THIS IS my

story

Candace M. Read is a lifestyle atelier built on the belief that living a well-fashioned life is not only how you dress for your day, but also how you sustain your soul.

 
 
 

I’M CANDACE

 

From completing a year-long internship with the New York City Ballet to earning my M.A. in Fashion and Luxury Management at Savannah College of Art and Design, self-expression from the inside out is deep in my DNA.

I believe that every woman is worthy of living a well-fashioned life -- thoughtfully collecting beautiful things and curating meaningful moments that empower her to express her authentic voice and leave her own mark on the world around her. You, dear reader, are worthy of a well-fashioned life.

This alchemy of outward expression and inward reflection is pure magic. Whether it’s inspiring your #LOTD, bringing you a fresh idea for an evening beverage on the viral series #MocktailMonday, or expanding your mindset with a change of scenery or a new way of thinking, my desire is to encourage you to elevate your every day – to live both as a masterpiece just as you are, and a work-in-progress toward who you want to become.

– Candace
