    Jac.

    After I stepped into Jac, an adorable and uber-stylish boutique in Inman Park, I instantly turned into an unofficial Jac Junkie. Owner Jaci Effron scores hard-to-find lines and supports an array of independent designers that cannot be found anywhere else in Atlanta - seriously. The charming space, reminiscent of a boutique you might stumble upon in Brooklyn, N.Y., is only complimented by Effron’s diverse and ever-changing selection of shoes and accessories, unique gift items and clothes. With prices ranging from about $20 to $500, Jac is a must-stop-shop for anyone who adores fashion. Make sure to check out Jac’s blog to find out about new arrivals, sales and events.

    Cafe Physique

    Before I started working w. Cafe Physique, I got my cardio from shopping and doing 12 oz. curls. Terribly pathetic, I know. I have an extremely busy work schedule and I have to attend events regularly in the evening, so I had a very difficult time fitting exercise into my schedule. I also can't stand going to the gym b/c I am beyond germaphobic and allergic to florescent lights and annoying people in spandex - so really had no desire to make an effort. I also never found a trainer that took the time to understand my lifestyle and develop a realistic program for me. I am simply beyond happy with my results since working out with Cafe Physique so far. I had no idea how much a difference it would make having a trainer show up at my loft twice a week - saving me tons of time compared to if I had to drive back and forth to a gym. I have no excuse now and I feel great! I love the one-on-one attention and I often invite a friend to work out with me. I am handling stress much better and feel stronger and more balanced. I am actually addicted to working out now (well, on some days).
