I’m Maria and welcome to BellaStyleLiving.com – my little corner of the internet. I started Bella Style Living in 2018 to fulfill a creative void in my life.
I’ve always been a lover of fashion, beauty, and an aesthetically pleasing and serene lifestyle. After getting married, having a couple of kiddos, and years in the banking industry, I decided to get back to occupying what little time I had left in the day to create this site.
I truly find great joy as a content creator sharing style and beauty finds with my community and am so happy you are here to join us.

My hope for BSL is to foster a community of women who can come together, understand, and share in the same interests, struggles, and life moments. Being a mother and wife is my greatest joy but not my only identity.
I feel it’s just as important for women to find their purpose and own interests. Only then can you completely and intentionally pour into your loved ones. I want to create a space where you can come get inspired with styling, beauty, and lifestyle tips and truths that can serve you.

You can find me on Instagram, YouTube, and here on the blog. I enjoy sharing affordable fashion finds, cruelty-free beauty, home decor, wellness, and other lifestyle finds.
Stay in touch by subscribing to my newsletter here. I share sales and exclusive content you won’t want to miss. And if you need to get in touch in a hurry, you can email me at maria@bellastyleliving.com
Stay awhile and take a look around. Don’t forget to stop by The Shop and also check out these popular posts.
