Nail color currently on your hands and feet:

Essie ‘Ballet Slippers’ is my fave. It’s a great simple nude, and it pairs perfectly with almost every outfit.

Your whole day was just cancelled and your schedule is wide open, what do you do:
Kellee
Start off with a seven-mile run, then grab a green juice and a mani-pedi, followed by a nice long massage at a seedy place downtown. I’d end the day at Ed’s Lobster Bar - order a lobster roll or caesar salad and sip on a slightly dirty martini with two olives and a twist.

Your last great read and why you enjoyed it:
Kellee
The Obstacle is the Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into Triumph. Every entrepreneur should read this book. It’s incredibly powerful and inspiring, and teaches everyone to view their own obstacles as opportunities.
R&S
Your celebrity crush and why:
Kellee
Chris Pine. He is a Ken doll, IRL. Enough said :)
R&S
Your last takeout order:
Kellee
Pho or ramen. It’s the perfect comfort food, and I can’t get enough of it.

What is the best gift you’ve ever received:
Kellee
My heart necklace. It was my mom’s and my dad gave it to me after her passing a few years ago. It’s my most cherished possession, and it’s actually the Loverly heart logo. I carry her with me, wherever I am and wherever I go.
R&S
The trend you hope never goes out of style:
Kellee
Brides letting their bridesmaids choose their own dresses for the wedding. Seriously, it’s something I never want to see go away. For the bride, it’s less of a headache, and for the girls, it’s the perfect opportunity to find something that works for you. That freedom is everything.
R&S
Go-to workout song on your most recent playlist:
Kellee
“This Is What You Came For” by Calvin Harris and Rihanna. I am a Barry’s Bootcamp loyalist, so I love a good pump up song to get me geared up for cardio.

Your motto in life:
Kellee
Don’t sweat the small stuff.
