Lynnette and Catie
About Lynnette: I am 24 years old and currently live in an apartment in Seattle, Washington. I am a CPA by day and life connoisseur by night. I am married to my best friend, who is currently a student. I love to try new things, but because we live on a tight budget, I don’t often get the chance to try everything I’d like. Therefore, I have come to love the thrill of bargain hunting! I also thrive on constant improvement and love to compare notes with my friends about virtually everything, living vicariously whenever possible. Random facts:

- Guilty Food Pleasures: red wine, organic dark chocolate, sorbet
- I drive a: 2008 Honda Fit
- Hobbies: running, yoga, experimental cooking, writing
- MBTI: INTJ
- Dream Job: College Professor and Mom
- Favorite Thing to do when I’m alone: dance around the apartment

About Catie: I’m 23 years old and work in publications in Chattanooga, TN. I live with two fabulous women in a bright red house and have been with my wonderful boyfriend for three years. As a recent college grad with loans out the yin-yang, I am skint most of the time. However, my mummy taught me never to sacrifice style and comfort just because your cash flow is small. In my free time, I frugally pursue my love of the eco-chic lifestyle, designer clothes, and whole foods. My interests change and vary. Today, however:
- MBTI: INFP
- Caffeine: soy lattes and fair-trade Ethiopian coffee
- Guilty food pleasures: bread, French cheeses, dirty martinis, chocolate, and Thai food
- Currently in rotation: Under the Pink by Tori Amos, Happy Birthday by Modeselektor, Children Running Through by Patty Griffin, and (thanks to Lynnette) Youth Novels by Lykke Li.
- Guilty fashion pleasure: buying designer jeans on eBay
- Hobbies: pilates, internet shopping, reading, organizing my Netflix queue, hiking, trying on shoes, journaling
- Dream job: senior editor for an independent press or editor-at-large for a travel or fashion magazine
- Transportation: sneakers, whenever possible; otherwise, my 2004 Civic coupe
- Favorite thing to do alone: crank up the music, lay on the floor and think
- Dream destination: backpacking around Europe
