The Refined Woman has come a long way in the past four years.  We started as a style blog with a Tumblr site, and have grown into an online magazine that features our own journeys, along with the stories of powerful, inspiring women.

There have been personal changes as well… Em became a mom, battled with postpartum anxiety, and is now chasing around a toddler. 

I left Southern California to chase my dreams in the Big Apple, fell in love, had my heart broken, and continue to take new risks.

I can confidently say that The Refined Woman would not exist without the incredible community of women who have supported, challenged, and collaborated with us. They have become our tribe, and if we closed shop today I would walk away with forever friends who have deeply impacted my life. It is a high honor.

One of the brands we get to create with are the talented ladies of Blogzilla Studio.  They design websites — including our newly updated website, which we are so in love with!  We are huge fans of their clean aesthetic and design.A few fun things we now have to offer are:

• A print shop with Em’s gorgeous calligraphy

• Event sign ups

• An easy way to sign up for our email list

We are thankful for our humble beginnings. 

Thank you, Blogzilla, for being a part of our tribe! We are so very grateful! Natalie and the Blogzilla team have been massive supporters of The Refined Woman for the past few years. And today we’re doing a GIVEAWAY with them right here for a free Blogzilla theme!

Kat + Em
