A Blog Birth

Don't worry...don't worry! You're in the right place!

I'm still the same ol' me...just with a new design and...{dun dun dun...for those of you who totally missed the large and in charge header that greeted you on your way in}...a brand spankin' new blog name!!

That's right party people! Today we announce the birth of Southern Mess!

Never in a million years did I think I'd rebrand myself and get away from "Beautiful Mess" but as they say, change is good and it was time for a change. I've never been more excited for my little baby blog! Southern Mess, in my opinion, is much more fitting and for once in my blogging life five other people don't share the same blog name as me. (A special thank you to my girls Katie, Shay and Whitney for helping me with the name!)

I know a lot of you have referred to me as "Beautiful Mess Steph" over the years so I decided to keep the "Mess" part in an effort to ease the transition into "Southern Mess Steph". See? I was thinking about y'all throughout the entire process!

While I still have a few tiny little tweaks to make this morning, and some updating to do to my pages, take a look around and let me know how ya like it! The mason jars, the flowers, the blue, the fonts and my most favoritist feature...a LIVE Instagram feed! I feel so fancy!  Do you love it as much as I do?! {{please say yes!}}

And finally...a HUGE shoutout to my designer, Whitney Vass at Heart & Arrow Designs for putting in countless hours and returning my fifty bazillion last minute emails! She was a saint to work with and obviously, did an incredible job! (Mad design skillz, y'all!)

Welcome to the world, Southern Mess! 6 pounds, 7 ounces of pure internet joy!
