Welcome to Abbey Kay — a place to be filled with encouragement through real life struggles, a source to ethical fashion & trendy finds, & a guide to my life in Reno, NV.

A few things about me: I desperately want others to know they are seen, heard, & not alone. I believe you should love your body at every stage in life. I think finding a balance in everything you do is more important than striving for perfection. I will always drink black coffee & never not have black nails. I try my best to be open, honest, & real by showing up for others.

Always know that life is unpredictable, but it’s still worth experiencing every up & down it has to offer.

I’m so glad you’re here & can’t wait to connect!

  • dots on legs

    So a few weeks ago I bought these awesome huge print polka dot leggings in black & white of course. I was gonna wear them with this dress I had that came in the same print, but they weren’t the same tone of white! Fashion crisis. I was so so sad. I really was. And…

  • mid-winter wishlist

    It’s almost spring guys! But not quite yet & I have been eyeing a few trends that I want to pick up before all the snow melts. I’m not gonna lie though, I snagged a few of these items already. I just couldn’t resist when I found them! So let’s just dive into these pieces…

  • red & black jack

    There’s just something about the colors red & black that make me swoon! It may be their fame from the checkers board & game pieces or something else entirely. But these two colors just look so good together! Especially in a plaid format. I bought this XXL red & black men’s flannel last year at…

  • dress to impress

    I don’t really live by a motto in life, but if I did it would be the title of this blog post! Seriously. It seems like “dress to impress” should be something you shouldn’t even have to think about! But you’d be surprised how many times I have thought to myself ‘what the freaking heck…

  • stylin since ’93

    Yesterday was one of my best friends “surprise” birthday party & it was the cutest thing ever. Me, being witty & oh so clever dressed perfectly for the occasion. Last week I bought a leather midiskirt & a varsity crop top. I knew I wanted to wear them for her party as soon as I…

  • enjoy love

    I’d love to write a huge post about love & such & how I celebrated Valetine’s day. But love comes in all shapes & forms & it shouldn’t be celebrated on one made holiday of a day. You should enjoy love every day. Today I’m surrounded by 30 of my Italian crazied family members enjoying…

  • 14 things I love

    Guys. I wore colors yesterday. Bright happy loud lovey, dovey colors!! But I only did it because today is Valentine’s day & I wanted an outfit to go with today’s love filled theme. I think I pretty much nailed it too!! Today is all about love & heart shaped things & flowers & sappy cards…

  • camo tie

    Okay. I have something to confess. I lie to you guys sometimes. I really really do. Because sometimes the outfits I post aren’t exactly what I wore for the entire day! Sometimes I throw a quick something on to tie the look all together right before I snap the picks. I’m sorry guys, I just…

  • poi: relaxed jackets

    Whenever I can’t figure out what to wear I like to head to my Pinterest account & scroll through my “outfits i want to wear” board. I pin outfits there that I want to recreate from pieces I already own in my closet. It’s basically just a quick inspiration jump start to building my outfit…

  • m is for monday

    Everybody hates Mondays & that is just a cultural truth. It means going back to work & the start of a long week & nobody likes that. I actually really like working on Mondays because I enjoy routine. The reason I hate Mondays though is because they’re usually my worst outfit days. I don’t know…
