hi friends!
i'm Victoria
Hi friends! I’m Victoria. I am so thrilled we’ve found each other, and I’m so grateful you’ve stumbled onto my little corner of the internet. I started this platform in 2014 as a space to share my passion for fashion and food, but it has grown into something far more meaningful than I could have ever imagined.
Ever since I was younger, I’ve loved sharing my favorite finds and inspiration with others (because who doesn’t love spreading the love?). Here, you’ll discover affordable and stylish fashion, my favorite recipes, unique home decor finds (my latest obsession!), real-life stories, and so much more. This space has brought me so much joy, confidence, and fulfillment, and I hope it does the same for you.
Over the years, this platform has blossomed into a wonderful community, and I am honored to be surrounded by such an incredible group of like-minded women. My goal is for you to leave this page feeling inspired, motivated, and uplifted—maybe even with a smile on your face!
Currently, I call Philly my home (born and raised!) and love spending my days exploring the city, taking photos, shopping for the latest fashion treasures, and savoring every delicious bite Philly has to offer. Let’s connect! You can keep up with my everyday adventures on Instagram @victoria[insertusername].
Thank you SO much for being here—it truly means the world to me. Sending big hugs your way always! 💕
frequently asked questions
Click on a question on the left to see the answer!
01. WHEN AND WHY DID YOU START YOUR BLOG?
answer:
I started my blog in 2014 (feels like a lifetime ago) in college with the intention of sharing recipes with friends and family. During that time, I changed my diet & got really into healthy eating in an effort to combat stomach issues I had my entire life. I really fell in love with cooking and creating recipes and would share them to my personal IG for fun, detailing how much better I was feeling from changing my diet.
After getting a lot of questions and requests for recipes from friends/fam, I started my blog solely as a place to keep all of this in one place. Over time, I continued posting and blogging my very favorite creative outlet that I loved pouring time into. I expanded into a lifestyle blog so I could incorporate my love of fashion, decor, and everything else under the sun (along with food), and have been here ever since! While I never knew this could ever become a job when I started, I am so thankful that everything led me here.
Whether you’ve been here since the beginning, for a year or so, or just started following along: THANK YOU so much for being here. I truly mean it from the bottom of my heart. Without you, I wouldn’t be able to do this every day and I am so thankful to get to share our lives, favorite finds, best food, and all of the inspo with one another day in and day out. Sending big hugs always. XOXO, Kat.
02. WHAT CAMERA DO YOU SHOOT YOUR PHOTOS WITH?
answer:
I shoot my photos with my Canon 6d Mark II with a 16-34MM f/2.8 lens. To be totally transparent, I’ve had more expensive and “nicer” cameras in the past, but when I ended up giving this one a try, it quickly became my favorite one I’ve ever owned! It’s a great price point, really user friendly, and takes amazing photos. I would 100% recommend it. I also use my iPhone 11 Pro Max! The best camera is the camera you have. 🙂
