About Me

I am Maria Cadet...

A lifestyle blogger, influencer, Youtuber, and Photographer who is passionate about sharing my personal style, beauty tips, and content creating tips and resources. I am also a self-proclaimed  coffee connoisseur,

Bella Rosa Blog launched about six years ago as an outlet to share my style. It has expanded beyond just fashion and now  highlights my real life experiences with my audience. I’m multi-passionate and never limit myself to one specific niche, which is what I showcase through my blog and social media content. My ultimate goal with my content is to inspire other women to live life with no limits and look amazing while doing it!

History

Fashion was the first way I learned how to express myself.

Growing up as an only child, I had to find ways to keep myself entertained. My favorite pastime was playing dress up in my aunt’s clothes. I put on fashion shows. I modeled and strutted through the house for hours. I even took the old fabric and sewed them into new clothes for my dolls. I loved the feeling of getting all dressed up. It was when I felt the most beautiful.

 

Once I started high school, I joined my school’s nursing program. Being in this program meant I was required to wear navy blue scrubs and crisp white sneakers almost every day…for four years. Yes, it is as bad as it sounds.

 

The only exception to this dress code was our Dress Down Fridays. We were allowed to wear whatever we wanted as long as it was appropriate. I saw those Fridays as a chance for me to showcase my style and stand out. Dressing “down” on those Fridays really translated into dressing up for me. These dress down days were when I really found my look. I experimented with different styles and colors and was able to step into myself fashion-wise.

Starting Bella Rosa Blog

In 2014, I decided to share my style online. My goal for Bella Rosa Blog, formally stylingonabudget, was to share my passion for affordable style in hopes of showing women how to live and look fabulous on a budget. 

Since starting Bella Rosa Blog six years ago, I’ve been able to show my readers how to build a wardrobe capsule tips, and tricks for a successful thrifting experience and more. Additionally, I’ve been able to collaborate with some amazing brands and introduce my readers to new products. 

 

I believe if you look good, you feel good and I want anyone who visits Bella Rosa Blog to feel the same.
