Amy Lemley Bailey is another amazing Huntsville native that I have had the pleasure to interview. She has been fashion and style conscious since a very early age and was hugely influenced by her grandmother. While she attended college Montevallo and did an internship at Southern Living post graduation, she quickly found herself living and working in New York City. Ultimately, she returned to her beloved Alabama and you will hear her amazing journey in following her dreams and passion of honing her craft as a style expert, travel writer, gardener, and recipe creator. Amy is the owner of City Lifestyle Huntsville, which is proudly focused on delivering a monthly magazine serving as a one-stop-shop for hyper local, expertly created content for you that inspires and connects the community. You will love this episode as we will tour both the hard copy and digital version of City Lifestyle’s first issue for FEB 2023.
