PROFESSION: I’ve loved owning and operating

atmosphere. In April of 2021 we expanded our passion into
the Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta with the help of our
former Athens stylist Shelbi Watts. Opening this second location
has been a wonderful extension of Cheeky! Shelbi has done a
beautiful job of keeping the vision and obsession with styling
aligned in Atlanta.

Inspo:
BOOK: I love to read and I’m
trying to pass my passion
to my kiddos. I just finished
reading them Where the
Mountain Meets the Moon by
Grace Lin, it’s a beautiful story
I recommend to children and
adults alike. (1)
MAGAZINE: I take 10-15 fashion
magazines. It’s hard to pick a fav! W
Magazine is really artfully curated, I also
love Architectural Digest, and Bon Appétit.
INSTAGRAM: I’ve been making a concerted effort to use
instagram less, and more exclusively for work purposes -
so @cheekypeach (shameless plug!) (2)
BRAND: Dolce Vita shoes are my weakness. You
can’t get better design, quality, and comfort for
the price. (3)
FASHION DESIGNER: Celine! The perfect
combination of sexy rock & roll while
incorporating classic themes, and a
southwestern flair.
INTERIOR DESIGNER: Beata Heuman - her
