PROFILED on vmac+cheese today!

As part of the “Behind the Scenes” series!

I hope you’ll join me over at vmac+cheese to learn a little more about me, from a personal standpoint! Every week, Victoria asks a different blogger some very thought-provoking questions that really made me sit and ponder — I definitely got a lot of out of the post, and I hope you do too!

For more, go check it out!

I have also made kind of a big announcement there today (that I promise to do a follow-up post on here soon).

    Beautiful post Erika. I know closing Wardrobe Stationery was a really hard decision, but you have to go with your gut, and it seems like this is the right move for you. You have to live for the day and unfortunately those days seem to fly by. I wish you all the luck when and if you decide to try for #2. :) xx

    Hey girl – sorry about the close of that chapter, but so excited about the time it will open up for you. I know you know what is best for you and how to prioritize your life, and you certainly are not closing it for lack of success. You are the best!

    Great feature, Erika! I love Victoria’s blog and was so happy to see you featured. I loved learning more about how you started your company, came up with the name and your blogging adventure. Also really loved learning more about you! What women’s organization is it? Do they have a group in NYC?
