Growing up in Sacramento, all I wanted to do was get out of this town. As an angsty teenager, this suburbia where everyone knows everyone was just not my jam. It wasn't until moving Downtown this past year that I gained a new appreciation for my hometown.

*Disclaimer* This is in no way a couple shaming or anti-valentine's day blog post. I actually adore Valentine's Day. Even though we all know it is a total greeting card holiday, it's also a little reminder to show love to the people you care about most and what could be so wrong with that?

My mom said it best when she said, “Kathleen, what I love about you is that you can see the beauty and potential in anything.” With rickety doors and windows, old vinyl flooring and absolutely no amenities; my apartment was nothing to get excited over.

If there is one thing I have always taken pride in, it's my ability to gift the perfect present. Not to brag or anything, but I've made my Dad tear up 3 years in a row from my thoughtful surprises. I get such a fulfillment from finding that special something for the ones I love, so I'm sharing those ideas with each of you!
Hello friends! It's been quite a while since I have sat down and written a blog post, created a YouTube video or worked on any sort of medium that once provided me with so much inspiration. I started Kathleen's Closet years ago as a way to express myself in the ways that words could not. I was quite shy, but I had a passionate creativity that co...
I have been on a thrifting kick lately. Even though it's still winter, I had to go shop for some adorable vintage dresses. I also found some home decor accessories for my new place. Hope you all enjoy!
