Some of my readers have followed me for a really long time since 2009 to be exact. Back then Entrecard was the way to get blog traffic and I made a few friends along the way. I was into coupons big time and my blog was all about showing my friends and family how to save those dollars.

2009 |
I've since left my extreme couponing days behind as I felt limited by it. I begin my current journey and started reviewing everyday household products, new foods, and sharing my love for all things beauty. The Coupon Sista then became Stacie Sayz So.

| 2012 - 2014 |
My blog finally began to look like I wanted it to. It was a glimpse into my life and all the things I loved like nail polish, lipsticks, and casual chic fashion.

| 2014 - 2016 |
Which brings me to today. Last August, I changed my blog name from Stacie Sayz So to Stacie Raye in effort to make it more "me". Stacie Raye is a childhood nickname that my dad gave me.
So what can you expect from Stacie Raye this year?
Beauty, Beauty, and more Beauty
Of course, I will stay true to who I am and share my love for new beauty products and trends. It's what this blog is based on so I'll keep it coming.
Reviews for Women of Color
One thing that I would love to explore a bit more is reviewing beauty products specifically for women of color. I'm always trying something new and I don't always share my experience so it's time that I start sharing more.
More Hometown Reviews
This year, I'm going to be featuring more content about the city I love, Minneapolis. I am a foodie at heart and can't wait to share my thoughts on delicious new and local restaurants as well as my favorite places to shop.
So that's it in a nutshell. I am very proud of my accomplishments so far and I can't wait to see what's in store for Stacie Raye!
I want to say a special thank you to all of you who read my blog, whether on occasion or every day. Your support has been a blessing to me throughout the years!
