What it’s all about
Leslie Karen is a blog dedicated to women who are forever curious, passionate and don’t believe in limits. I love DIY’ing and trying to figure out how to do things, traveling, designing interiors, finding good restaurants, fashion and reading. Basically just about anything creative and artistic. I spent all of my adult years in the finance/marketing world professionally (except for two stints in the nightclub and restaurant business), but always loved the creative arts.
I want women to feel their most beautiful, creative, passionate, adventurous and self-loved. Leslie Karen is all about showing women how they can re-imagine their lives.
I get so excited interacting with creative and artistic people. Curiosity may have killed the cat, but it’s never failed anybody. Each week I will take you with me as I explore all things. I invite you along on this exciting journey with me and we’ll figure it out together.
We will explore Creative Design together:
-
Creatively Design your Home
-
Creatively Design your Work
-
Creatively Design your Relationship
-
Creatively Design your Life
Fun Facts
- I looooove Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups but only after they’ve been refrigerated.
- My first car was an orange Volkswagen Beetle with a broken gas gauge and I only ran out of gas once…haha

- Ever since I was a little girl I’ve had a corn cob phobia so I always cut my corn off the cob.
I am based in Atlanta, GA and live in a fixer-upper with my rescue pit mix dog, Domi, who I’m obsessed with.
Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.

The 40 Best Spring Nails You Absolutely Need Right Now
Spring is here, and you know what that means: pollen is everywhere, my head feels like it’s about to explode and if I rub my itchy eyes anymore, I’m not going to have any eyeballs. Maybe I should just get a yellow manicure so I can blend in. But I digress.
Spring Style Just in Time for Easter and Beyond
Ah, spring. That magical time of year when we collectively emerge from our winter gloom, blink at the sunshine like confused baby deer, and suddenly feel the urge to clean everything in sight. Flowers are popping up, the air smells fresh, and people everywhere are pretending they don’t still have a rogue Christmas decoration lurking in a corner somewhere.
40 Things That Are Giving Me Life Right Now
Every once in a while, I stumble upon things that make me audibly gasp—like the internet just reached out, grabbed my soul, and whispered, “This is for you.” These finds aren’t always practical (or budget-friendly), but they fuel my creativity, get my wheels turning, and make me dream in high definition. I do a roundup of these items every month and bring them to you.
The Biggest Spring and Summer Fashion Trends – Part 2
Ah, spring and summer—the seasons of sunshine, rosé, and the eternal struggle of looking effortlessly chic while sweating profusely. Lucky for us, fashion’s latest trends are here to either elevate our wardrobes or make us question every life choice. This year, the style gods have spoken, and the holy trinity of Sheer, The Color White, and Fringe reigns supreme.
The Biggest Spring and Summer Fashion Trends – Part 1
It’s that time of the year when I look at the trends in fashion for the Spring and Summer and see what’s what. This year is all about the pastels and I had to break the blog post into two parts because the pastels were so much!

I found it hard to find a designer who did not buy into this trend. But it’s not your Grandma’s or a child’s pastels; it’s surprisingly modern and chic.
Go Green or Go Home: Why St. Patrick’s Day Is the Perfect Excuse to Embrace Green in Fashion & Interiors
Ah, St. Patrick’s Day—the one day a year when it’s socially acceptable to drink green beer, pinch strangers, and dress like a walking shamrock. But beyond the parades, pub crawls, and questionable leprechaun costumes, St. Patrick’s Day is actually a fantastic excuse to rethink the color green in both fashion and interior design. Because let’s be honest—green is so much more than just a holiday gimmick or the shade of regret after one too many pints of Guinness.
