About
My name is Allie Eskridge, and I’m the owner of the blog Lifestyle by Allie, where I share my love for beauty, fashion, and the ever-evolving trends that shape everyday style. I am also the host of Office Hours, a lifestyle podcast that explores the realities of young adulthood through honest conversations. Whether I’m writing, creating, or podcasting, my goal is to inspire authenticity and creativity in others. When I’m not curating content, you can find me enjoying a cup of coffee and reflecting on my faith in Jesus, which serves as the foundation for everything I do.
WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
lifestyle by allie
In January 2024, I launched Lifestyle by Allie as a space to share my experiences, perspectives, and creative work across fashion, beauty, lifestyle, and communication. What began as a personal passion quickly grew into a platform where I could combine storytelling, visual branding, and public relations, which are fields that continually inspire me and allow me to connect with others who share similar interests.
​
My signature pink aesthetic is more than a design choice; it is a meaningful tribute to those affected by cancer, particularly my Aunt Courtney, who passed away when I was in middle school. Her influence shaped my love for beauty, fashion, and appreciating the meaningful moments in life. This personal connection ultimately led me to pursue a Bachelor of Arts in Public Relations Communication, along with a minor in English, at Anderson University.
​
Beyond my blog and written portfolio, I also host Office Hours, a lifestyle podcast created for young adults navigating the realities of everyday life. Honest, unfiltered, and refreshingly relatable, each episode feels like settling into a comfortable chair after a long day. Office Hours serves as a weekly catch-up with a friend, where my guests and I dive into the beautiful chaos of young adulthood. From relationships and identity to storytelling, creativity, and everyday advice, the podcast offers authentic conversations designed to connect, encourage, and inspire.
Grounded in my faith, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,” I am committed to growing both personally and professionally. Following graduation, I plan to continue my education at Clemson University, pursuing a master’s degree in communication to further develop my expertise in media, branding, and strategic storytelling.
​
Through every project, article, and episode, my goal is to create a welcoming space where people can explore their passions, express themselves confidently, and find inspiration to live with purpose and beauty. I’m grateful you’re here and excited to share this journey with you
