What's In Her Bag with Blogger and Personal Stylist, Candace Read June 4, 2018 09:00
We are thrilled to feature one of our favorite fashion bloggers, Candace Read. She's always on point, has great taste (refined, practical and pulls off a finished look), gorgeous (inside and out), and fun. Her style is relatable, completely in touch with living life, wearing comfortable clothes and looking good while doing it.
I met Candace over a smoothie bowl at Zest at Easton Town Center. We chatted about her role at Wardrobe Therapy. She helps clients with personal shopping, wardrobe consulting, and closet restyling services. She brings her regular working girl style to her clients, and to readers of her blog. When not working or blogging, she's exploring Columbus with her husband.
Her bag reflects her life as a personal stylist, always on the go. Her items are functional and fun.
Candace typically carries a backpack or a satchel bag with a crossbody strap. Her soft leather backpack shown is from GiGi New York.
She's a huge fan of Neutrogena's lip color stick. She also carries Pacifica underarm wipes.
Her personalized field notes were a gift from A&F Challenge, a party hosted by Abercrombie and Fitch, benefitting a different non-profit each year.
A fabric tape measurer, Tide to-go stick, iPhone and changer, cash (for meters), pins and business cards are essential to her work as a personal stylist.
She wears her Honey Rose & K vintage Italian compass pendant. Its symbolic to her since she just did a rebranding of her blog from "Live Love & Read" to "Candace Read". She's changing her direction to reflect a "more mature, refined and a million times more confident in who I am {perks of getting older}".

We are excited that Candace is taking her Honey Rose & K with her on this exciting journey of rebranding and a new direction.

What's In Her Bag: Bray's Way Blogger, Reagan Mamer May 16, 2018 09:45
If you follow Columbus bloggers, you are more than likely following Reagan Mamer's blog, Bray's Way. We love her lifestyle blog, full of home decor inspirations (and they're affordable!), wedding planning (the lace dress she chose!), and her favorite eateries. She's one of the nicest people I've met, and truly embodies the mid-western woman: down to earth and charming.
Reagan's home is as cozy as her personality. Just wrapping up a home renovation, the kitchen is amazing and her floral bathroom is swoon-worthy. Her bichon poodle mix, Leo, captured our hearts. Look at this sweet face!!!
Reagan's bag is full of great products, both practical and fun!
Her bag is a bamboo clutch from Amazon. It's light and so fun, perfect for summer!
She carries her favorite Kate Spade wallet (it's actually the best wallet, I am on my 3rd one. You can slide your cards in without having to open it!).
Her mirror sunglasses are from Vernacular.
Her favorite hand lotion is a gift from her friend. She gifted Reagan a bride box before her wedding, full of bridal essentials. She also keeps a travel Benefit mascara with her, for those important lash touchups.
She never leaves home without her travel toothbrush and toothpaste! After each cup of coffee, she's freshening up.
She loves a delicate necklace with bold earrings, like these from Honey Rose and K. She wears black, white and gray on rotation, so these black earrings go with much of her closet.
She always keeps a treat for Leo, because he's always in tow (and how can you resist not spoiling a puppy!)
Thank you Reagan for allowing us to peek into your cute bamboo clutch! We love your style, both home and fashion!
