Hey there! I’m Talitha Clevenger, the dreamer, creator, and slightly overcaffeinated mind behind Chic Charise. Fun fact: Charise is my middle name, and it means grace, which, let’s be honest, is something I rely on daily.
For years, I watched social media influencers take over the internet, effortlessly sipping matcha while inspiring the masses. And then it hit me. Why not me? Why not create a space where I can share my passions, sprinkle in a little wisdom, and build a community of women who love life, style, and all things chic? So here we are.
First and foremost, I’m a mom, which means my superpowers include locating lost shoes at record speed and making meals appear out of seemingly empty pantries. I’m also a wife, daughter, and friend, and at 28 years young, I may seem like I have it all together, but spoiler alert. I don’t. Does anyone? The good news is that life is way more fun when we are figuring it out together.
Here at Chic Charise, you’ll find a little bit of everything from mom-life tips and tried and true recipes to beauty secrets, fashion inspo, and lifestyle gems. It’s a mix of everyday magic and a few “Wait, why didn’t I think of that” moments, all wrapped up in a chic little bow.
How It All Started
God first, always. Every dream, every step, every bold leap I take is led by Him. Without His guidance, I wouldn’t be here courageously pressing publish on my little corner of the internet.
As a kid, I wanted to be a teacher because sharing what I know has always been my thing. Whether it’s the perfect mascara that won’t budge during a toddler meltdown or the exact way to make a cozy home feel effortlessly stylish, I love passing along the good stuff.
At the core of Chic Charise, my mission is simple:
✨ Keep it real because perfection is overrated
✨ Be informative but make it fun
✨ And of course… stay chic
So welcome. Grab a coffee or a glass of wine (no judgment here) get comfy, and let’s navigate this beautiful, messy, and stylish life together. ♡ xo
