about

Congratulations!! You made it to my blog! I bet you couldn’t be more excited if you tried. This really is a good day for you. My name is Taylor, and I am so happy you are here.

Welcome to Blonde & Ambitious: Beauty, Fashion & Lifestyle. The main purpose of this blog is to help you look and feel your best, in what you wear, what makeup you put on, and how your home feels, so, ya welcome. I obviously love all things fashion and beauty, and I want to help you love them, too! Everyone should feel their best every day (plus purple lipstick is just fun, you know?). Let’s discover the best and most wearable trends together. The lifestyle side of B&A comes out in marriage advice, travel tips & tricks and healthy habits. This is a jack-of-all-trades kind of situation.

I am a 25-year-old college graduate, with a degree in Biochemistry (I know — what??). Originally, I was going to work in cosmetic chemistry, developing makeup. Back in 2015, I took a communications class and had to keep a blog. That first little web page grew into what you see here today!! I currently run Blonde & Ambitious Blog, am co-owner of The Think Big Workshop (a workshop for creatives in the St. Louis area) and also co-owner of Mobley Co. Marketing (Facebook Ad management for small businesses). My passion lies in helping people: whether it’s helping women in everyday life or helping small business owners thrive. 

I married the love of my life, Adam, on April 9th, 2016. I am the luckiest human in the entire world. He is endlessly patient, kind and funny. I definitely married up. We had our first baby, Jack Henry, on July 9th 2019 and we are absolutely in love with him! He is the sweetest little boy and we are loving watching him grow.

Adam and I are also fur parents to our sweet Isabel (a tortiseshell kitten we adopted on Valentine’s Day of 2017) and Chester (a little orange & white tom cat adopted in August 2017) and Archer (our mix breed pup adopted in September 2018). The cats are little BFFs, and I wouldn’t have it any other way  (#catladyforlife) & Archer fits in nicely and really rounds us out as a family. He’s energetic and BIG at 80lbs.

I am an avid reader, clean freak and a completely terrible cook. I have too many lipsticks and too many shoes but I think that’s okay.

I have a feeling we are going to be friends, so don’t be a stranger. Introduce yourself in the comment section below! I love hearing from my readers. I’m excited to share in this journey with you!
