Today’s fashionable friend Friday is uber stylish lifestyle blogger Elizabeth Moyer of Pretty Pink Tulips. On Tuesday, she hosted a luncheon for 150 guests to listen to Style Guru, Eddie Ross discuss and sign his new book Modern Mix. Like, everything Elizabeth does, the afternoon was wonderfully elegant and chic, not to mention how oh so informative Eddie was about the best flea market finds to setting the perfect holiday table. If you have not checked out Elizabeth’s blog, you must, it is brilliant. I am so lucky to be able to sit down with Elizabeth on Oct 30 on my radio show and discuss all things entertaining! Bon Weekend!
