About Stacey
The Bougie Buckeye — because you can have both.
Hey, I'm Stacey.
I'm a Social Media Marketing Manager, content creator, and full-time Ohio girl who believes you don't need a trust fund to live a beautiful life. You just need the right information — and a friend who's already done the research.
The Bougie Buckeye started as a simple idea: what if there was a place that celebrated the good life without making you feel bad about your budget? A place that was honest, funny, occasionally sarcastic, and always on your side?
That's this. That's us. Welcome to the club.
I cover everything from Midwest hidden gems and affordable style to real parenting moments and travel hacks that actually work. If it helps you live better for less, it's on this blog.
The Bougie Way
Affordable Luxury
Looking and living well doesn't have to cost a fortune. I find the hacks, deals, and dupes so you don't have to.
Real Talk Only
No filter, no fluff. If something isn't worth your money, I'll tell you. If it changed my life, I'll tell you that too.
Midwest Proud
Ohio is home and I'm not ashamed of it. The Midwest has hidden gems, incredible food, and people who actually wave back.
Community First
This blog exists because of you. Your DMs, your questions, your 'omg same' moments — that's why I keep showing up.
Want to Work Together?
I'm always open to brand partnerships, collaborations, and conversations with brands that align with the Bougie Buckeye mission. Let's talk.
