ABOUT DESI and TEA CUPS & TULIPS

About Desi, the woman behind Top US Life and Style Blog, Tea Cups & Tulips

Tea Cups and Tulips is a life and style blog that highlights a little bit of everything I love – outfits, skincare, and everything in between.

I was born and raised in Bulgaria – a small country in Eastern Europe. Let me start by saying that I always thought of myself as more of an analytical than a creative person up until college. I attended a high school in Sofia, Bulgaria, focusing predominantly on math and computers. Consequently, after high school, I went to college, pursuing a degree in computer engineering.

During my second year of college, I was starting to get bored, and I wasn’t sure I had chosen the right major. Around that time, I found out that I’m able to apply for a second degree while I’m still pursuing my first. I signed up for graphic and web design. This was it! I landed where I should have been from the beginning.

I started focusing predominantly on Photoshop and manipulating images, leading to my job as a digital artist and retoucher.

Tea Cups and Tulips started in 2015. At around the same time, I switched from working full-time to freelancing, and having a blog was something I’d wanted to do for many years. I wanted a creative outlet online for everything I’m passionate about – beauty, skincare, outfits. Kind of like a magazine, but a lot more personal since only one person is writing – me!

My mission is to inspire women with quick, yet effective style and beauty ideas that they can easily apply to their everyday lifestyle.

I live in Riverside, CA, with my husband and two kids. My daughter Belle is 13 years old, and my son Liam is 5.
