It’s hard to believe that today will be the 100th time posting my blog, The Report! Way back during the summer of 2012, a marketing consultant advised and encouraged me to write a life stylist blog. I said, “What? Me? Write?” And 100 blogs later, here I am touting as a life stylist blogger and loving every single minute of it! My blog has officially bloomed and I’d like to share what I think are my top five moments. Here we go…
1. The Gooiest & Tastiest Mac-n-Cheese Ever!
This was my very 1st blog and as cheesy and as short as it was, the readership response gave me the energy to move forward. That Mac-n-Cheese sounds so good right about now. I think I need to make some!
2. Top 10 Reasons Why I Love My Mom
This blog received the most hits! (Of course, now that I’m also video blogging, the hits and views have really skyrocketed!) But who doesn’t love their mom or someone who acts like their mom? Moms are special and that’s why I think you all enjoyed reading this blog. I love you, Mom!
I wrote this blog because I can’t tell you how many times people ask me what to bring in their purse or bag for a flight. To this day, I still pack the same things, but now I have my “R” essentials bag that keeps these items all neatly packed in one simple, lightweight bag. If you’d like to have me create a customized “R” essentials bag for you, Just Ask!
4. My 7 Part Series, The Many Sides of Robin
I developed this series after I completed a photo shoot. I wanted to incorporate a twirl effect in all the different outfits from the photo shoot for my website, so what better way than to share my experience with all of you fashionistas? It was important for me to describe how I created these outfits and to also include the back-stories that went along with them. I had a blast with the photographer who made it fun and fashionable! I have a stylish knack (well, so I’m told!) for putting together outfits, so if you don’t have the time or energy, I’d love to help you with my wardrobe consulting services. Just Ask!

5. Top 10 Places to Visit in Kenya
One of my clients asked me to create a special safari birthday for her. So, Kenya was the destination! The trip was magical and memorable. I helped find the perfect safari guide, helped organize a fun-filled itinerary, and created a useful game drive bag. Adventure travel trips like this are a forte of mine to research, to organize and to help create wonderful memories for my clients. Go Team Africa!

A special shout out goes to my wonderful website designer and creative director, Mark Elster and to my cute, sassy and energetic editor, Jennifer Cowan.
