Come on in and get comfy.
I want this to feel like a good old-fashioned slumber party. Come on in, take your shoes off. Put on your coziest pajamas and let’s watch our favorite episodes of Buffy. I went to Costco and got the good chips and dip, and tomorrow morning we’re having waffles. Tell me all your secrets and I’ll tell you mine. Let’s braid each other’s hair and talk about boys. Or girls. Or dogs. Or the crippling feeling that maybe this is all there is.
In more concrete terms, this is a weekly blog that consists of curated recommendations and careful musings on culture, lifestyle, books, and style. Here you’ll find resources & inspiration to romanticize your everyday life – because as my patron saint Joan Didion once said, every day is all there is.
Editorial Schedule
Coffee Break – Free
Each Sunday I send out the Coffee Break email, a weekly dispatch chock full of things to read, eat, ponder, and experience with your morning coffee. Think playlists, moodboards, menus, link roundups, reading lists, and more.
Book Posts – Free
Every Wednesday, free subscribers will receive a book post, which could include a curated reading list, updates and reviews on what I’ve read lately, new releases I’m looking forward to, or any other bookish content.
The Well-Designed Life – Paid
The Well-Designed Life is a framework for designing a life that actually fits YOU – not the person you think you should be, not someone else’s aesthetic, but the life that makes you feel most like yourself. Every Friday, paid subscribers will receive a new post with practical exercises to work through.
About the Author
I’m Lizzie Campbell – corgi mom, voracious reader, interior design enthusiast, recovering lifestyle blogger, and a pleasure to have in class. By trade I’m a graphic designer, but I’ve been a writer at heart since I first learned how to hold a pencil.
In 2013, I was a burnt-out college freshman with undiagnosed ADHD and a journalism major I picked at random because Rory Gilmore made it sound cool. I started a blog one night on a whim, sitting on the floor of my dorm room eating leftover pizza and watching Doctor Who.
That blog turned into a side-job that helped pay for college classes and rent, then my first and second full-time jobs, then eventually into my own creative studio and business. You can read the full story here.
I’ve been an observer, curator and casual archivist of the world around me for as long as I can remember. Around 2005-ish, the world around me turned into the world wide web, and I’ve been online ever since. I’m the recommender of the friend group, the one who’s always excited to tell you about a book that you would absolutely love or my new favorite lipstick that lasts all day. I want this blog to be like grabbing coffee with a friend – chatty, friendly, fun, and fulfilling.
