Everybody Needs 'Em
To be a true Southerner, you should own a few specific items. Whether you inherit it or buy it in famed High Point, North Carolina, you must have at least one to-die-for piece of heirloom furniture. In the kitchen, you need a seasoned cast-iron skillet. And in the backyard or on the front porch, we’d recommend a Pawleys Island Rope Hammock. For the most distinctive regional item, though, get fitted for cowboy boots from ML Leddy’s in Fort Worth. What? You expect to be taken seriously wearing a pair of pumps or wing tips?
