I’m Carlee and I’m the founder and Editor-In-Chief at Styled to Sparkle. I’m a writer, entrepreneur, sommelier, expert traveler, wife and dog mom. I love shopping, trying new beauty products, styling my home and traveling to interesting places. I enjoy wine and spirits, great food and travel that includes all of these things! My love of wine is why I chose to complete my WSET Level 2 Sommelier Cer

tification. I strongly believe in “classic style for the modern real girl” for all facets of life. My love of classic simplicity is reflected in my personal style, fashion and beauty choices, interior design decisions and how I travel. Trends come and go, but elegance is forever. “Always classic, seldom trendy” is a rule that I live by. I decided to add a YouTube Channel to my blog because I find that especially when it comes to travelling somewhere new, it’s nice to have an idea of what it will look like – and sometimes a photo isn’t enough. I’m always looking for new travel destinations and places to feature, so please reach out and let me know what I can see in your city!

Swipe for a front porch glow up! 🌸🌿

I love my so much that I knew I wanted to incorporate them more into my outdoor decor. The addition of the one below the window and the smaller one in the corner has added the perfect extra touch of colour!

✨ Happy Monday, Sparklers!

What’s on the agenda for this week?

13/06/2024

I feel like my house is never more organized than it is when we’re preparing for a trip. Everything is neatly laid out or put away in its place and every space is cleaned (I hate coming home to a mess). Sometimes I take this opportunity to change all the bedding, too!

What do you do before you go away?

Rise and Shine, it’s Monday!

Here’s what life looks like behind the scenes of being a small business owner and influencer: juggling trade shows, travel, meetings, content creation, product development, and everything in between. It's a whirlwind of passion, dedication, and hard work, but I wouldn't have it any other way. 💼✈️💻

🛁🫧✨ My garage sale prep included some major purging, and it offered a great opportunity to reorganize things around my house! Keep reading for my favourite bathroom storage tips!

- Use lots of drawer friendly bins to organize makeup and skincare items! My favourite are the Beauty Drawer Edit by 💄
- Maximize the space above your toilet with shelving for your bath time goodies. They typically come in pretty display jars (like the ones from ) and it keeps the edges of your tub clear!
- Put trays on your vanity for products you always reach for - this keeps them accessible without things rolling around your counter tops!
- Use hooks on the sides of your vanity to hang items for easy access without the clutter 🧖‍♀️

What would you add to this list?!

Being as busy as we are, we don’t get a chance to get to the range and shoot as much as we used to. But I have to admit that getting a rifle custom built is an amazing experience and something that everyone should try to do at least once if they can make it happen. Being able to pick and choose all of the components to meet my own wants and needs, and have it fit me and my personality exactly, right down to the chassis paint job of the Angular Hex Camo pattern was awesome.

What’s extra-fun is that I even made all of my own custom ammunition for it, which is extremely empowering and a very Zen-like process when you’re sizing the brass case, measuring powder, and seating your own bullets. Learning about all of the factors that go into making precision ammunition that is custom tailored for my rifle was fun and exciting, and I learned so much about what it takes to get the rifle to shoot as well as it does! I can’t wait to show you how ridiculously accurate this rifle shoots. Keep an eye out for some range test results in future posts!

Big thanks to Steve and Shane from EM Precision Rifles for building this wonderful rifle for me. If you need a new rifle built please reach out and they’ll get you taken care of!

Curious about my top wish from ?

It's simple - travel sizes! 🧳✈️

Personally, I find it tiresome to transfer products into portable containers. I prefer the ease of just grabbing and packing. So, what's your essential travel item? Share your thoughts using

It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since we finished L’s big girl room, and now we are working on M’s! Transitioning away from a crib with my baby has been a tough one, but I’m loving her excitement for a space she can grow with!

Do you have any of your items from growing up that your kids now use?

This globe is mine from when I was a kid - it’s been the perfect addition to our playroom, and we love looking at all of the places we are going before we travel!
