Well… this is a post I’ve been putting off writing because I honestly didn’t know how to put my feelings into words.
After a lot of thought, I’ve decided that it’s time for me to officially resign from Paparazzi. As of September 28th, I am no longer a Paparazzi consultant.
Before I say anything else, I want everyone to know that this decision has absolutely nothing to do with Paparazzi. I have so much love and respect for this company, the founders, and everything this opportunity has given me over the last six and a half years. If I could go back and do it all over again, I absolutely would. 🩷
Paparazzi has given me so much more than jewelry. It gave me confidence when I didn’t have much. It taught me how to run a business, connect with people, better serve customers, and believe in myself. It challenged me, helped me grow, and introduced me to people who will always have a special place in my heart. Some of you started as customers and became genuine friends, and that’s something I’ll always be grateful for.
The truth is… life looks a lot different than it did six and a half years ago.
When I started this journey, my business was my full-time focus. Having a large inventory and spending countless hours running my business made perfect sense then.
Today, I have a full-time job. Xander and I are married now, and we’re hoping to start a family in the near future. My priorities have naturally shifted, and I’ve realized I want a business that fits this season of life. I don’t want to spend so much of my free time managing inventory or being tied to a business that requires so much behind-the-scenes work. I want more balance, more flexibility, and more time to enjoy life with my husband and our future family. 🧑🧑🧒🧒
That doesn’t mean I’m stepping away from owning a business. It just means my business is evolving alongside me.
I’m genuinely excited for what’s ahead, and I hope you’ll be excited with me.
Finally, thank you.
Thank you for every order, every live sale you watched, every comment, every share, every message, and every bit of encouragement over the last six and a half years. Thank you for supporting my dream and allowing me to build something I’m incredibly proud of. Whether you’ve been with me since the beginning or just recently found my page, you’ve been a part of this journey, and I’ll never take that for granted.
Closing this chapter is bittersweet because it’s been such a big part of my life for so long. But I’m also incredibly excited for what’s next. Sometimes life changes, priorities shift, and we realize it’s okay for our businesses to grow and change with us.
I hope you’ll continue this next chapter with me. I can’t wait to show you everything I’ve been working on. 🫶🏼

Over the next few months, I will be selling my Paparazzi inventory at a discounted price. I will start by bringing everything down to $5.
Starting in 2027, you’ll start seeing my business rebrand into something new. I’ll still have jewelry (because I’ll always love accessories), but I’ll also be offering clothing, sleepwear, hats, hair accessories, keychains and bag charms, and so much more. As my boutique grows, I hope to expand into shoes, purses, wallets, candles, tumblers, blankets, stationery, makeup, perfume, and other fun finds. ✨
