I am a new mom and most recently a stay-at-home mom. After working 10 years in the fashion industry, I have decided to trade in my 9-5 job to raise our new bundle of joy. I am passionate about all things creative and unique. My goal is to bring you the best in things for your baby, your home and your everyday life.
