BECOME YOUR OWN HEALER. STYLIST. LOVER. FRIEND.
Oh hey there boo thang! You found me. Air hug.
For spirited women who don’t believe they should play a quiet, supporting role anymore…or ever.
Letitia Elizabeth Atelier is a multidisciplinary studio founded in 2013 by yours truly focusing on environmentally conscious product, fashion, and furnishings design, and the production of resonant in-person experiences. In 2019 I decided to pay homage to my fashion blogging heyday, (I was wildly popular before “influencer” was a career choice) and launch this journal as a library of growth. As a public mirror of accountability. As a microscope pointed toward my process of becoming a made over fashion influencer. And public offering of selfcare love stories delightfully intertwined with daily humanistic explorations, musings, sartorial experiences, and endlessly diverse inspiration. As a modern polymath renaissance woman, I revel in complex ideas and elegantly evolved interpretations. I'd be remiss to mention that as it were, not everyone is seeking enlightenment, purposeful meaning, or cultivating their inner awareness. That’s not me. This space is for the rest of us. And golly gee, what would you know, there is more we can do together than apart. So here I am. And here you are. Welcome!
Let it be said here and now. Sometimes I will struggle to bring you myself. The road to unconditional self love, is after all, a trying one. Nevertheless, truth hacking my way through self care, self love, and building communities through wellbeing is an eternal joy that I found futile to continually shy away from. I like lists. You like lists too right? Some things I've been called or known for...
a fashionable non-granola Buddhist
a multi-passionate, research obsessed, dreamer doer, conscious curator, attemptive-meditator, occasional yogi doing her best at manifesting self love
freelance life liver
experience curator
spiritual thinker
life stylist
oh and fashion stylist, of course
but most of all I am a word architect fueled by ice cream, books, good vibes, conscious consumption, intentional travel and absolutely beautiful things
LIBRARY OF GROWTH
Here ye, here ye.
Let us all unite in this public offering. My bumble library of growth. In every facet of what I do with my public words, I'd love to know that I am supporting women anywhere in the world to get just one step closer to loving, accepting, and exploring a deeper relationship with themselves. It brings me utter tickled-pink-with-joy to foster a community of female-led positivity online and vibrating throughout world. If I can be a catalyst for change and growth within YOU, well damn, that's a bonafide Tom Cruise mission accomplished. And while we're at it, let's not take life so fucking seriously! We are allowed to cry, as society suspects we do on the daily, but let's also laugh our asses off. Deep dirty belly laughs. Women are complex beings, and most of us are on that badass path to improve + evolve since we know our humanity is our power. Not our weakness. And ya know what, we all have humanity in common. Duh. So I’m beyond thrilled you’re here…my fellow human.

What do you do when you grow up fantasizing about the fashion industry while feeling like the consummate ugly duckling in a very large pond? Read more about my DIY makeover of the decade here.
ABOUT THE FRIEND SEARCH COLUMN:
Oh hey girl, hey! Want to be friends? I bake cupcakes and give good massages. I’m allergic to cats, but I promise to love your little asshole of a scratcher like they were my own. I will listen to all your dating woes and never force you to create a new dating profile against your will…as seen in every Rom Com climatic scene, ever.
I wish I could blame all my issues on being a New York transplant in Los Angeles - only the worse city ever to make new friends. But alas, I’ve been moving from new town to new town as many years as Trump has been biohazard orange. So that might be the real culprit. Either way, since moving to LA as my current permanent place of residence so I can finally plant some much needed roots, I found that its quite a tough city to penetrate. Whereas born and bred devout New Yorkers like myself know, NYC itself can be your best friend, that’s how alive and pulsing it is. Although my dream was always to try out the west coast, all those commercials with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Anna Farris aren’t quite holding up. Fun and sun yes, but people who are willing to suffer through backups on the 405 just to see you? Not so much. I’m not sure why the friend-making culture in certain cities is increasingly becoming like this. Maybe life is already so hard people are just hustling their way through the minutia of it all? But lately as a reformed workaholic, I’m just like…want to have a drink or grab some coffee and like, not hustle for a minute?
Come sail away with me on a friend search. See all my friend finding posts here.
