Today in Us Noticing Them Noticing Us: Glamour Comes to Town

Posted by Steve Haruch on Thu, Jan 19, 2012 at 3:15 PM

Well, it would seem that yesterday, while we were all talking about The Black Keys' Dan Auerbach talking about his favorite local eats with Bon Appetit, we managed to gloss over Glamour editor Rachael Wang's own love letter to Nashville, which starts thusly:

A couple weeks ago I visited Tennessee's capital city for a quick photo shoot—make sure to check it out in Glamour's upcoming March issue! Nashville has perfected the balance between music, style, and Southern charm. After 36 hours in Music City, I was smitten.

Glamour being ostensibly a fashion magazine and all, it's not surprising that Imogene + Willie ("the much-talked-about denim specialists") and Goodbuy Girls ("an amazing vintage selection" of cowboy boots) get some well-deserved attention. But our food gets some mention, too, including Jack's, Las Paletas and the one place every single out-of-town outlet seems to make a point of visiting — be they Nylon, Rolling Stone, Travel + Leisure or the aforementioned Bon Appetit — Mas Tacos, the East Nashville taqueria. (Side note: I love that Wang refers to East Nashville as the "East End.")

Are we becoming known as a taco-and-denim town? A vintage-boots-and-barbecue town? A kombucha-and-chocolate town? Guess we'll just wait until March to see how this shoot turned out.

What?! They didn't go to Prince's? How can they call it an authentic parachute visit?
