Southern people are characters. This site is celebrating Southern people rising to the top of their professions. But still keeping their southern roots. We profile Southern artists, musicians, lawyers and photographers. Also, we celebrate chefs, celebrities, fashion designers, interior designers, stylists, curators and more. This region was built on Southerns and their charm. We are bringing them to the forefront.
Southerners and their culture have brought so much to the United States and the world. This is the place where we can be both high-brow and down home. We are lifting up their accomplishments here. This is a truly authentic place where Southerners can see themselves as well-rounded individuals.
Whether you’re from Charleston, Atlanta, Nashville or Birmingham, we want to hear your stories. If you are from below the Mason Dixon line and live in South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana or North Carolina, we want to hear stories of your life.

Christy Plott Redd is a Southern girl. She is the creative director, head of global sales, and co-owner of American Tanning and Leather. I’ll let her tell you what that’s all about below. Let’s just say she’s a red-headed spitfire who knows her way around a gator farm in Louisiana, as well as the corporate offices of Oscar de La Renta, Ralph Lauren and other hoity-toity fashion designers who buy up her alligator skins like hot cakes. She is as Two-Sided Southern as they come and one of the funniest, most charming people I know. Read below and you’ll soon agree.
