Which three words best describe your style? Spontaneous, Edgy, Diverse

Your Spontaneous Edgy Style
If only we could all look so stylish and put-together while running our own businesses and raising three kids under the age of 5! We love Brooke's cool and natural style, which is fresh and edgy, but not overdone. She looks just as stunning with minimal makeup as she does wearing gorgeous her BEE Cosmetics red lipstick.
