Unless you have been living under a rock for the last year, I'm sure you're heard of Twine & Twig ;) These Southern made necklaces are sweeping the country. I found them on Instagram right when the line launched. I remember they were being sold in Charleston, and I was very tempted to get in the car and drive up there!
Read MoreLook of the Week: Elise Baumann
Elise Baumann joined Beacham & Company right around the time I started this blog (5 years ago). I knew we were going to be friends as soon as we met. She has the biggest smile and infectious laugh, and I just loved her immediately. She's been reading this blog since the first post, and I can say without a doubt she's its biggest fan. In a lot of ways blogging is a very lonely process - just you and a computer. You think and agonize over posts, and then once you hit publish you don't hear anything. Elise always read. She always went out of her way to come by and encourage me and tell me I was doing a good job. If it weren't for Elise I would have quit at some point in the last 5 years, but knowing she liked what I was writing was always enough to make me think it was worth doing. I recently started reading The Artist's Way, and there is a section in there where you think of the people who encourage you the most in pursuing your passions, and Elise was the first person I thought about.
Read MoreLook of the Week: Janey Lowe
I have the pleasure of working with some of the best dressed and stylish women in Atlanta! Walking through Beacham & Company on a typical day you see perfectly put together women in magazine ready outfits It's slightly intimidating, but I like to think we are all inspired by each other. I know they all inspire me!
In this new series I will take a look at one agent's "look of the week" and pick their brains on their favorite places to shop around Atlanta!
Up first is Janey Lowe. Janey has been in real estate for 27 years and is one of the best agents in the city. She lives and works in Garden Hills but sells homes throughout Atlanta. Clients love working with Janey because of her attitude, enthusiasm and unmatched knowledge. Janey joined Beacham & Company in June of 2008 as one of our first agents. She works with her daughter, Elise, and her son-in-law Kyle Baumann. Janey has been number one the last 4 years at Beacham, and with nearly $50 million in sales for 2014, and she and her team (The Lowe Baumann Group) look to be number 1 again!
Janey is a true professional, but she also loves to have fun. All three of her daughters graduated from the University of Colorado in Boulder. Nothing makes Janey happier than taking ski trips out West with her family. She stays in shape with pilates and frequent walks with her dog, Blue.
Janey is such a light around the office and is often nominated for speeches at company events. All the agents look up to Janey for her professionalism, ability to be a great team player, and of course her impeccable style.
