Hey there, Beauty—welcome to This Elegant Life!
This Elegant Life is a blog for women like you and I. Those of us that aren’t perfect, who pick at our flaws, who feel they’re too busy with everyday life to take that (much needed!) time for themselves.
Many of you may be moms, some of you are not. Some of you like to dress up, some of you don’t. Some of you may have a taste for the finer things, while some of you prefer to keep it practical.
We all come from different walks of life—we are unique in our own unique ways. We all have our “things” that define us and make us who we are.
About Me
My name is Chelsea Denham. I am a wife to the most amazing, supportive, and sexiest man alive, and mom to the sweetest (and strongest) little boy. I have a love for clothes, makeup, shoes, accessories, and even home decor.
As someone who’s spent far too much time and energy picking at my own “blemishes”, I have a passion to encourage others. I want to love and build up those who feel they’re not enough, who think they don’t have time, and who compare themselves with others.
Why I Started This Elegant Life
I’ve always liked to look stylish. Hair, makeup, shoes—I love it all! In the last two years or so after having my first baby, I’ve tried to find new ways to look good while not spending a lot of time and money. I have always believed that when you look good, you feel good.
As a mom, I sometimes find myself making excuses to not do the things I love. It’s so easy to get caught up in the business of everyday life. Laundry, grocery shopping, diapers, tantrums—the list goes on. Sound familiar? I can’t be the only one.
My goal for This Elegant Life is to encourage other busy moms who feel they don’t have time for themselves. I’m here to prove that you don’t have to spend a lot of time or money to look good, and feel great.
I’m so happy that you’re here! I should mention that I’m not a professional makeup artist or hair stylist by any means. I’m simply a mom and a wife who appreciates looking good for my husband (and myself!) while being the best mom that I can be to my son.
