Welcome to Live Well Be Fabulous
Inspiring You to Explore the Life of Your Dreams!
Taking on the World, One Artsy Goal at a Time
First, let me explain that Live Well Be Fabulous is a blogazine, the combination of a blog’s personal style of speaking to its reader and a magazine’s photography based layout. The result? A visually stimulating experience that offers the best of both worlds in one stop. Pretty cool, right?
Located in the heart of beautiful North Carolina, the Live Well Be Fabulous team finds many exciting events to write about. Our online home includes inspiring articles about affordable travel, fashion, and home decor!
A Little History
What makes Live Well Be Fabulous so totally awesome is this community of amazing people. When I started this site back in 2014, I knew I’d meet plenty of new folks — but the support and loyalty of the readers who’ve made LiWBF what it is still amazes me every single day.
I’m KaSonndra — author, creator, and your Editor-in-Chief and Creative Director. I oversee the look and feel of everything here, and I pour a whole lot of heart into bringing you the best content I can.

We’re obsessed with all things Mediterranean here at Live Well Be Fabulous. Well, maybe I should correct that to say I’m obsessed with all things Mediterranean. I love the lifestyle so much that I even remodeled the ranch house I bought ten years ago to look exactly like one of my favorite author’s homes, a villa called Bramasole. Our writers live in various regions of the Mediterranean and are key to help bring the essence of this beautiful region to your inbox each month in a series called the Mediterranean Muse.

1. Fashion
A HUGE part of my life. A long time ago, I took modeling classes at John Casablancas and walked out thinking: “Now what the heck do you do with a modeling certification?” No scouts were breaking down doors for a 5’4″ girl with big dreams. Fast forward a few years, and now I’m using everything I learned to bring you tons of great style ideas! Here are some reader favorites.
2. The Fit & Thrifty Diva
Years ago, a workplace wellness program changed my life for good. I started tracking my steps, laced up my sneakers — and on April 12th, 2015, I ran my first half marathon! All 13.1 miles, and I’ve never felt better. The Fit & Thrifty Diva series covers fitness from the inside out: how I trained, how I lost 20 lbs doing it, and how you can start right where you are.
3. Inspiration
Outside of LiveWell Be Fabulous, I also read, write, and review books. I write gothic romance and romantic suspense, and I love every bit of building worlds for you to get lost in. You can read all about the stories I create here and visit my official author website here. I also created Mystikaly, my mindfulness and lifestyle brand.
