How to Create a Capsule Wardrobe
So what is a capsule closet? In essence, a capsule embraces quality over quantity and favors versatility — less items (thanks to those key, neutral pieces), endless options. While there’s no magic number, it’s important to hone in on the 20% of your closet you use, wear, and love, and let go of the rest. If you’re ready to say yes to more joy, peace, and abundance in your closet then you’ll want to read this post.
How I Got Into Interior Design
By far one of the most frequently asked questions I get in regards to Styled Out West is, How did you get into Interior Design? I think it’s a popular topic for many reasons.

And while I think it’s wonderful when aspiring designers come to me for support, I am by no means an expert in this field (yet) and I don’t want to give the impression that becoming a designer is easy. I’ve certainly been hit with my fair share of challenges and I’m learning new things every single day

Between the pandemic, the success of our Interior Design services and trying to raise two small kids, the blog took a major back seat.

How to Sooth a Teething Baby
There is nothing worse than seeing your baby in pain. Poor Joey is cutting all her top teeth at the same time and since she is my second, I figured it would be helpful to share the methods that have helped us the most. Starting with our favorite product (found at Safeway), Orajel™ Non-Medicated Cooling Gels for Teething. Orajel is #1 pediatrician recommended and also Benzocaine and drug free!


Moving from Seattle to Gig Harbor has been a breath of fresh air (literally). Life feels calmer, the community feels closer, and nature is right outside our doorstep. In this post, I’m sharing how the move has changed our family’s pace, how it’s inspired my design business, and why Gig Harbor, Tacoma, and the South Sound have completely stolen my heart.
