Happy 26th birthday to me, and happy 2nd birthday to Flawless World! It’s hard to believe that I’m actually 26 and that it’s officially been 2 years since I launched this blog. This day feels monumental to me, especially because I feel like I’ve grown tremendously over the last year. 25 taught me a lot about myself and life, and the last 2 years of blogging has also taught me quite a bit about myself, how to run a business, and what my goals are for Flawless World. I’m forever grateful for every moment of life and cherish each day and try to live life to the fullest. Thank you to my loyal readers, I appreciate you more than you’ll ever know, and be on the lookout for a special email this coming Friday (September 3). To make sure you don’t miss out on this special treat, be sure to sign up for my newsletter.
With that being said, it’s time to celebrate! Cheers to 26 years on this Earth, and to 2 years of Flawless World!

Dream date: Candlelight dinner on the beach, like the one my boyfriend and I did while we were in Cabo in 2016

Favorite smell: Crystal Gardenia by KKW Fragrance or anything with vanilla
Favorite show: The Sopranos
Favorite holiday: The Fourth of July
What I was planning on my wrestling name being: Arianna Diamond, with the tagline “flawless,” which led to the inspiration and creation of Flawless World
Favorite childhood memory: Going to Foxwoods or Mohegan Sun with my parents, brother, aunt, and grandma; my brother and I loved to swim in the indoor pool and play in the arcade, or going to the beach with my childhood best friend
Favorite season: Summer
Favorite veggie: Broccoli rabe, the more garlic the better
My first job: Bus girl at a country club, but that quickly faded out and I started hostessing at a restaurant. I ended up working there until I was almost 21 and moved up to being a waitress and bartender
Favorite dessert: Cookie cupcake from my local gluten and dairy free bakery; it’s a chocolate cupcake with vanilla frosting and chocolate chips in the frosting, and on the inside is a chocolate chip cookie. It’s like heaven in your mouth
My perfect summer day: Wake up early, meditate with my boyfriend, journal, then get some work done, lay out and read, swim intermittently throughout the day, eat some good food, and watch the sunset before cozying up for the rest of the night. Basically: lots of sunshine, ocean, food, and laughter
My dream home: The beach house I’m currently living in or any other oceanfront home with immediate access to the water
If I had to pick between being able to have gluten or dairy I’d choose…: Dairy, 100%. I’d love to be able to eat chocolate or ice cream, or drink milk! Dairy is in almost everything; it’s harder to get away from dairy than gluten
I prefer people call me: Arianna; I absolutely hate when people say “Ari,” I don’t even respond to it anymore
What I want most out of this next year: To grow in business and financially, and to keep learning about blogging and growing Flawless World
Very interesting info!Perfect just what I was looking for!
