Welcome Besties, Beauties, and Badasses!
This site is all about leveling up your Life(styling).
I like to think of RTFR Mag as your emotional support blog, and I’m your vibe curator.
Life, Home, and Fashion (styling) posts are all about reminding us of the very simple aspects of reclaiming your own style and choosen desired expression. To me this is the very basis of HAPPINESS. When your able to own and curate what makes you feel good, versus what the status quo is reflecting back as the current look and feel.

Life, Home, and Fashion (styling) are all about reflecting to the world, that you own your style, space, and your stuff. They represent your soul’s desire and expression, but also the uniqueness of who you are. These expressions are very important to uncover and amplify to the world or at least to yourself!
