Welcome to The Lovely Lo Down’s new and improved website! I am so excited about the new direction and plans that I have for The Lovely Lo Down. First and foremost, I wanted to thank those of you who are reading this post. I know there are SO many similar websites and blogs out there, so I appreciate you taking the time to visit mine!
I started The Lovely Lo Down during a time in my life when I was having a lot of anxiety about what I wanted to do with my life and what the future held for me. I went on for about a month letting those pesky thoughts take over my life. Finally, one day, with a hand from my amazing sisters and incredible fiancé, I decided that sitting and feeling anxious about it wasn’t gong to give me answers. So, I started to write about things that made me happy.
I started the Lovely Lo Down to help me find time in my day to focus on fun, positive things I love and to share tips and tricks I was learning that helped me manage the incredibly stressful, pressure filled world we live in. While I still have my fair share of anxiety attacks, days that I cry for no reason, stressful moments, etc I’ve gotten so much better at seeing the brighter side of life thanks to The Lovely Lo Down and a few special people in my life.
I started out by posting what I know and love best, fashion. However, my intention was always to make The Lovely Lo Down into something so much more than that! While I am the farthest thing from an expert on living a lovely life, I am determined to find all the things that might help make life a little “lovelier”.
According to the dictionary, the word “Lovely” means “delightful for beauty, harmony, or grace.” My goal is to make The Lovely Lo Down a place that you come to help find beauty, harmony or grace in situations that make life crazy and chaotic. Whether it be tips on how to organize your pantry, comfortable outfits, a quick and easy make up routine when you wake up 20 minutes before a meeting starts or ways to gain some control over the chaos of life, I hope The Lovely Lo Down becomes the place you can turn to.
So increDibly happy for you Lauren! You are going to do amazing things and i cant wait to see and hear what they are!
Thank you so much!!
Lauren,
Reading this made my heart happy. I’ve followed you for a while (a fellow midwesterner – I used to live in the Chi burbs) and I love this other side you’ve let us in on. I too struggle with some of the things you mentioned and love you opened up about it 🙂
Thinking of you and ready and excited for the next chapters for you!
