Welcome to Simply Stine!
Consider this our standing catch-up for beauty, books, and real life. — the one who actually tells you if that $60 serum is worth it, talks you off the ledge about what to wear to that event you have coming up, and always has a book recommendation you didn’t ask for but absolutely needed.
I’m Christine. Stine for short. I’ve been oversharing here since 2012. No plans to stop anytime soon.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Honest takes on beauty (yes, I’ll tell you if it’s worth the money)
- Book recommendations you didn’t ask for but will absolutely read
- Real-life chats about what to wear, what to cook, and where to go around Atlanta
- And a whole lot of “life is life-ing” moments
Because behind all of that? Real life.
PCOS, infertility, endometriosis, grief, caregiving, and navigating a childfree-not-by-choice life — it’s all part of my story, and I don’t leave it out.
This space isn’t about perfection. It’s about connection, honesty, and finding little joys wherever we can.
I share all of it alongside my husband and Penelope, our golden retriever who has fully convinced herself she runs this household. She’s not wrong.
Pull up a chair. I’m really glad you’re here. You’re one of us now.
