“Give me a kiss to build a dream upon.” – Louis Armstrong

About moi? Well, as a starting point, I am a thirty-something Georgia native with simple approach to style—it shouldn’t break the bank. That’s a bit of what Stephxoxosmooch is about—chic, fun, quality pieces at prices that don’t leave you wondering how to pay the bills. Toss in a bit of home décor, my favorite recipes, beauty tips and a dash of inspiration to help me (and hopefully you) stay leveled—that’s Stephxoxosmooch.com!

As for me, I’m a middle child in a family of five—wedged between two fab sisters and anchored by storybook parents. I’ve maintained a 13-year career in Marketing in the Atlanta , which along with blowing my mind occasionally takes me to pretty cool places. A total burbs chick, I’m a puppy mom to two yorkies, GiGi and Nino (who I am sure will make an appearance or two here). Within my roles as a sister, friend, professional woman, and puppy-mom—I’m a purveyor of frugal fashion.

I’m sealing my best style secrets with a kiss and sharing them with you! I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us! Along the way, I vow to honor these few promises:

I will never point you in the direction of a retailer I’ve never patronized. I only vouch for companies I’ve shopped and had great experiences with.
I will always share an alternative option for a piece I am wearing if the item is currently unavailable.
I will always try to share pieces at $100 or less—it’s the way I shop and I want you to keep the ‘wealth’ in the bank too!
I barely (as in almost never because it takes a lot of work and I don’t have time anyhow) Photoshop. My body isn’t perfect, but that’s why I love it. I honor this size 10 frame, size 10 feet, sensitive skin, any and all cow licks with authenticity in my posts!
You get my honest feedback. If something runs small, if a recipe didn’t work well… if a project was a bit difficult—I won’t hold back. It’s tell-all over here and I want you to expect nothing less!
I’ll keep it fun and post as often as my life allows!
