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!

    Lately, I’ve been feeling like I’ve been going unnoticed. I have this heavy thought that everything I’m doing or saying has been unseen, unheard, & therefore unimportant. When ideas like these start to sprout up in my head it makes me not want to even continue on my creative endeavors. I’m telling you this because…

    Happy Monday! Let’s dive right into the encouragement I feel needs to be expressed today, because today, I’m feeling a sense of loss in what true support & encouragement means. We as women are sometimes the worst when it comes to truly supporting one another. We say we support one another, but there still is…

    We sat down at a local coffee shop & started talking about Instagram & the look of your feed & aesthetic, & about how you have to just make things happen to get where you want to in life. We sipped our iced drinks & complimented each other about all things each of us were…

    Product of the week: Seriously been in love with the Drifter beanie from Krochet Kids this week. Probably because it’s been a grey filled week & snowed so much last night! Deals of the week: I went to Macy’s week & they had a random 30% off sale, & I scored four Free People items for less than $150!…

    What does success mean to you? At what point in your life or career will you feel like you’ve “made it”? When will that feeling of being enough finally actually be enough? What is the one dream that seems unreachable, but is still the end goal for your journey? Simply put, how do you define…

    Two Sundays ago I was lucky enough to participate in a styled photoshoot with a BUNCH of local Reno businesses & babes. There were so many great vendors involved & it was such a great time getting to meet & reconnect with so many ladies in the local creative community. I seriously love being in styled…

    Confidence. It’s hard to come by sometimes, am I right? It’s hard to feel like you’re truly doing your best, or even doing something worth while. It’s hard to know if you’re doing what you’re supposed to be doing in life, or if you’re living the way you are destined to be living. When times…

    I’ll be the one to say it… Being a girl is hard. Owning your own business is hard. Trying to be confident in who you are, & what you want to accomplish is hard. There are so many things that get in the way of us as people trying to live the best lives that…
