secret service and nobody knows.

Essie nail polish

I love Watermelon for when I’m feeling fun and spunky and need some color.  I tend to wear black/grey a lot so a bright pink polish is a great accent!  Mink Muff is my “I mean business” go-to color.

Pandora Radio

My current favorite station is Mumford & Sons; I blast it pretty much all day in my office.

Little Black Dress

I can’t help it: black will always be the new black for me.  And if the dress has pockets . . . even better!  Make it fancy or casual, you can’t go wrong with the perfect accessories.

Silver Initial Ring

Even though my initials have changed I still LOVE this piece.  It was my mom’s back in the day but she gave it to me when I went off to college.  Such a great design, people don’t even realize it’s really letters!

Sharpies

I don’t care what color it is but I almost always have one with me. You never know when you’re going to need to mark something up!

Flip Flops

I’d walk around barefoot if it was socially acceptable (but I think it’s frowned upon) – so flip flops are the next best thing.  If I were writing this list 10 years ago I would definitely have said my Birkenstocks haha!

My MacBook Everything Apple 

Being on the go all the time is so much easier when I can access all of my work/personal information from my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook.  Not to sound like a commercial or anything . . . but I would be lost without them!

Crab Key Chain 

Being a Baltimore transplant I quickly became obsessed with this little crustacean. My sister bought me the keychain before she and my brother-in-law moved to Florida, so it reminds me of them but it also makes me feel like Baltimore really is my home.

Thanks for sharing your must-haves, Ashley!  Look out for Katey’s Essentials next week, and have a fabulous weekend!
