Hello, world. I'm Karla Bourque. I'm a happily married wife and mother. I've been writing forever I think although I'm new to Squidoo.

I'm just a typical girl that loves gorgeous things. My writing interests lean toward the romantic, and I always try to find romance in a subject when writing non-fiction. I research a thing 'til it tugs at my heart. It's the only way I know how to write and I'm usually wiped out for a day or two after I write an article.

All the proceeds of sales generated from Ebay, iTunes and Amazon sources in my articles are donated 100% to Ecotrust charity as well as possible future contest winnings. I'm a lucky gal in this life and I have a successful business. If I can give back a little, I'm happy to do so. (Neither Chic and Savvy nor Karla Bourque nor Squidoo assumes responsibility for purchases made between readers and third party merchants. All transactions are the direct responsibility of seller and buyer.)

I love nature hikes and urban exploring (finding great & unusual restaurants, art exhibits, concerts, and events.)

My hobbies are reading, writing, photography, and home decorating.

I currently operate a boutique, and I have a secure user-friendly website loaded with a few of my favorite luxury gift items. I'm careful to select products that are organic, fair trade, enviornmentally friendly, and cruelty free. It's amazing I've managed to find some things that are also beautiful, luxurious, and indulgent. And Chic and Savvy Online Boutique offers its best no excuses full guarantee for thirty days. Check it out now.

***Chic and Savvy is currently closed pending a move to Texas. "Fun" and "Freebies" buttons are still operational so feel free to visit and play around. But all shopping buttons are currently disabled. If you click on the banner above, you won't lose your place at this Squidoo lens. The banner opens a new window for your browsing pleasure.
