Just a small town girl from East Tennessee who loves the way a new outfit or shade of lipstick can change your world. Lacey's married to an amazing man who the best insta-husband a girl could ask for. She has two dogs, Lemon the goldendoodle and Rosey who is a Frenchton (French Bulldog/ Boston Terrier Mix). She graduated from East Tennessee State University with a Degree in Fashion Merchandising and Marketing; so The Glitter Gospel has allowed her to find a way to not only put her degree to use, but do what she's most passionate about.  You will usually find her plugging away at work, scoping out new playlists on Apple Music, snuggling with her pups, and perusing for new items to share online!  The Glitter Gospel started in 2013 in hopes to create a community of women who could find a deeper love for themselves. Lacey truly believes that a tube of lipstick or a new pair of shoes can help change your world and teach you more about who you are. She's a prime example. This space isn't just about her, it's about you; the audience! She has made so many wonderful connections through blogging with both her readers and other bloggers. In a world where it often feels so lonely, this space brings women together to talk about the things we all love, but also to speak our truths and get beneath the glitter.  She's had a love for fashion since she was a little girl. It's been noted that on any given day she could grace you with 4+ outfits and then require that every single one be cleaned afterward. Fashion was her escape.  Blogging continues to be a journey. She's grown so much and loves being able to go back and see what she's accomplished as a fashion blogger. Lacey says she's been lucky enough to partner with some amazing brands, She's made wonderful friendships, gained an Instagram husband, and found a serious love for photography. She loves being a blogger and wouldn't trade it for the world. This is her life beneath the glitter!!

What’s up friends!! 

Today we're talking with Austin Angel! Since Austin was 14 years old he had the dream of being a landscape photographer & go to all kinds of places & take landscape pictures. But his plan changed quickly! When he got a camera for Christmas his best friend asked him to take some fun pictures of her, so he did! The pictures got many likes & comments so he decided to create AAA Photography back in 2015. A lot has changed since then! It is now 2021. Austin Angel Photography & Films now have over 2,000 likes on all social media platforms. In 2019 he received the Knoxville 20 under 20 award sponsored by LMU. This award recognizes 20 entrepreneurs all over Knoxville under the age of 20. He has been so blessed to be able to capture so many beautiful memories over the last 5 years!

Simplify Style wholeheartedly believes in designing the life you love & that process begins in your home. Our focus is to find balance in the edit and functionality, while enriching the purpose of your space through thoughtful design. We work together to establish habits that minimize frustration and maximize connection.  When Amanda Parise was first navigating life as a single mother of three over a decade ago, she could not have pictured the life she lives today: leading people to freedom over stress and anxiety in their homes. ‍ “I wholeheartedly believe in designing the life you love,” Parise says. “That process begins in the home.” ‍ Before launching Simplify Style, Parise was a single mother of three in a small apartment in Pensacola, Florida. She experienced the benefits of home organization herself after a friend helped her transform the space to be welcoming and functional for her family. Before long, she discovered she also had a natural talent for creating beautiful, functional spaces. ‍ In 2016, Parise started Simplify in Raleigh, North Carolina. She spent years developing the relationships and skills she needed to develop a business that could fully serve the needs of her clients in deeper, more thoughtful ways. ‍ Today, Parise is based out of Knoxville, Tennessee, where her team consists of both an editor, who cuts back and refines the spaces where they work, and a stylist, who makes suggestions on how to enrich and influence the space based on the personalities of each family member or client. Parise focuses heavily on coaching to establish new habits, like morning and evening routines. “That builds a foundation to solidify long-term success of their investment,” she says. ‍ “Ultimately, we care deeply about there being a 'Before Simplify' and an 'After Simplify' - so our clients truly feel like the best versions of themselves after inviting us into their homes.”
