Why did you name your blog Opal & Violet? Both Opal and Violet are names of two of my great-aunts! I loved the flow of their names together and a little family love made it feel just right.
Why did you start your blog? After graduating from college, I was searching for a hobby to fill that void of being busy everysecondofeveryday and I knew that creating my own space for my fashion obsession would be the perfect outlet. A few years went by where I would constantly think of content to blog about but I was just too afraid of the commitment. Finally, after a ton of encouragement from my husband and inspiration from my college pal Kristin, I just went for it! Boy am I so glad that I did!
How old are you? I'm 31! My birthday is November 27th if you'd like to send a gift! ;)
Where do you live? I was born and raised in Kentucky but I have been living in NYC since September 2013. Saying that I love it here is definitely an understatement!
Where do you work? I am the Assistant Store Manager at Birchbox!

So, you're married? I sure am! My husband, Tyler, and I were married on April 10th 2010. It's such a blessing to get to spend each day with my best friend.

Who takes your outfit photos? My husband is my current photographer but I've had a lot of friends help me out in the past. I always give photo credits in my posts so you can reference each post individually.
What kind of camera do you use? I use my Sony Nex-5N (with this lens) and I LOVE it! Thanks to my sweet in-laws Mike & Cheryl who bought it for me! :)
Who are your biggest fashion influences? Rachel Zoe, Emma Stone, Jenna Lyons... I could go on for days. You can get a better idea of my style aesthetic by checking out this Pinterest board.
How do you curl your hair? I give all credit to this tutorial from MakeupByTiffanyD!

Where do you shop? I wear a lot of pieces from Anthropologie, J.Crew, H&M & Rent the Ruwnay but I will buy items at any store and from any department (yes, even the grandma section!). I don't think you have to spend a lot of money to look great. There is nothing better than mixing high end basics (that will last you forever!) with lower quality, trendy pieces (that will last until the trend ends).
Can I ask you more questions? Absolutely! Email me anytime! opalandviolet@gmail.com
