I don’t know about you, but it doesn’t take much for me to have an excuse to get dressed-up! So when I went to a 1920’s party, I was decked-out in the era from head-to-toe…including my nails. This art deco-inspired polish is a twist on the traditional French nail. Julie, my favorite manicurist, taught me how to create it. First, …

If you’re not on Snapchat, you may not be familiar with my photo-taking shenanigans (katherinechloe). I’m definitely not one of those bloggers supported by a professional, four-person team. It’s often just me, my camera, and a tripod. You snapchatters have witnessed my whole juggling act of setting up my equipment, dashing in front of my camera just as the automatic …
Lately, I’ve been doing a blog series on Travel Talk for the Seattle area. If you’d like to see the other posts, here they are. Today, I’m featuring what many have considered the #1 Seattle restaurant for decades…and it still lives up to that reputation. My mom has lived in Seattle for 28 years and wanted to have a Canlis …
There’s sunshine in the heart of me, My blood sings in the breeze; The mountains are a part of me, I’m fellow to the trees. ~Robert W. Service (1874–1958), “A Rolling Stone,” 1912 Halter top by Guess from Macy’s.
There is magic in creating something wonderful from nothing. A book comes from a blank piece of paper. A sculpture comes from a lump of clay. And a garden comes from a patch of dirt. When, as a child, I had to let go of my trampoline due to a crippling back condition, I decided to turn the space where …
Last week, I shared my experiences on a weekend getaway to the tiny town of La Conner—a no-miss for anyone interested in visiting the Emerald State. Today, I’m continuing my Washington travel theme.

Online dating can be fun and one hundred percent safe, or it can put the un-savvy in an unsafe situation. When you’re about to meet in the flesh that stranger who has been typing you messages while hiding behind the computer screen, safety precautions must be put into play. The gorgeous girl next to me in this picture is so …
With the recent Skagit Valley Tulip Festival, there has been a bevy of buzz about Washington state. When most people think of Washington, their minds go to the Seattle waterfront, Pike Place Market, and the Space Needle. And those are definitely must-sees…especially Pike Place’s Turkish Delight and their famous dessert…but I’d like to introduce you to a not-so-known destination. That …

Just one spring flower post…like just one macaroon…isn’t enough for me. And I couldn’t think of a better dress to wear amongst the blooms than one with flowers painted on it. Dress by Ted Baker from Nordstrom. A highlight of my excursion to Washington’s Tulip Valley was seeing all the families. I loved watching the little girls whose moms had dressed them …

As promised on Snapchat (katherinechloe), I’m sharing some of the tips that I learned from a beginner’s self-defense class taught by Alex Abossein, a martial arts master. But first, I’d like to thank Alex and Innerfit for putting on this event. All proceeds went to women recovering from abusive situations. Here are some of the tips that can help the …
While flipping through fashion magazines, I frequently run across articles about the perfect silhouettes to flatter various figure types. But I’ve never read about a style that looks good on everyone—especially girls who like to go to events and actually indulge in the food. I’m definitely one of those. I’ve never understood the desire of some women to wear a …
