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!

    The week before last I was invited to come & workout at Pure Barre here in Reno by local owner Micah Kraemer. I had heard of the workout center before & knew it involved a ballet bar, but other than that I honestly had no clue what kind of exercise it involved. I will admit that I…

    It snowed a few inches in Reno last night so I’ve been enjoying a slow morning of sipping coffee by the fire & staring at my back yard. What makes the snowfall so peaceful? I mean, I’m just like everybody else & I don’t like driving in it. But when it’s just snowed & you’re…

    Happy snowy Reno Monday, guys! I’m so happy to see the valley covered in just a dusting of white. It finally feels like winter, except this bone chilling feeling that I currently have makes me regret not appreciating the 60 degree weather from last week. How was your weekend though? I had a not so…

Restaurant of the week: I checked out Noble Pie Parlor this week when I had a meeting, and omg, the pizza was so good! The crust was my favorite. But let’s be real, the…

    The Olympics start in a few days & I am SO excited. The Olympics came to Squaw Valley, California, about 45 minutes from my hometown in Reno, back in 1960 for the Winter Games, & we have the Olympic torch & rings on display there as proof. I’ve always loved watching the Olympics during the…
