If there is one thing that is for certain it’s that a heck of a lot of us are now finding ourselves in a new “work from home” routine that many of us may not be used to. Fortunately [or not fortunately, you can decide] I consider to be an expert in this field as…

Come Inside: Our New LIY Headquarters
Step inside, we’ve got an office to reveal. If you’ve been following for any length of time you may have seen this past July when we decided to turn a barn that was on our property into the new LIY Headquarters [known as #LIYHQ on Instagram]. Over the past two years I made the decision…
A Peek Inside the LIY Team Offices
Welcome, welcome, WELCOME! Please step into our offices and make yourself at home.

Under Construction: The New LIY HQ
Disclosure: Thank you to Facebook Marketplace and ShopStyle for sponsoring today’s post. All products featured were selected, purchased, and used by yours truly!

On Pursuing Your Passions [Or Something Like That]

Have you ever asked yourself what are you truly passionate about? It can actually an uncomfortable and awkward question to ask…
Team LIY // Meet The Ladies Behind The Brand
With so many new faces around here [both you the audience and here with the team] we thought it would be fun to formally introduce to you the ladies who we call Team LIY. It is absolutely crazy to me to think that up until just one year ago on January 1, 2017, it was…
The Pros and Cons Of Living Your Life Online
I’ve been wanting to write this post for awhile now as different thoughts have been swirling around my head about this whole “living your life online” thing. I have officially been blogging full-time for over 4 months now [although if we’re being honest, the past six years have felt pretty full time themselves]. I think…
Life So Far As a Full-Time Blogger
I am officially four weeks into this whole working for myself thing and a question a lot of people have been asking is “so how is it??!” Well, it’s everything really. Has it been all rainbows? No. Has it felt like the best thing ever occasionally? Absolutely. Has it been a hard transition? To put…
