Meet Stacie

Hello!

Let me apologize right off the bat, because this first post might be a tad longer than you’re used to reading in terms of the online world.  That said, I feel like, if you’re going to spend some time reading this fashion blog, you should probably get to know who’s behind it. 

 

My name is Stacie.  I’m a busy parent, like many of you.  When I’m not running a car pool, attending a swim meet, or chaperoning a field trip, I’m tripping over two dogs and playing the role of doting spouse to my better half.  Ah, yes, and I’m a fashion writer.

 

Sounds glamorous, doesn’t it?

 

Well, it’s not always Louis and Louboutin, but it is pretty fabulous most of the time.  I enjoy keeping my eyes peeled for trends, sales, and staples that no person’s closet should be without.  Then I write about it for clients all over the world. 

 

While I still make the occasional run to Starbucks in my bunny slippers, I basically get paid to live, breath, and die a fashionable life. Better yet, I can do it without worrying whether or not my rent-controlled apartment will soon be turned in to condos.

 

I believe that looking good makes you feel and appear more confident; I don’t think your family should have to eat leftovers for a week just so you can make it happen.  Which is why Upromise brought me on board - to share my thoughts not only on fashion and trends, but to give you a gentle push in the direction of a good deal.  With any luck, you’ll be running Saturday errands in clothes that are both fashionable and comfortable in no time.

 

My hope is that, eventually, we can all be chatting about deals with each other in the community message boards.  Inevitably, there will be a sale that you find before I do.  Just remember, it takes a village!
