The year was 2015, ripped skinny jeans and blanket scarves were in no short supply, and I had just graduated college with a marketing degree in hand from Indiana University. I was just two months into my first real job when I quickly realized I needed some sort of creative outlet. I’ve always had a love for fashion & beauty and growing up, my friends would constantly come to me if they needed to borrow clothes or if they wanted me to curl their hair or do their makeup for a school dance. I loved being a resource for them and I thought it would be so fun to share those things on a larger scale!
I put my “what will people think of me” aside and started sharing more of my life on social media and my blog. I was posting more of my daily outfits, hair tips, beauty favorites, recipes, and although there weren’t many eyes on what I was posting, it felt so fun to document all of m y favorite things. As time went on, my audience grew and I was getting noticed by the brands that I was sharing. After 3 years of daily posting, I was able to turn this side hustle into my full time job and I’ve been doing it ever since!
I truly love what I do and nothing makes me happier than hearing from one of you when I’ve inspired a new hair style or outfit choice! The past 9 years of blogging has been such a fun, wild ride and I’m just so thankful that I get to share what I love and work with so many amazing brands along the way!
I'm a christian and I truly believe that in the big scheme of things, none of this stuff really matters. The hair, the makeup, the clothes... it’s fun and frivolous, but doesn’t make us happier or more complete.
I hope you NEVER feel like you have to purchase anything I’m sharing or that you need these things to make you happy. It’s a balance and while it's important to not get caught up in all this material "stuff”, it’s also fun to try new things and enjoy the little things in life. I hope that this blog inspires you to try something new and gives you the confidence to look and feel your best.
Thanks so much for being here!!!
