Kentucky Does Indeed Kick Ass!

(Sportin' a Kentucky for Kentucky Tee)

Fate led me to Morris Bookstore the other day where I found a fresh abundance of Kentucky for Kentucky shirts. I literally clapped my hands and twirled in true delight. I had been on the hunt for Kentucky for Kentucky apparel, especially the extremely popular, “Y’ALL” shirt, which I wanted for a sister’s birthday and frankly, for myself. My weekend just got made when I spotted them hanging out nonchalantly at Morris.

“Hey, y’all,” I purred and went on to treat myself to several purchases - all of which I justify because the money goes to local enterprise.

I jazzed up my Sunday by wearing my new tee: it features a white sketch of Kentucky with its 120 kick ass counties and an inscription reading, “A Kick Ass Commonwealth Since 1792.” Paired my kick ass shirt with jeans, boots and a long cream cardigan and felt Bluegrass proud and chic.

Honestly, I am feeling the love for my home state. There is so much beauty here, in the rolling hills, in the art and poetry from Appalachia, in the blossoming vibrancy of Lexington. I’m excited to be here, in this city and colorful community with passionate people who want Lexington to rise and meet its full creative and entrepreneurial potential. I’m incredibly grateful for the Kentucky for Kentucky crew for truly owning and confidently defining Kentucky’s unique kick ass coolness, and also, for designing some hip shirts along the way. I’ll be wearing and saying my y’all with great pride.
