FAQ

Where are you from?

I was born and raised in Seattle, WA. Yes, I really was born there – one of the few it seems these days! I have traveled quite a bit but still live here to this day and not so sure I could ever leave! #pnwgirlforlife

Where do you currently live?

We recently moved from Seattle, WA to Northern New Jersey. I still can’t believe this west coast girl is now living on the east coast! Follow along the journey at #carlenetakesnyc!

What breed is your puppy?

Millie @absolutelyamillie is an adopted minpin + pug mix and the light of our lives! She is SO spoiled but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

What camera/editing  do you use?

I use the Canon T5i with a Macbook Pro. I edit all my youtube videos with iMovie. I would like to pretend I have the time to sit on Final Cut Pro, but let’s be real here – I don’t! iMovie does the job juuuuuuuust fine.

How old are you?

I just recently turned 30! Not going to lie, my looks aren’t a good gage since I’m like a fine wine. I give it all up to serums and if you aren’t using them yet you need to be. I slather myself with lotions and potions on a daily basis to make sure my skin stays nice and deceiving – I plan on looking 27 forever.

What is your “day job”?

I currently am in retail management in the beauty industry and I absolutely LOVE what I do! I know alot of people blog full time, but not sure I could ever do that and leave my job because I am so passionate about it! “Love what you do and you’ll never work a day in your life” is so, so true.
