About me

Hello! I’m Anna Smith (Ryzhenko), the sole voice behind woman-trend.com – welcome to my happy corner of the internet. I’m a lifelong fashion, beauty, and style enthusiast (and a proud mom of two, ages 9 and 7) with an unshakeable belief that style should be playful and empowering. In my world, trying a new lipstick or mixing up your wardrobe should be fun, not intimidating. Fashion isn’t about perfection or following strict rules – it’s about self-expression and feeling good in your own skin. I’ve seen firsthand how putting on an outfit you love can instantly boost your mood (there’s even science to back that up – wearing something that makes you feel amazing can trigger feel-good brain chemicals that boost your confidence!). My journey is all about embracing the joy in style and encouraging others to do the same.

How woman-trend.com Came to Life

I started woman-trend.com to share my personal adventures in style – the daily outfit experiments, beauty discoveries, and trend try-outs that color my life. This blog began as a passion project, a place for me to document and celebrate the little style victories (and missteps!) that come with being a fashion-loving “girl next door.” Here’s a peek at what you’ll find on woman-trend.com:

• Outfit Inspiration: A diary of the outfits I put together – from casual mom-on-the-go looks to dressier ensembles – all mixed and matched with my personal twist.

• Beauty Picks & Experiments: Honest talk about the makeup and skincare products I’m loving or testing out (whether it’s a budget-friendly drugstore mascara I’m raving about or a daring new lipstick I’m nervously trying!).

• Trend Trials & DIY Hacks: Fun forays into the latest trends I can’t wait to try, plus my attempts at those viral DIY fashion hacks (some successes, plenty of laughs along the way).

I pour my heart into each post, hoping to inspire you to play with your own look. woman-trend.comis like having a style-savvy friend who’s learning and experimenting right along with you.

Keeping It Real – My Style Philosophy

I’m not a trained fashion expert or guru – just your friendly neighbor with a big passion for all things style. That means you’ll get the real me on woman-trend.com, unfiltered and down-to-earth. Whether I’m gushing over an amazing $10 thrifted jacket or sharing a candid fail (like the time I tried cutting my own bangs – yikes!), I keep things light-hearted and authentic. I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment that fashion is for everyone and meant to be enjoyed. My approach is all about learning as I go and bringing you along for the ride. If a new trend excites me, I’ll dive in and report back with my honest thoughts. If a product doesn’t live up to the hype, I won’t sugarcoat it. My hope is that by keeping it real, I make style feel more accessible. After all, we’re two friends figuring out this fashion thing together, one fun experiment at a time. And if along the way an outfit gives us that little extra spring in our step – even better!

Life Beyond the Blog

In my downtime, you can often find me enjoying life’s simple pleasures – like sipping a latte at a cozy café and flipping through glossy fashion magazines – or hunting for a great vintage treasure at the local thrift shop. (I can spend hours thrifting; there’s nothing more thrilling than uncovering a unique piece with a story!). As a mother, I’m also juggling school runs and family time, so I truly appreciate easy, upbeat style tips that work for real life. My kids keep me grounded (and sometimes even give their mini fashion opinions on my outfits), and they remind me that confidence and a smile are the best accessories of all. This mix of family and fashion is a big part of who I am – and it definitely influences my perspective on style. I love that my readers get to see the real me, whether I’m dressed up for a date night or running errands in sneakers. Life is busy and messy and wonderful, and through it all I believe you can embrace your own kind of style (even if it means a pair of comfy jeans and your favorite tee most days!).
